Protect Your Hearing with Top-Quality Hearing Protection Products
At RSEA Safety, we offer a wide range of hearing protection solutions designed to meet the needs of various industry environments. Whether you work in landscaping, construction, or industrial settings, our hearing PPE provides essential benefits like noise reduction, elevated comfort, and continuous wear for low to high noise levels. Protecting your hearing is crucial, and with our selection of hearing protection products, you'll find an appropriate solution for a range of jobs, especially in loud environments.
Noise-induced hearing loss is a serious and permanent risk faced by workers exposed to high noise levels over extended periods. To minimise this risk, effective hearing protection is essential. Our hearing protectors include earmuffs, foam earplugs, earplug dispensers, uncorded earplugs, banded options, headbands, and neckbands. These products are sourced from established brands, including Sperian, Blue Rapta, Moldex, 3M™ EAR™, 3M™ Peltor™, Scott Safety, UniSafe, and Howard Leight. Each of these products is designed to meet industry standards for noise reduction, providing effective protection.
The proper fit of hearing protection is critical, whether you are using in-ear options like earplugs or over-ear options like earmuffs. For in-ear protection, ensuring that the earplug fits correctly within the ear canal is crucial to block harmful noise effectively. Similarly, earmuffs need to form a tight seal around the ears to provide adequate protection. Without a proper fit, the effectiveness of noise reduction can be significantly compromised, increasing the risk of noise-induced hearing loss.
Each hearing protection product in our collection comes with a clearly labelled noise reduction rating (NRR). The NRR helps you understand the level of noise protection each product provides, allowing you to select the appropriate protection for the noise exposure in your work environment. By choosing the right product with the correct NRR and ensuring a proper fit, you can help reduce your risk of hearing damage and support long-term hearing health.
What Type of Hearing Protection Do You Need?
Choosing the right hearing protection is essential for ensuring safety and compliance with Australian Standards. Noise-induced hearing loss cannot be reversed, so selecting the correct hearing protectors is critical to prevent damage. Here’s a guide to help you understand the different types of hearing protection we offer and how they align with industry standards.
Guide to AUS/NZ Hearing Protection Standards
Noise-induced hearing loss is permanent and requires proactive prevention. The harmful effects of loud noise can build up over time, even if hearing protection is removed for just a few minutes each day. Ensuring consistent wear time is essential, which highlights the importance of choosing appropriate hearing protectors that comply with Australian Standards.
