I’ve been working in the Coal Mining & Coal Preparation Plant work environment for the last 31 + years, during this time I have used all the available hearing protection options.
For me the moulded ear plugs that are made to an individuals ear are second to none for protection & comfort. We constantly see 125+ dB on a daily basis & I have very minimal if any hearing lose, which is pretty good for a 57 year old in my industry.
Our company replaces the ear plugs on a need too basis or every 2 years. I take my old ear plugs home so I can use them, whether that is in the yard doing mowing or whipper snipping & in the garage working on car projects. The photo shows the set of ear plugs that I currently use at home.
