About Hellberg Safety
Hellberg Safety has made personal protective equipment since 1962 and covers everything above the neck: helmets, visors, safety glasses and hearing protection, including active ear defenders with Bluetooth. Its stated ambition is to become one of the three largest head-protection brands in Europe, and it works from Hultafors Group's offices at Bollebygd in Sweden under the line "peace of mind".
Trademark record for Hellberg Safety
The USPTO record for the Hellberg Safety mark lists HELLBERG SAFETY AB as the owner of record (serial number 73533869). A trademark is often held by a group company rather than the listed parent, so the registrant's name can differ from the owner named above.[2]
