Technically Speaking:

Now that you know how well our helmets work, we'll tell you why. It is a matter of using the finest materials and assembling them with the greatest of care. Xpeed isn't about being the biggest maker of helmets; we're about being the best.

How the helmet is formed.

The manufacturing of an Xpeed helmet begins with the outer shell, which is made of either a fiberglass reinforced plastic such as FRP, or a thermo plastic of polycarbonate and ABS alloy. In the case of the fiberglass reinforced shell, a combination of fiberglass reinforced matte and composite materials are placed in a mold with resin and the heated and pressurized to form a tough, durable shell.

The thermoplastic shell, on the other hand, is made by combining polycarbonate and ABS alloy, which are melted and extruded to form the helmet shell.

Finishing/Painting Process

Once the outer shell is formed, lasers and automatic cutting machines cut out the ventilation system and mounting holes for the face shield. At that point it is on to painting. Even though the shells and internal components are manufactured using state-of-the-art techniques, most of our painting is still done by hand-and that in turn, allows us to maintain the very highest quality.

Assembly

After the shell has been formed and painted, its time to deal with the critical pieces that go inside of it. The shield, lower beadings, impact absorption liner and padding are all assembled by hand. That way, your head-and our reputation-is guaranteed.
