Hard Hat Sun Shades

Protecting your neck from the sun while working in exposed locations is essential to preventing sunburn and associated skin cancer, which is why we offer a range of hard hat sun shades. These neck coverings fit to the back of your safety helmet and provide shelter from UV rays for the normally exposed area at the back of your neck. During winter months, they can also help deflect light rain from running down your back.

Hard Hat Neck Shades & Sun Capes

If you spend any time working out in the sun, you will know how quickly your neck can become burned. Not only is this uncomfortable in the short term, but in the long term, it can pose significant risks to your health in the form of skin cancer.

With our range of neck capes, you can shelter your neck from the sun during summer. As well as keeping the sun from your neck, these quality hard hat neck covers can prevent debris and fluids from getting down the back of your clothing, causing discomfort.

These capes can quickly be attached to their compatible safety helmets and bump caps. In addition, many of our neck sun shades offer UV50 sun protection and are compatible with other items of PPE, such as ear defenders, ensuring you do not have to choose between comfort and safety.

Things To Consider When Buying A Neck Cape

Sun Protection

Is the cape you are looking to purchase UV rated to prevent the sun's UV rays from penetrating and causing sunburn?

Visibility

Do you need a high visibility face and neck shade, or would a more subtle plain coloured or patterned design be more appropriate?

Waterproofing

Is the neck cover that you are looking at capable of repelling rain and other fluids from entering the rear of your clothing via the collar?

Ear Defenders Compatible With A Neck Cape

Ear Protection

Does the neck cover protect your ears? If so, can the ear section be pulled out of the way allowing ear defenders to be appropriately worn?

Flame Retardant

If you are welding or carrying out other high-risk hot works, you will want to consider if your hard hat sun shade is flame retardant.
