Alpine Plug & Go Ear Plugs
Now Available from the UK Distributor
Nobody likes the unpleasant all- round noises, which at the same time are very harmful and can permanently damage your hearing. As a specialist in the field of hearing protection, we have developed an extra-soft, low pressure foam earplug solution that provides a very comfortable fit.
The self-adjusting, curved and tapered Plug & Go earplugs expand to fit all ear canals.
Hearing protection should give the user a high level of comfort, offer an excellent noise reduction and must be easy to insert. The Alpine Plug & Go Earplugs are produced from a very soft material, which makes them a very good choice for use during sleeping, studying, during a concert or when your attending motorsport events, riding a motorcycle, or any other noisy environment.
Each blister pack offers 5 sets of earplugs. An extra feature is the special designed and handy plastic travel box, to keep your earplugs clean and dirt free. The travel box can be used as a key chain, so that you will always carry your earplugs with you and never be without hearing protection again.
They are inexpensive to buy, especially considering the alternative of permanent hearing loss!
