VeriPRO makes it easy to get an accurate, real-world picture of your employees’ hearing protection. Find out whether your employees are receiving optimal protection, require additional training on how to fit their earplugs, or need to try a different model.

• Measures the Personal Attenuation Rating (PAR) for each employee

• Works with any earplug, corded or uncorded, from any manufacturer

• Fulfills regulatory requirements to ensure proper initial fitting of hearing protection

• Documents training and proper fit for new or existing employees

• Provides an ideal opportunity for one-on-one education

By verifying earplug effectiveness and providing an ideal opportunity for education, VeriPRO becomes an integral part of a successful Hearing Conservation Program.

QuietDose is the first noise level monitoring system that uses in-ear dosimetry to measure every sound that reaches the user’s eardrum. Dramatically more precise than existing area or personal sampling devices currently in use, QuietDose provides previously unattainable and highly precise data points that allow both workers and management to make the smartest, best-informed hearing protection decisions. QuietDose data equips safety managers to:

• Determine whether workers are using their earplugs or earmuffs correctly

• Track and address the potential of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in real time

• Potentially eliminate dual protection

• Provide workers with more appropriate hearing protectors

• Streamline worker deployment by matching shift hours with proper protection more accurately

Sound Management Earmuffs

As safety on the range and in the field is most important, Impact Sport keeps wearers both protected from hazardous noise and connected to their environment. Impact Sport employs built-in directional microphones that amplify range commands and other ambient sounds to a safe 82 dB. This provides more natural listening and enhanced communication. For protection, Impact Sport actively listens and automatically shuts off amplification when ambient sound reaches 82 dB, effectively blocking out hazardous noise.


Clarity Series earmuffs improve worker safety by blocking noise, while voice and signal frequencies can be heard more naturally. Clarity earmuffs provide uniform attenuation that allows speech frequencies to be heard with less distortion – combating worker isolation and overprotection on the job. Plus, Clarity’s robust non-deforming dielectric design withstands use and abuse while protecting workers in electrical environments.
