Shrey Koroyd

AN EVOLUTION IN CRICKET HELMET SAFETY

A NEW MARKET

For the past decade, Koroyd has been raising the performance level of action sports products, predominately in helmets.

Over that ten year period, our R&D and design teams have optimised the integration of Koroyd to support many brands in different markets to improve protection and enhance the user experience.

No longer is Koroyd specific only to action sports, it’s also being harnessed in many other instances where energy absorption is key. Cricket is our latest application where we have designed a solution to protect batsmen and women from direct and angled cricket ball impacts.

A NEW PARTNER

Shrey is a market leader in cricket helmets and one of the most sought after manufacturers by top class international cricket players. Including for example, Joe Root, the current England Captain.

After several years of helmet development, Shrey officially launched in 2013. Since then, the brand has managed to ascend to the place it holds in the market today.

Shrey is dedicated to staying at the leading edge of innovation. This philosophy ties in with Koroyd’s desire and goal to be pioneers in protective solutions to reduce the risk of injury and severe damage.

IMPACT PROTECTION

Koroyd’s welded tubes crumple instantly and consistently on impact, absorbing maximum force in a controlled manner, minimising energy transferred to your head.

DIRECT & ANGLED

This unique behaviour helps to protect your skull and brain from direct and angled impacts which may reduce the risk of suffering a life-changing injury.

AIRFLOW

Air flows consistently through the open-cells, whilst hot air from your head can easily escape, ensuring more efficient cooling in the most intense conditions.

ULTRALIGHT

Koroyd features the world’s thinnest walled tubes, resulting in a structure which is 95% air. This reduces weight and enhances comfort without compromising on safety.
