(Newswire.net — June 22, 2016) Glen Mills, PA — Unequal® Technologies is a leading manufacturer of helmets and protective sports gear made from military-grade, battle-tested composites. Originally developed for the military, Unequal’s multi-layer composites are engineered to withstand extreme battlefield conditions experienced daily by the armed forces as well as the law enforcement and government agencies. Unequal’s products are used for a variety of sports applications and the company primarily markets them to athletes in all impact sports from youth leagues to college to the pros in the NFL, MLB, NHL and X Games.
Unequal’s products are rapidly finding their way into other sports such as soccer, lacrosse, action sports, contact sports and other activities due to their strong protective power.
Holy Family Tigers, the Holy Family High School’s female soccer team, was among the first to mandate protective headgear. The team started wearing protective headgear three years ago when their leading scorer Maddie Kuzik sustained a concussion in a club play. Just recently, the team has switched to using Unequal’s products after realizing that they offered much more protection on top of looking good.
The switch was made possible by Steve Holeman, chairman of Unequal’s Soccer Advisory Board. Steve has over twenty years of experience as a Div 1 Girls soccer coach and was the former Head Soccer Coach at Auburn, UGA and Ole Miss. He is currently Lamar University’s soccer coach.
The company’s protective headgear helps protects athletes from collisions, falls and other accidents. Its military-grade composite is fortified with a combination of four ingredients that ensures maximum protection and comfort. ImpacShield® is a multilayer, semi-rigid patented polymer that blocks and redirects initial impact energy. Tridur®, a proprietary composite of coated aramid fabric, absorbs and disperses 2nd generation impact energy. The remaining impact energy is then dissipated by Accelleron®, a high-density foam that does not flatten over time. To provide athletes with form fitting comfort, a proprietary closed cell, low-density foam called Airilon® is utilized.
Apart from their headgear, Unequal features several other unique products. Their Protective Stability Insoles provide optimum stability, protection and overall foot support and their Protective Cushioning Insoles offer up to 23% more cushioning than standard OEM insoles, providing lasting comfort. They also have the Unequal® Gyro®, concealed, supplemental head padding to be fitted into football helmets.
Unequal is recognized as one of Forbes’ 100 Most Promising Companies, the No. 1 tech innovation of 2013 by Esquire.com, ESPN’s Top 15 Best Sports Innovations, and the winner of the DuPont Kevlar® Innovation Award. Stay connected on Twitter and Facebook using #UnequalProtects.
