Comfortable, Custom, Affordable Hearing Protection They’ll Really Wear

Why Choose Custom Hearing Protection?

There’s more to hearing protection than just reducing hazardous noise. While this is a goal of all hearing protection, custom products can offer you and your team more than generic PPE options. 

While it’s true that off-the-shelf products like earplugs or earmuffs do reduce the volume of sound, they don’t do it as effectively, as comfortably or with as much variety as custom solutions, like dB Blockers by Protect Ear. 

When it comes to long-term workers' health and happiness, the difference is in the details that custom hearing protection offers: comfort, customization and affordability.

dB Blockers Offer Comfort, Customization and Affordability

First, dB Blockers offer a custom-fit hearing solution to workers across any industry, including manufacturing, construction and transportation. The custom fit ensures maximum comfort and protection during long shifts. 

Optional variations in the earmold, like filters or vents, allow dB Blockers to work for a larger number of real-world situations and positions. For example, roles requiring phone use, attention to alarms or warning sounds would benefit from a Classic Vented dB Blocker, which gives the wearer the same level of situational awareness, even in noisy environments. 

Unlike disposable earplugs, which are not custom-fit and are only effective when worn properly, dB Blockers provide a personalized fit that reduces noise exposure without sacrificing communication. This not only boosts productivity but also makes workers safer by allowing clear conversations in loud environments.

Additionally, the durability and reusability of dB Blockers make them a cost-effective solution over single-use products like foam earplugs. Custom earmolds reduce waste and lower long-term hearing protection expenses. In fact, dB Blockers pay for themselves in just 6 months, on average. Compared to foam earplugs (assuming 4 pairs used per day at a cost of $0.21 per pair), dB Blockers can save an estimated $900 per person, per year.

These calculations are in addition to the potential financial benefits from a reduction in workers' compensation claims, equipment damage, factory cleanup and costs for storing and shipping thousands of foam earplugs.

With savings like that, it's no wonder that more industrial facilities are making the switch to dB Blockers for their hearing conservation programs that focus on both safety and efficiency. 

So, what do you say? Are you ready to make the switch to custom hearing protection and protect your team and your company with a custom product they will really wear? If so, we’ve got you covered.
