Petzl says:
Ultra-lightweight climbing and mountaineering helmet.
Remarkably lightweight for ambitious climbers and mountaineers. The SIROCCO helmet was designed to give you an exceptional weight-to-protection ratio (170 g). Lower in the back, the design provides greater coverage and offers enhanced protection over the entire head. Its low profile and superior ventilation give you all-day comfort.
