Steelbird Aims for Third Global Helmet Lead
Steelbird Helmets is a company that makes helmets for riders.
They have been the number one helmet maker in the world for two years in a row, 2024 and 2025, and they want to be number one again in 2026.
They make a lot of helmets, about 9.3 million this year, and they are very safe because they make almost all the parts themselves.
The company also cares about road safety and teaches people about wearing real, safe helmets.
They even give out free helmets to schools and villages.
Steelbird has many stores in India and is also selling helmets in other countries.
They want to make even more helmets in the future to keep people safe on the roads.
Steelbird aims to become the world's No. 1 helmet producer for the third consecutive year in 2026, with 9.3 million helmets sold.
The company manufactures nearly all components in-house across nine ISO 9000 certified plants in India.
Steelbird's global initiative, 'Mission Save Lives,' aims to reduce road fatalities by 50% by 2035, supported by the UN and WHO.
In India, Steelbird addresses the issue of fake helmets through community education and helmet distribution initiatives.
Steelbird has a strong retail presence in India with 330 exclusive outlets and a network of 2,000 master distributors.
