With V-Gard GREEN helmets, MSA continues its tradition of innovation by introducing the world’s first protective helmet made from renewable resources. Designed to protect more than just your head, these helmets are produced using green high-density polyethylene (GHDPE), a biopolymer derived from sugarcane-based ethanol. Because sugarcane grows faster than it is harvested, GHDPE is considered a renewable resource. Like traditional V-Gard helmets, V-Gard GREEN helmets are also recyclable and can be kept out of landfills, bearing the “Number 2 Plastics” symbol. In addition, they offer environmental advantages by reducing carbon emissions and lowering atmospheric CO₂ levels due to their plant-based material composition.
