Hearing protection – additional information
Noise-induced hearing loss has long been recognised as one of the most common occupational hazards. The tricky thing is that noise damages hearing gradually and painlessly. This is why we develop hearing protection for all situations and all noise levels, with speech and signal perception still possible.
How to find the right hearing protection?
The appropriate form of hearing protection varies according to the wearer’s ear and the area of application. Find out more how to find the right earplugs for your application here.

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the sudden or gradual loss of hearing due to exposure to loud sounds. Find out more about it's wider implications: HERE
How to fit earplugs correctly?
The proper use of ear plugs requires that they be securely fit in the ear canal. If the ear plugs are not properly seated, they may provide almost no protection. To get the best protection from your foam earplugs, remember to roll, pull, and hold when putting them in. Learn how to fit your earplugs with our helpful video and flyer here.
