Bump caps are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to protect the wearer from minor head injuries caused by bumps, scrapes, and knocks. Unlike hard hats, which are intended to shield the head from more severe impacts, bump caps are lighter and offer protection against less intense hazards typically found in environments where there is a risk of hitting the head on stationary objects like low ceilings, pipes, or machinery parts.
Bump caps provide an effective and comfortable solution for protection against low-level hazards in less hazardous work environments.
