Gobi Over Hat
by UVeto Australia

Serious protection. Cleaner profile.

The UVeto Gobi Over Hat is designed to add high-level sun protection to hard hats while maintaining a streamlined, lightweight fit for industrial environments. Worn over most hard hats and helmets, it provides extended coverage across the neck and sides of the head without the bulk of larger wraparound systems. Built from UPF50+ rated fabric, it helps reduce UV exposure during long outdoor shifts while remaining breathable and comfortable in high heat conditions. The releasable rear panel improves airflow when conditions change, while micro mesh versions include centre ventilation panels designed to align with hard hat vents for improved cooling performance.

Unlike simpler neck flaps, the Gobi Over Hat creates more structured side and rear coverage while still integrating cleanly with industrial PPE systems. Dedicated openings accommodate earmuffs and helmet-mounted accessories without interfering with fit or usability. This is the solution for crews needing stronger hard hat sun protection without moving to a full-wrap hood system.
