1. Petzl Boreo
The Boreo is a lightweight all-rounder. Weighing 300 g in size S/M (330 g in size M/L), it reliably protects your head during sports climbing, mountaineering, via ferrata, canyoning, and caving. Petzl manufactures the climbing helmet using a hybrid construction, which means that beneath the hard outer shell, which distributes the impact energy from falling objects, a foam core snugly envelops the head and absorbs shocks and impacts through deformation. This makes the helmet compact in design, fits well on the head, and is very robust and durable. The flexible headband allows for individual adjustment, and it is slightly lower at the back. The large side ventilation holes ensure good temperature management. In addition to protection from impacts from above, Petzl has also equipped the Boreo with side impact protection, which provides extra safety for the head, especially during falls and impacts against rocks or ice. And when you're out at night with the helmet on, the clips and a rubber band at the back ensure a secure fit for the headlamp, providing the necessary illuminated all-around visibility at night.
2. Petzl Borea
The Borea climbing helmet is a new addition to the Petzl helmet family and a lightweight all-rounder. At 295 grams, it reliably protects the head during sport climbing, mountaineering, via ferrata, canyoning and caving. The Borea is a climbing helmet with a hybrid construction, which means that under the hard outer shell, which distributes the impact energy of falling objects, a foam core surrounds the head precisely and absorbs shocks and impacts through deformation. This makes the helmet compact in design, fits well on the head and is very robust. It can be customised using the flexible headband and is slightly lower at the neck. The design, size and headband make it possible to wear the helmet, which was specially designed for women, with long hair tied back in a ponytail. The large side ventilation holes ensure a good helmet climate. In addition to impact protection from above, Petzl has also equipped the Borea with side impact protection (TOP AND SIDE PROTECTION), which offers additional protection for the head, especially in the event of falls and impacts against rocks or ice.
3. Petzl Sirocco
Ultralight. You will hardly notice the Sirocco climbing helmet from Petzl while climbing. The front profile is designed so that the edge of the helmet is not in your line of sight.

The ventilation slots ensure that you don’t sweat too much while hanging in the blazing sun at the belay.
Comprehensive impact protection. Petzl has focused on top-and-side protection, meaning impact protection on the sides, as well as the front and back of the head. This way, the helmet protects you not only from falling rocks but also from side impacts in case you fall awkwardly and hit your head against a wall. You can individually adjust the helmet to fit your head perfectly with various adjustment options for the head and chin straps, ensuring optimal protection.

Description
Lightweight design and comfort:
- Inner shell made of EPP (expanded polypropylene) and EPS (expanded polystyrene) for weight reduction.
- The Centerfit adjustment system with its two side adjustment wheels ensures that the helmet remains centered on the head.
- The Flip-Fit system allows the headband to be placed in the lower position to ensure optimal helmet stability. When not in use and for transport, the system can be stored in the helmet shell.
- Supplied with interchangeable, absorbent comfort pads.
Head protection suitable for work at height and on the ground:
- The dual chin strap allows the user to adjust the holding force of the chin strap to adapt the helmet to different work situations: work at height (EN 12492) and work on the ground (EN 397). The clip has two positions for two different purposes: high holding force to reduce the risk of the helmet being knocked off during a fall, and low holding force to reduce the risk of strangulation if the helmet gets caught while working on the ground.
- Shock absorption through deformation of the inner shell, protection against electrical hazards, splashes from molten metal, and flames thanks to the closed outer shell.
