Paraclete Aviation Life Support Announces Corporate Expansion

July 8, 2022 — Paraclete Aviation Life Support continues its upward momentum with the announcement of the company’s new office location, increasing its square footage by 84% to accommodate the helmet manufacturer’s increasing demand for its DOI-USFS certified helmet product line of its research-based Aegis and Aspida helmets as the company increases its presence into diverse segments of civilian and military markets — air ambulance/HEMS, agriculture, law enforcement, wildland firefighting, and federal and state agencies — as well as expanding its distributor connections throughout the world, with the company’s recent decision to secure a distributor in Germany, Commercial Helicopter Services [CHS].

Paraclete further strengthens its global presence in the rotor- and fixed-wing helmet market, extending the company’s international footprint with the recent expansions into South Korea, Brazil and Australia, as well as its continued relationships in Europe, South  America and Asia. Emerging as a global provider of civilian aviation helmets, Paraclete continues to build strategic partnerships in 30 countries throughout the world in commercial and military markets since its launch in 2014.

“Our entire mission is designing aviation helmets with innovation, technology, and modern composites for the purpose of protection and comfort,” said Paraclete President and Founder, Scott Hedges. “The decision of which rotor helmet to wear is based on comfort, innovation and safety, the three pillars that drive Paraclete’s product designs, culminating in the company’s Aegis and Aspida helmets.”

“In response to the increased demand, the additional square footage will strengthen our workflow production and efficiency and represents an opportunity to extend our corporate structure to enhance the workplace environment for employees who now enjoy a few ‘comfort’ features,” said Hedges. The new address for Paraclete Aviation Life Support is: 1760 Jardco Drive, Clarksville, TN 37040, located in an industrial park complex, north of Nashville.

Paraclete is located in one of the fastest-growing cities in the state of
Tennessee which reflects the marked business growth, including Paraclete’s expanding operations.
