Pacific Helmets History
Founded in 1980 to manufacture motorcycle helmets for the Australasian market, Pacific Helmets (NZ) Ltd have since expanded their range of products to include fire helmets, rescue helmets, sports helmets, atv helmets and specialist riot helmets.
The company specialises in manufacturing and exporting safety helmet products to the exacting design and performance specifications of each customer. Pacific Helmets is working to meet and frequently set, the highest possible international standards for technical safety performance.
Flexible manufacturing processes and innovative design flair result in products which have created new dimensions in helmet safety. Pacific Helmets have an ongoing commitment to the development of new and innovative helmet products.
Over the past 20 years the company has recruited and trained a highly skilled team of management and employees. The team, together with consultants when required, has valuable and unsurpassed knowledge in helmet manufacturing.
Today the ideas and experience gained in developing the present models also facilitate the development of exciting new models and reduce the lead time required to develop new products.
The development of the Pacific Fire Helmet range for the New Zealand Fire Service was an example where a close working relationship between the experienced personnel at theFire Service and the design team at Pacific Helmets resulted in a product range that met the Brigade's standards, specifications and price. This has been the case over the years with numerous brigades throughout Australia, Asia, USA, Europe and the UK.
The senior management team is fully involved in product design, development, testing and marketing. Senior staff also have direct involvement in production and liaise directly with clients.
The company has a full quality assurance programme which is certified to ISO 9001.
