When you’re climbing, the last thing you need is your PPE catching on branches or shifting out of position.

The PROTOS® Integral Arborist Helmet has become the helmet of choice for professional arborists because everything is designed to work together. Hearing protection and the metal visor are integrated into the helmet shell, reducing snagging while keeping essential protection close at hand when you need it.

Designed and manufactured in Austria, the PROTOS combines protection, comfort and ventilation into a single system that performs through long days in the canopy.

Built for climbing

Unlike traditional hard hats with external attachments, the PROTOS Integral keeps hearing and face protection within the helmet profile. This reduces the chance of catching on branches while moving through the canopy and helps maintain excellent all-round visibility.

Comfortable enough to wear all day

The integrated ventilation system draws cooling air through the helmet to help reduce heat build-up during demanding work.

Inside, the replaceable KlimaAIR® padding manages moisture and can be removed and machine-washed at 30°C, helping keep your helmet fresh between jobs.

The unique internal fit system and adjustable neck support create a secure, balanced fit that stays comfortable throughout the day.

Designed around the way arborists work

Every function on the PROTOS can be operated with just two fingers, including the integrated hearing protection, making adjustments simple while wearing gloves.

The chin strap has been designed to remain in the correct position without interfering with the hearing protection, helping to maintain both comfort and noise reduction.

Why arborists choose PROTOS

The PROTOS Integral isn’t popular because it has the longest feature list. It’s popular because it stays comfortable, stays secure and keeps everything exactly where you need it when you’re working at height.

That’s why you’ll find it on arborists across Australia every day.
