RPB | Nova 3

Formworks worked in conjunction with the team at RPB Safety on the aesthetic design and development of their latest respirator.

Through the development of the Nova 3 a design language for the company was created which could be applied to future product development. Key design elements were highlighted and tagged for inclusion on future products to provide an instantly recognised appearance where a consumer could identify the product without the need for a logo.

Designed to optimise safety and productivity, and to minimise worker downtime, the Nova 3 helmet has a host of features that maximise its lifetime value.

The light grey surface of the helmet actively reflects heat, keeping it cool, while the vibrant green ensures visibility even in busy, low-visibility, high-risk workplaces. The back of the helmet has been designed to take decals, allowing workers to personalise their gear.
