As international cricket regulations mandate increasingly rigorous head protection standards—led by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and British Standards Institution (BSI)—global procurement managers face a dual challenge: maintaining strict compliance while optimizing manufacturing lead times and unit margins. Classpo India serves as an integrated OEM/ODM manufacturing partner, providing certified safety headgear tailored to precise buyer specifications.
In high-impact protective headgear manufacturing, minor deviations in EPS foam density, shell shell thickness, or visor steel tensile strength can result in catastrophic compliance failures. Many overseas buyers encounter significant supply chain friction including inconsistent batch testing, unannounced material substitution, and rigid minimum order requirements that tie up working capital.
Our engineering workflow directly solves these pain points. Located in Jalandhar, Punjab—India’s premier sports manufacturing hub—Classpo India operates fully auditable production lines. We conduct raw material density verifications, continuous drop-impact simulations, and three-stage AQL 2.5 quality control checks before any container dispatches to foreign ports across North America, Europe, Oceania, and Africa.
Our technical range spans four specialized helmet tiers, built to serve elite international players, county clubs, university academies, and youth development programs.
Designed for professional match conditions. Ultra-light Grade 5 Titanium grille paired with a carbon-reinforced hybrid shell and dual-density EPS liner.
Pinnacle shock energy dissipation for fast-bowling conditions. High-tensile steel wire visor with extended temple protection and active air channel venting.
The industry benchmark for commercial club programs and retail distributors. High-impact ABS shell with powder-coated steel grille and washable antibacterial liner.
Specifically proportioned for young players. Scaled facial protection gap, lightened shell thickness, and micro-dial rear fitment for growing athletes.

Understanding the biomechanical physics of impact absorption enables buyers to make informed trade-offs between protection, weight, and production costs.
The outer shell provides initial penetration resistance and distributes kinetic energy across a wider surface. We utilize high-impact injection-molded ABS for cost-effective resilience and carbon-fiber/Kevlar composites for elite weight reduction and flex rigidity under 160 km/h seam-ball strikes.
Below the outer shell lies a multi-density Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) core. Our automated steam-chest molding yields uniform cell density that crushes at calculated rates upon impact, dissipating peak G-forces before rotational or linear acceleration transfers to the cranium.
The facial visor must maintain rigid deflection gaps under high-momentum force to prevent ball intrusion into the eye orbital or nasal bridge. We engineer laser-welded Titanium Grade 5 (50% lighter than steel) and cold-drawn high-tensile steel wire treated with anti-glare epoxy coatings.
Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), our shell air vents are angled to funnel air across the parietal liner without compromising structural wall integrity. Combined with removable 3D moisture-wicking cheek pads, players experience optimal thermal dissipation in hot climates.

All our match-grade cricket helmets are engineered and manufactured in strict alignment with BS 7928:2013+A1:2019, the standard recognized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). This specification mandates dual testing protocols: small ball impacts (4.75 oz / 135g at 19 to 23 m/s for junior headform) and standard ball impacts (5.5 oz / 156g at 28 m/s for senior headform). Tests measure peak deceleration forces (max 250g threshold), visor intrusion prevention, and chin strap dynamic retention stretch under high-load pulls.
Grade 5 Titanium grilles offer a 40% to 50% mass reduction compared to carbon steel while delivering equal or superior yield strength. Titanium eliminates forward neck strain during extended innings and provides absolute corrosion resistance. High-tensile steel grilles provide exceptional impact protection at a more accessible unit price point, making them ideal for high-volume commercial retail and club kit ranges. Both visor options undergo laser-welding line checks and anti-glare powder coating.
Our EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) inner liners are produced using computerized steam-chest molding units that maintain strict bead density tolerances (typically 45g/L to 65g/L depending on helmet zone). Raw bead density is verified upon arrival. During molding, internal core sensors continuously monitor steam temperature and cycle time. Sample blocks from every production run undergo drop-rig impact tests onto flat and hemispherical steel anvils to verify kinetic energy absorption before final assembly.
Yes, comprehensive private-label customization is our core strength. We offer exact Pantone color matching for injected ABS or fabric-wrapped composite shells. Branding options include screen-printed or heat-transferred shell logos, laser-etched visor plates, custom color stitching on chin straps, heat-embossed ear pads, custom woven brand labels, and full-color 350gsm corrugated window boxes with custom UPC/EAN barcodes.
Our standard MOQ for custom colorway ABS shell helmets starts at 150 units per colorway. For premium carbon fiber or titanium series helmets, our MOQ is flexible at 50 units per model due to specialized layup processes. If you require standard stock shell colors (Black, Navy Blue, Green, Maroon, Royal Blue) with custom branded decals and packaging, lower starter MOQs of 100 units can be accommodated.
We manufacture both integrated and clip-on detachable rear neck guards compliant with ICC safety guidelines. Our neck protectors utilize high-density EVA foam laminated with armor-grade TPU outer plates and breathable mesh fabrics. They attach securely via heavy-duty Velcro or quick-snap rivet systems, allowing players unhindered neck rotation while shielding the vulnerable cervical spine and occipital area from deflected delivery impacts.
Our quality control system operates on an AQL 2.5 (Acceptable Quality Limit) framework across three distinct phases: 1) Incoming Material Testing (raw ABS resin purity, steel wire tensile strength, EPS density); 2) In-Line Quality Checkpoints (visor weld strength, harness pull tests under 500N static load, ventilation alignment); and 3) Pre-Shipment Audits (random sample drop impact tests, finish inspection, barcode verification). Full inspection reports and video documentation are provided to buyers prior to container sealing.
For buyers seeking exclusive, proprietary helmet shapes or unique visor geometries, our engineering team provides complete 3D CAD design, rapid 3D-printed prototyping, and CNC steel mold fabrication in Jalandhar. Mold tooling costs are transparently quoted upfront. Furthermore, we offer tooling cost rebate programs where mold fees are partially or fully refunded as bulk order volume milestones are achieved over a 12-to-24-month contract.
Physical pre-production golden samples with custom branding are dispatched within 10 to 15 working days. Bulk production lead times range between 25 and 40 calendar days following sample sign-off and deposit receipt, depending on order size and custom packaging requirements. Air freight sample delivery and expedited container loading services are available upon request.
Each helmet is enclosed in a protective microfiber draw-string bag and seated inside a reinforced 5-ply inner retail carton with internal EPE foam corner inserts to prevent scratch damage or visor displacement. Inner cartons are master-packed in 5-ply double-wall corrugated export master cartons (typically 10 to 12 units per master carton). Master cartons are palletized, shrink-wrapped, and strapped for container stability, achieving an average load of ~1,800 to 2,200 units per 20ft container.
