Helite CO2 Cartridge

Helite is a pioneering safety technology brand originally founded in France by Gérard Thevenot. The company specializes in wearable airbag technology for motorcyclists, equestrians, and cyclists. This specific CO2 cartridge (often referred to as a ‘Kapsel’ in German-speaking markets) is a critical component designed to inflate protective garments upon a fall or collision.

The brand is owned and managed by Helite SAS, which maintains its headquarters and primary production facilities in Dijon, France. While certain raw metal components may be sourced internationally, the engineering, testing, and final assembly remain under the direct control of the French parent company to ensure strict safety standards. The product is distributed globally through specialized sports and motorcycle retailers.
