The specialist for innovative bicycle helmets and sports glasses

Ambitious bikers live for this special moment, for which years of preparation and training are needed. An extreme downhill or a trail in the mountains are challenges for which you go to your limits. But only by trusting in the perfect equipment you can concentrate on your skills or the competition. Already in the 70s, CRATONI founder Guenter Krauter learned for himself during his time as a successful motocross rider how important the equipment is for taking the risk responsible. This experience became his profession and is today the DNA of the CRATONI brand. Since 1985, we have concentrated on the task of developing the best head protection systems so that cyclists can fully dedicate themselves to these special moments. Since then, many Champions, from Olympic Champions to World Champions, have relied on the performance of our helmets.

You can call it sustainable when you opt for maximum energy efficiency. We call it looking ahead, because back in 2010 we realised our vision of a completely CO2-neutral working environment with the construction of our new headquarters in Rudersberg. Among other things, 290 solar collectors and state-of-the-art geothermal energy ensure self-sufficient, resource-saving energy generation, heating and cooling. Here you can visually experience our brand and here we can live our brand. Of course, we also attach great importance to environmentally friendly and socially responsible production and sustainable materials throughout our entire manufacturing and logistics processes.

With DHL GoGreen, our shipments are also climate-friendly and CO2-neutral.

It all starts with the product design, which is strictly oriented towards functionality and the requirements of the user. In this reduced form, our helmets and goggles develop their very own CRATONI aesthetics. We always strive for the perfect balance of safety and minimum use of materials. At this point, we benefit from our own in-house test laboratory. Here we can optimise in the shortest possible time in every development phase until the strictest test standards are fulfilled.

Every single one of our products is designed, developed and tested in our development centre in Rudersberg until it is absolutely ready for serial production. Here, an international team of enthusiastic technology freaks, designers, construction engineers, manufacturing experts and bike-infused product managers work in an interdisciplinary way on our new helmet and goggle ranges.

For us, no-compromise quality means full control in all processes. That is why every CRATONI helmet is manufactured from A to Z with our own molds. We have also implemented the strictest quality controls and audits in the production facilities of our global partners.
