Voi partners with Closca to encourage more riders to wear helmets

Voi Technology has partnered with Closca to create a range of reflective folding helmets.

From 12th April, Voi’s monthly pass users will be able to redeem their free Voi/Closca helmet online when they sign-up for the Voi monthly pass.

The helmets, which are ordinarily priced at €79.90 on the Closca website, will be given to Voi users free of charge and delivered to their homes (postage not included).

“Safety remains our top priority for e-scooter usage,” said Richard Corbett, general manager, UK, Ireland and Benelux at Voi. “While we continuously educate our users through our RideLikeVoila e-scooter school, our online webinars, or our AA-Drive Tech e-module, we are aware that accessibility, availability, and convenience remain the main barriers to helmet usage.

“By partnering with Closca, we give Voi’s monthly pass users easy access to a safe, lightweight folding helmet they can easily carry around. I’m sure riders will enjoy wearing this beautiful piece of safety gear!”

Carlos Ferrando, Closca CEO, added: “We do what we do best: putting good design at the service of awareness. We create products, like the Helmet Loop Reflective, designed to inspire change.

“More and more people are feeling truly responsible. And by partnering with Voi, we promote sustainable and safe mobility by growing this community of change to achieve #CitiesWithSoul.”
