Designer Julien Bergignat holds the creative mind behind her echo-friendly Tattoo bike helmet. The armadillo inspired helmet is made out of polypropylene from recyclables.

The Tattoo bike helmet is easy to store. Its design allows users to transform the helmet into a completely flat state, enabling its fit in a backpack.

To reassemble the Tattoo, match up the pressure clips with its corresponding wing. You’re ready to hit the road safely again in seconds.

Bergignat’s cost-effective design protects its users with expanded polypropylene (EPP). Its minimal design makes it extremely light in weight, too.
