Ear plugs feature in ‘Tomorrows Health & Safety’

Our ear plugs are featured in February’s Health & Safety Magazine; ‘No Need to Shout’ on page 4. As we know NIHL (Noise Induced Hearing Loss) is irreversible, this article reflects on why protecting your hearing is essential.

Mick Whitaker our Managing Director gives an insightful overview on NIHL, our ProtectHear® product and the training for using hearing protection. It is an ever-growing concern to protect our hearing, so no permanent damage is caused.

Our ear plugs offer effective protection but do not overprotect, users can wear them all day, whilst having the ability to hear conversation and hear warnings. This works well especially in working areas where the noise varies by significant levels. The soft silicone design of our product allows users to wear all day comfortably.

Our ‘Try Before you Buy’ is a great way for businesses to see the benefits in comparison to disposables and ear defenders, with 1-10 people allowed on a trial for an 8 week period. Our toolbox talks support the trial process and we work with you to make the difference.

We can also provide communication accessories to suit your needs; these connect to our ear plugs. Our SpeakHear® accessories have a 12 month warranty, we can also offer ATEX approved accessories.

An ‘Event’Full Year for ProtectHear®!

So 2016 is almost at an end and what a year it has been, ProtectHear® have exhibited at five shows and done lots more besides. Show-wise we met hundreds of people at three of the SHE Shows in Blackpool, Milton Keynes and Newcastle and two of The Health and Safety Events. Including a new show to the list ‘Health and Safety North’ at the Bolton Arena.

We have been going to the SHE shows now for seven years and The Health and Safety Events for two. The show at Birmingham was our second year and Bolton our first. Western Business Exhibitions and Washington Dowling do a great job organising the events and we meet lots of people in Health and Safety who are interested in custom moulded hearing protection.

It has been a busy year for us also as we finished our rebranding project, transitioning our exhibition presence from At Source QX Ltd to our product brand name ProtectHear®.

The rebranding certainly caught everyone’s attention this year with the new graphic design and display monitor with continuous rolling slides, and we loved launching our new Cost Saving Calculator stand so that clients can realise their projected savings in an instant when switch from disposable earplugs to custom moulded. Retro-wise it is always a big attraction seeing our obelisk full of disposables, an eye catching and great way to illustrate how many disposables on average people use per annum.

Our moulded earplugs are unique and events like these are perfect ways of getting the product out there, as some people still haven’t heard about custom moulded. We boast a wide portfolio of customers such as Network Rail, Weetabix and Kraft.

Our ’Try Before You Buy’ trial is a popular option with companies, helping them decide on the suitability of our hearing protection without committing fully. Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) is on the rise and we are trying to help to prevent claims and maintain hearing health, with our product lasting five years and offering full protection. We also educate the workforce as to why it is so important to protect your hearing, as the effects of NIHL are irreversible.

ProtectHear® exhibited its 4th Event of the year, The Health and Safety North Show, held at the Bolton Arena. This was the second event of the year organised by Western Business Exhibitions, our first show outside of the NEC and it certainly exceeded expectations.

The event was over a 2 day period with a full programme, conferences, seminars and guest speakers throughout the day. The show had over 2500 visitors with employees from industrial sectors visiting.

This was yet again a great opportunity for ProtectHear® to showcase our many products and services. To promote custom moulded earplugs and how we are here to help prevent NIHL (Noise Induced Hearing Loss). Hearing is very important especially when you consider that hearing loss is irreversible.

Our next show with Western Business Exhibitions will be the Health and Safety NEC 2017 in March. Come visit us for more information on our company.
