A passion for safety
hit-air
Since 1998
hit-air is the first airbag vest on the market with over 23 years of experience and innovation in safety.
In 1998, after more than 3 years of research and development, the Mugen Denko company launched in Japan the first hit-air airbag system for motorcyclists and riders.
Since then, Mugen Denko has continued to innovate and improve the performance of its products, and has been rewarded with numerous prizes awarded by the largest European exhibitions, such as the Brussels Invention Fair, the Salon du Horse or Motorcycle in Paris.
Quickly hit-air gained a reputation for high reliability with some of the largest motorcycle equipment manufacturers who choose to implement the hit-air system into their own products.
More and more police forces, gendarmeries and firefighters are also adopting hit-air jackets for their protection, for example in Japan, Spain, Brazil, China, Dubai and Switzerland.
After selection from the various market players, the French National Gendarmerie has also equipped its motorcyclists.
