Custom earplugs are used by many different people from practically any job sector, from professional musicians, to motorsport drivers, to construction workers – the list goes on. Custom earplugs aren’t just used in industry though; they can also be used for domestic purposes such as aiding sleep. All custom earplugs offer great levels of user comfort, sound quality and value for money, but can differ slightly due to their intended application.
Industry environments
Anyone working in a noisy industrial environment will know how important it is to be able to communicate clearly with co-workers, as well as carry out tasks such as talking with suppliers and customers over the phone. There is also the safety aspect of being able to hear warning alarms or vehicle reversing sirens.
Custom made earplugs can be specifically designed to meet the needs of any industry and come with a range of hearing filters, which can be matched to your work environment, so whether you are working on a construction project or in a manufacturing plant you can be sure to get the right level of protection.
It is important that earplugs are comfortable to wear, especially when you have to use them for long periods of time, and for this reason industrial earplugs are designed to be lightweight so that they are always comfortable to use. They are also very easy to maintain and keep clean.
Earplugs for musicians
High fidelity sound and comfort are important to professionals working in the music industry.
Earplugs for the music industry can be supplied with a number of filters which offer protection at levels of 9dB, 15dB and 25dB. The earplugs are tailor-made for your ears to ensure a perfect fit which is comfortable to use.
The patented flat frequency response filters protect your hearing, while maintaining the clarity of the music. The filters are also interchangeable, so you can adjust the attenuation level depending on your listening or working environment.
These earplugs are suitable for everyone in the music industry, from sound engineers at concerts or gigs, to vocalists and band members, meaning you can benefit from great hearing protection no matter what your role.
Earplugs for motorsport
Motorsport delivers lots of thrills and spills; however the drivers and riders taking part have to spend long periods of time in very high levels of sound produced by race tuned engines. This can lead to accidents caused through tiredness, as well as posing a risk of long term hearing damage.
Custom earplugs for motorsport are designed with this in mind, and help to counter the high levels of noise that is produced by powerful engines.
These earplugs feature a special low profile design, which allows you to wear a helmet without interference. Inside, they feature patented hearing filters that allows you to hear background noise, so you always know what is happening around you, but block out the high levels of noise which lead to permanent damage.
Earplugs for sleeping
As adults, we all need at least six to eight hours of uninterrupted sleep per day if we are to live a happy, healthy life.
Without enough sleep, it is almost impossible to carry out your job properly, and can lead to poor levels of concentration. Lack of quality sleep also has an effect on your leisure time and family life too.
Custom earplugs can be made to aid your sleep; they are manufactured from an extremely flexible medical grade of silicone, which is soft enough to bend and twist with your body movement during the night. They feature a low profile which allows them to be comfortable to wear while resting on a pillow.
Specialised patented filters reduce the background noise which can keep you awake, but important sounds such as your children or fire alarms are still able to be heard.
You will be able to enjoy quality sleep every night, while still remaining safe.
Shooting earplugs
Communicating with fellow shooting enthusiasts is very important not only for safety, but for social reasons.
Shooting exposes you to sharp bursts of very high levels of noise, and custom earplugs for shooting enthusiasts protect your hearing by isolating you from this.
You are still able to communicate freely with others without having to remove your earplugs, but you are also 100% protected.
