The Arai Difference
The Art & Craft
Or, How to Put a Robot Out of Work.
At Arai, we are not opposed to technology when it improves the quality of our product. Our face openings, for example, are cut by a laser-wielding robot. And our paint shop uses the most advanced application techniques available.But the heart of every Arai helmet is a shell crafted by a single person, slowly and carefully, by hand. After three generations of making helmets, we believe it’s still the best way to provide our riders with the utmost in lightness, roundness and protective strength.

Experience Makes The Difference
With nearly 70 years of experience designing and building helmets, the Arai family continues to build upon proven performance. Improving on what works, even if only a little, can have profund results. Evolution of performance, built upon a history of experience.

Proprietary AR Mat
A mechanically expanded fiber mat, developed for Arai, provides a bonding medium for the various layers of Arai's Complex Laminate Construction shell to bond to, increasing strength with minimal weight.
The Art & Craft
Dedication to Every Detail
Every pair of eyes and hands that come into contact with an Arai helmet during the building process contribute to the quality control process. Every employee at Arai takes great pride in their part of building an Arai, and as a result, have a personal desire to make sure that every helmet they send out the door is the very best it can be.
