EARPLUGS
Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most common causes of hearing loss, and since permanently hearing hair cells can no longer regenerate, find out how you can protect this precious sense.
The importance of hearing protection
The indisputable fact is that today from an early age we are all exposed to countless sources of noise, many of which we are not even aware of because they simply cannot be avoided.
At the earliest age we spend much of our time in noisy environments such as playrooms, playgrounds and classrooms, and in high school and college we replace them with concerts and sporting events.
Entering adulthood, even if we do not choose a profession that will expose us to loud environments, every day we are continuously surrounded by noise that can cause hearing damage.
When exposing ourselves to noise (above 85 dB) for longer period, we risk health consequences, but sometimes only one loud event in the area of about 140 dB, such as a gunshot or explosion, is sufficient for permanent hearing damage.
Effective solutions
As we are increasingly exposed to different sources of noise today, at Bontech we have designed and produced proven effective solutions in the form of earplugs that help different profiles of people and are made for specific situations.
Noise at work
Bontech Professional (noise protection earplugs with nonlinear attenuation)
Bontech Professional earplugs with nonlinear attenuation are ideal to use in all branches of industry and situations where environmental noise creates discomfort and makes it difficult to work. Nonlinear attenuation guarantees constant speech intelligibility while fully protecting hearing.
Earplugs are made in 3D technology based on individual ear prints, and we distinguish silicone (soft) and acrylic (hard) earplugs. Bontech Professional earplugs are special because they come with four types of filters adapted to specific types and intensities of noise in the workplace and protect against noise throughout working hours. For professionals whose work requires long-term noise protection, we definitely recommend silicone earplugs, as they will still be comfortable after hours of use.
Water in the ear canal
Water in the ear canal often causes ear infections, and when diving at greater depths, damage may occur due to high pressure.
Bontech water protection earplugs are anatomically ideally suited to any user because they are custom made. They will completely close the auricle.
Bontech Aqua (water protection earplugs)
Inflammation of the middle ear is the most common ear infection, which, if left untreated in time, can lead to permanent hearing damage and other health problems. It is often caused by water in the ear canal, which is why it is essential to protect ears from water, especially in people prone to inflammation.Bontech aqua earplugs reduce the risk of ear inflammation during bathing, showering or swimming. They are made of hypoallergenic materials of high and long durability and are easy to take care of.
Bontech aqua medical (water protection earplugs in children with built-in tubes)
In children with built-in tubes, any water leakage in the ears must be completely prevented, even when showering. Earplugs are made of soft, hypoallergenic silicone materials that guarantee comfort. In children under the age of 18, due to the growth and change of ear anatomy, and in order to ensure continuous optimal protection, it is recommended to make new earplugs every year.
Bontech diving (diving earplugs)
If you have experienced pain, discomfort or irritation in the ear during diving you know how much it can spoil the experience and a good dive. Bontech diving earplugs leak a small amount of water into the ear, thereby reducing the possibility of dizziness caused by the penetration of water of different temperature into the ears. The retention of a small amount of water does not allow further circulation of water into the ear canal, thus not allowing dirt to enter and reducing the risk of infections of the outer and middle ear. The maximum depth of use is not limited, that is, the functionality of the earplugs is independent of the depth of the dive.
Sleep and music
When sleeping or listening to your favorite music, it is important to reduce loudness, and still let in the sounds that matter to us. That is why we have created custom made earplugs with which you will sleep peacefully and enjoy your favorite music without fear of hearing damage.
Bontech sweet dreams (earplugs for sleeping)
Whether you have to sleep in a noisy environment (airport, bus, hostel…) or have easily disrupted sleep, Bontech sweet dreams earplugs are a good solution for undisturbed and solid sleep. Earplugs for sleeping eliminate loud, distracting sounds (such as snoring), but certain other sounds can still be heard, such as alarm bells. Although these earplugs provide excellent attenuation, it is essential to bear in mind that completely eliminating all sounds from the environment is impossible.
Bontech music (noise protection earplugs with linear damping)
Bontech music earplugs tend to protect hearing from loud music, and since they do not change the nature of sound, they are specially created for musicians, DJs and all those whose nature of work or favorite entertainment is related to loud music.
There are two groups of people who need earplugs for music. The first group includes musicians, studio engineers, nightclub employees and other professionals within the music industry who are exposed to the sound level from 90 to 120 dB. The second group consists of people from outside the music industry who love to listen to loud music or visit sports events and motorbike and plane drivers.
Bontech music earplugs come with three types of filters that lower the sound linearly to a level that suits the user. The soft silicone materials from which they are made provide comfort even after prolonged using. They can also be used when driving in open cars or on motorbikes, with the wind making noise.
Hunting
Bontech shooter and combat earplugs represent the pinnacle of active hearing protection technology against sudden loud noises. Except hunters, they can be used by police officers, military workers, security guards and other people who want to protect their hearing from the loud sounds of gunshots.
Bontech shooter and combat earplugs (earplugs for hunters)
These custom-made earplugs were created to protect the hearing of hunting enthusiasts from sudden loud sounds like firearm shooting, but they also do not eliminate surrounding sounds such as rustling leaves or animal roars.
Bontech Combat earplugs can be used by anyone who wants to protect their hearing from loud sudden noises, such as shooting firearms. They represent an effective solution, and the user can turn on protection when needed and turn off when they want to, e.g. in hunting when they want to hear well the possible movement of wildlife in the environment.
Bontech Shooter earplugs are a good solution for active hearing protection. They provide maximum comfort because the protection against loud sounds is always turned on while allowing all sounds from the environment to be detected. Active amplification on 3 levels allows for better detection of silent sounds from a distance such as rustling of leaves, etc.
