Leatt Corporation Inc. is in the business of
designing, developing and manufacturing protection equipment for all forms
of motor sports. Currently Leatt Corp. is the global distributor of the
Leatt-Brace™, a revolutionary neck protection system for all helmeted
sports. Other patents and products
are in development.
The company has its global headquarters in Nevada, USA, and warehouses in
California for the North American Market. In addition there are distribution
systems on all continents. Research & Development takes place in Cape Town,
South Africa and production is based in Taiwan and China.
The company distributes its products to a global customer base. Orders are
placed through an Internet based system and through the company’s
established distributor network.
The main area of focus is the prevention of neck injuries in persons wearing
a crash helmet, for
whatever purpose. The impetus for the project came from Dr. Leatt's medical
knowledge, his history as
a motorcycle racer and the many neck injuries he has witnessed. The product
not only has motor sport applications but can be used by anyone wearing a
crash helmet as a form of protection.
The inventor, Dr. Chris Leatt, oversees the Research and Development with
engineer Grant Nelson, ensuring that the Leatt-Brace™ becomes the gold
standard for neck protection. The design and
marketing of the Leatt-Brace™ is the responsibility of National Sportsmen,
Mark Hopkins and Karl Ebel respectively and Production Engineer Paul
Hanegraaf ensures delivery and quality control.
