ExoTechnologies, a sustainable composite materials company, has successfully tested its first fully recyclable motorcycle helmet made from its Danu composite material, a natural fiber-reinforced thermoplastic. Danu is an alternative to traditional carbon fiber, with similar mechanical properties, but outperforming in terms of sustainability, cost-efficiency, and scalability. The material has passed global standards testing, including FIM ECE2205 and DOT. Danu offers a 14% weight reduction, 275-G impact resistance, and complete recyclability, eliminating end-of-life landfill waste. The company sees it as a new standard for responsible innovation, with potential applications in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, sports equipment, renewable energy, and marine.
