ETTO Company Presentation Intro ETTO is part of the Norwegian HTS-group. The HTS-group are involved in several business areas related to safety, R&D, production and brand building. HTS-group was established in 1919 and created the company philosophy “Scandinavian Safety� in the mid 80s. Read more on group webpage, www.hts.no. ETTOs roots are Swedish and goes back to the start of the helmet history, starting with bicycle helmets around 1980. After domination of bicycle market together with some other major producers ETTO started producing skiing helmets in the mid 90s. At the same time ETTO joined HTS-group in 1995, making a restart of the brand after some rough years. Now ETTO is one of the leading brands on its home market in Scandinavia, and as all Scandinavians, we are looking to concur the world. As one of very few brands ETTO has its own factory in China. Producing some 100 thousands helmets each year, the factory has gained skill and competence in helmet making since the start in 2006. Factory is build after European mind and demands, as we are a Norwegian company. At our factory we have a R&D department that work closely with our Norwegian product management group. The factory does all kind of operations for both inmold and hard shell helmets. The factory also has its own test lab, intensively testing that the products meets the safety standards required. Factory is certified according to the ISO 9000 and follow all international rules for an ethical conduct.
Quality and safety are important aspects for us, so the Norwegian and Chinese R&D departments are working close together, and the R&D and quality is controlled from Norway. The factory works intensively with different programs to keep and improve quality and stability in production. ETTO Targets For us there are two main issues to fulfill, that we concentrate 100% of our focus on. The first is to produce ski helmets that effectively protects skiers and snowboarders. Therefore all our helmets are CE-certified, and meets the standard demands of protective gear in Europe, CE EN 1077. This standards requires for 3 different tests to be achieved: drop test, retention system test and penetration test. We are intensively testing all our helmets before introducing them to the market, and continue testing during the products lifetime in market. Secondly we intend to produce ski helmets that consumers shall enjoy wearing. Skiing is lifestyle, and the equipment is part of this lifestyle. To effectively protect, the product must not only be safe, it must also be attractive to wear. Design is an important part of developing a ski helmet. To get the right helmet designs ETTO has developed a long term relationship with Italian design company Design Group Italy located in Milano. This relationship started in 1992, and is getting stronger for each project. Our motto is: skiing creates identity. This motto is reflected in our designs.
ETTO Tech Material used Polycarbonate – PC is a very strong and hard plastic material used as outer shell for both inmold and hard shell helmets. PC is injection molded separately or together with inner liner. ABS – a very strong and hard plastic material used for hard shell helmets. ABS hard shells are injection molded separately from the EPS-liner. ABS works well under cold conditions. EPS – EPS is a polystyrene made as foam. It has excellent shock absorbing properties, and is used as liner in helmets together with a protective outer shell in a harder material. All our models use EPS as inner liner. EPS is injection molded separately or together with outer shell.
Production methods used by ETTO: Hard shell: Injection molded ABS or PC outer shell, combined together with inner liner of EPS. Hard shell offers very good protection through the characteristics of the PC/ABS-material which is very solid and strong material. Hard shells protect effectively from outside impact. With the hard shell technology it is possible to make very deep shells, offering a full cover protection. Inmold: PC shell fused together with EPS liner in one operation created by pressure, heat and steam. PC shell is vacuum formed to the correct shape before inmold process. Inmold has the advantage in the light weight achieved, and protection is fulfilled through the force spread characteristic offered by the PC/EPS fusion: by impact from outside the impact forces are spread over a larger area of the human skull, reducing the risk of injury.
