Industrial protective helmets are classified by impact type and electrical class per ANSI Z89.1-2014.  All protective helmets are required to meet either Type I or Type II requirements.

MSA's new Protective Headwear White Paper, MSA Protective Headwear Type I vs. Type II Helmets, defines the hazard potential for both types of helmets, and highlights the specific hard hats, caps, and helmets MSA has to offer by category.
