Formed back in late 2007, Ayrtek ™ Limited is based in Bristol in the South West of the UK, we have pioneered a new design of helmet that was engineered from scratch when we set about improving the safety being provided to the players wearing the product.
Ayrtek™ Limited has set out to offer superior quality products in progressing sports technology with its new innovative ideas. We strive to bypass the quality of design and materials currently used in several sports field. Patents, from within the company, applied to the new designs have assisted in reducing the force generated by direct or indirect impact. Therefore, a person wearing Ayrtek™ sports gear would have the force dissipated in the form of heat so that less energy is transmitted to the wearer. Ayrtek™ ‘s latest product has seen the integration of formula one materials combined with an innovative liner in the form of a cricket helmet, which holds our patented pending technology named A.C.I.S (Air Cushion Impact System). This combination of high end materials with the liner is proven to be 300% safer than other models available on the market (BSI testing research).
As well as appearing in every major tournament since their first outing in October 2008 in the Stanford Super Series the helmets have been used by the majority of the counties in the 2011 season with an increasing number of professional players choosing to use the Ayrtek helmets. We hope this continues to increase as safety is the reason why a helmet is worn and the Ayrtek range is at the pinnacle of safety with the array of features used across the range.
In the past some of the famous and great players, like Ricky Pointing, Daniel Flynn and others, have been struck and have sustained serious injurious, while playing cricket. Therefore, to safeguard the player while they are performing, Ayrtek™ saw the need for change and invented this superior technology which would suit the requirements of a sports helmet to use against impacts.
Ayrtek™ ‘s new invention in sports technology, A.C.I.S (Air Cushion Impact System)., enables to reduce injuries while playing. This new technology enables a person to customize the helmet fitting by inflating or deflating the inner liner, in order to give additional protection to the head. The A.C.I.S is inflated by a pump and features a release valve to allow the air to be released from the unit.
