World famous for raising the bar in safety, Charles Owen & Company is celebrating its 100 year birthday as a leading British manufacturer of riding helmets and body protectors.

Roy Burek, Managing Director of Charles Owen & Company, highlighted its significance: “This is an extremely exciting time for Charles Owen; we have lots of amazing projects in the pipeline to mark our 100th year. Charles Owen has grown to be an internationally recognised brand with nearly 70% of our British made products being exported. We are marking this point in our history with a new logo. It is modern and contemporary without losing the feel of our heritage and quality that has become synonymous with Charles Owen.”
