The Portwest detectable earplug is a reliable form of hearing protection for professionals working in noise-sensitive environments. These earplugs are specifically designed for employees in the food industry and pharmaceutical sector, where hygiene and safety are crucial. Thanks to the smart design with a conspicuous cord, you are unlikely to lose the earplugs during your daily activities. This ensures effective protection against harmful noise in the workplace.
For which specific work environments is this detectable earplug most suitable?
This hearing protection is excellently suited for the food industry and cleanrooms where strict hygienic requirements apply. Because the earplugs are metal-detectable, they can be immediately detected by metal detectors in the production line in the event of accidental loss. This prevents product contamination and costly production halts.
In addition, the attached cord ensures that the plugs can hang comfortably around the neck when not in use, which significantly reduces the chance of loss on the work floor.
What do the EN 352-2 and ANSI S3.19 standards mean for this hearing protection?
The EN 352-2 standard indicates that these reusable earplugs meet European safety requirements for hearing protectors, with an attenuation value of SNR 32dB. This means that ambient noise is reduced by an average of 32 decibels.
The American ANSI S3.19 standard confirms effective noise attenuation under strict test conditions with an NRR of 24dB. These certifications guarantee that your hearing is optimally protected against hearing damage caused by prolonged or loud industrial noise.
The soft TPR material with triple-flange design ensures a comfortable fit. The reusable earplugs are hygienically packaged per pair in a handy dispenser.
