Our history

NJ Design was founded in 2008 with the interest of designing my own karting helmet. I started my career in karting in 2004 and very quickly it was clear to me that a lot of drivers were having their own helmet design to stand out. Therefore, I began designing my own helmet but never had it painted as I stopped karting in 2009 due to lack of funds. After a 3 year break with focus on education, I was missing racing so I returned to the sport in the Formula Ford Championship and then got my first helmet painted.

With a passion to motorsport combined with my creativeness I started in 2008 with replicas of Formula 1 drivers’ helmets. A friend told me to create a Facebook page and start doing designs for drivers, and I did so. This formed NJ Design which stands for Nicolaj Jacobsen Design.

What NJ Design did different when started the buisness, was having a fast process and gave the customers the opportunity to be a part of the process and experimentation with the design trying different options with colours, styles etc.

NJ Design is a relative small business but has through the years made designs all over the world, and formed lot of strong relations. Being presented on the racetracks all over the world is a big pleasure, which is much appreciated. NJ Design was probably the first in Europe to focus only on helmet designs and make it into a business. NJ Design priority number one, is to offer the highest quality, best service, fastest respond time and quickest delivery when creating new assignments.
