Fitting protection

The latest addition to the uvex collection is the xact-fit hearing protection. It makes ear plugs an individual fit - similar to that of left and right handed gloves.

The ergonomically designed stems and the oval foam pods mimic the shape and contours of the ear canal making the fitting of the uvex xact-fit hygienic, convenient and easy.

The plugs are suitable for noise environments below 100 decibels or for those people exposed to intermittent noise. It is corded for increased security and pods are replaceable.

The oval uvex hi-com is moulded from soft PU foam - the same shape as the ear canal - making it extremely comfortable.

Hi-com reduces background noise but retains excellent speech recognition.

Both products are manufactured by SwedSafe, a completely sustainable plant in Sweden now owned by uvex.

'These two products provide wearers with products that are easy to fit and comfortable to wear,' comments Nigel Day, product manager of uvex UK, 'uvex puts the wearers first.'
