Armis Extol Secures #1 Position for Type I Construction Helmet Ratings at Virginia Tech

Centurion Safety is proud to announce that the Armis Extol Safety Helmet now holds the #1 position for all Type I helmets on the Virginia Tech website’s Construction Helmet Ratings list. This achievement means Centurion now leads the rankings for both Type I and Type II construction helmets, reinforcing our commitment to delivering industry-leading head protection for workers across construction, infrastructure, utilities, and industrial sectors.

Leading the Way in Construction Helmet Safety

Construction helmet ratings are becoming increasingly important as businesses seek higher standards of protection, comfort, and performance for workers operating in hazardous environments. The latest rankings place Extol at the top of the Type I category, highlighting its exceptional performance and reliability.

Combined with our leading Type II helmet solutions, Centurion Safety now occupies the top positions across both major construction helmet classifications.

What Is a Type I Construction Helmet?

Type I construction helmets are designed to reduce the force of impact resulting from a blow to the top of the head. They are commonly used across construction sites, utilities, manufacturing facilities, and engineering projects where overhead hazards are present.

Achieving the highest-rated position demonstrates that the Extol helmet delivers outstanding protection while meeting the demands of modern workplaces.

Why Extol Stands Out

The Extol construction helmet has been developed with a focus on:

  • Advanced impact protection
  • Lightweight comfort for all-day wear
  • Secure and adjustable fit
  • Compatibility with PPE accessories
  • Durability in demanding environments
  • Modern design and worker acceptance

These features have helped make Extol a preferred choice for safety professionals looking to improve compliance and worker protection standards.

Centurion Safety: Leaders in Type I and Type II Helmet Protection

Holding the top positions for both Type I and Type II helmet ratings further strengthens Centurion Safety’s reputation as a trusted innovator in industrial head protection.

As workplace safety regulations continue to evolve, more organisations are transitioning to advanced safety helmets that offer superior performance, enhanced comfort, and greater protection against real-world site hazards.

Centurion remains committed to supporting this transition through continuous innovation, rigorous testing, and user-focused product development.

Setting the Benchmark for Construction Safety Helmets

The recognition of Extol as the leading Type I construction helmet is another milestone in Centurion’s mission to raise safety standards across the industry.

Whether you are upgrading PPE across a workforce or looking for the latest innovations in construction head protection, Centurion Safety offers solutions designed to protect workers without compromising on comfort or usability.
