What makes a PE canopy the better option?
The yellow hat doesn’t only give our machines their iconic look, it also helps them to keep that look during a lifetime of heavy duty. Polyethylene is a strong, light, medium-density polymer that is resistant to corrosion and discoloration.
It’s not just vanity, it’s functionality as well. A HardHat is maintenance-free and corrosion resistant, unlike metal canopies that need several layers of special paint to fend off the effects of acid rain, salt and extreme temperatures. A HardHat will last a lifetime, without any work or maintenance from your side.
When the going gets tough… you better have a canopy that protects your investment. The HardHat PE canopy is durable, light, corrosion-resistant and virtually indestructible. At the end of the compressor’s lifetime, your HardHat will have your machine looking like new, ensuring a high resale value.

Has the HardHat stood the test of time?
Red Dot Design Award
The first HardHat was born in 2005 and got implemented on small compressors and light towers. In 2015, after a decade of proving its merit, the HardHat won the Red Dot Design Award in the category Product Design. In 2017 the 8 series with HardHat won the award again, because of its light (below 750kg) and compact design.
