FAQ
Why is fit important for ear plugs?
Ear plugs only protect well when inserted correctly and sealed in the ear canal. Training, fit checks and comfort affect real-world protection.
When are metal-detectable ear plugs useful?
They are useful in food, pharmaceutical and process facilities where lost PPE must be easier to detect and control.
