🪖Helmet, More Than Just a Shell: Choose Smart. Ride Safe. Use BIS-Certified Helmets

🔸From ancient cloth wraps shielding heads from heat to ‘Shirastrana’ guarding soldiers in battle, head protection has always mattered. 

🔸The term “helmet,” rooted in the medieval “helm,” which was used to describe the medieval protective headgear, now stands for all forms of head protection—whether on roads, in sports, or at work. Though modern helmets emerged in the 20th century, their mission remains the same: to protect the head and save lives.

🔸According to the World Health Organisation, correct helmet use can reduce the risk of death in a crash by more than X times and the risk of brain injury by up to 74%.
