The top model in next year's range is the Sine racing helmet. MET spent two years working not only on the new design, but also on a completely new production technology for the high-tech head protector. The decisive innovation is called ICE Lite. For the helmet shell, three individual parts are fused together to form a solid unit. Because the middle part is made from a semi-flexible, secret material, the shock absorption and therefore the safety of the helmet is significantly improved. Cleverly arranged ventilation openings and newly developed Gel02 pads with a heat compensation function instead of the classic foam pads reduce the helmet's contact surface on the head to less than 20 percent and are designed to prevent heat build-up in the head. With the Sine, Met is primarily targeting road sports enthusiasts, but competition-oriented off-road riders will also be able to benefit from the advantages of the new design.

From next year, Met will be the first helmet manufacturer in the world to use completely non-toxic and recyclable materials for its helmets. At the end of their service life, the helmets can be recycled without having to be taken apart. The sales packaging can also be fully recycled in future. In addition, Met does not use drinkable water in production and reuses the water used in the manufacturing process.
