Disposable Foam Ear Plugs

PAPER OR PLASTIC?
HOWARD LEIGHT INTRODUCES PAPER BAG PACKAGING

San Diego (September 9, 1998) -- Now there is a choice: paper or plastic. Howard Leight introduces paper bag packaging, available with MULTIMAX and corded MAX-LITE earplugs.

Plastic packaging offers convenience with a lower cost, while paper bags are highly visible and won't melt to hot machinery. Both are recyclable. Plastic is available in all products, paper only in MULTIMAX and MAX-LITE.

So, whether you prefer paper or plastic, now you have the choice.


 

MULTIMAX

NRR 31

Howard Leight has changed the shape of hearing protection. Again.

Howard Leight Industries, innovative leader of the hearing protection industry, introduces the new MultiMax, multi-sized foam earplug. Dual-sized design for proper sizing, the MultiMax fits virtually any ear canal by simply inserting the end that provides the proper fit.

MULTIMAX 
Features: Benefits:
Dual-sized for custom fit No need to stock multiple sizes
Yellow and orange color programs Easy to see compliance with safety
Natural crown shape with slight taper canals Easier insertion for smaller ear
Smooth outer skin Reduces absorption of contaminants
NRR 31 Very high attenuation performance

Purchasing and stocking are now simpler since MultiMax eliminates the need to buy several products for different sized ear canals. One plug does it all. The MultiMax, made with Howard Leight's famous soft foam is designed with dual-ends. The yellow end is for smaller ear canals, the coral end for medium and large size ear canals. MultiMax fits them all.

With the high performance NRR 31, MultiMax provides more than adequate hearing protection for most noisy work environments.

SELECTIVITY: Dual usage with multi-sized ear plug. One plug can be used for different size ear canals. Purchasers can buy one ear plug for a variety of workers, thus no need to stock multiple sizes.

HIGH VISIBILITY: High visibility yellow for smaller ear canals, and coral for larger ear canals. Easy to identify usage and size selection. Compliance with hearing conservation programs can be seen at a glance'.
ATTENUATION CHARACTERISTICS: Cell structure of foam material boots high attenuation performance. The cellular structure more effectively breaks up damaging sound waves. The design of the MultiMax provides a high NRR and more worker confidence in providing an effective sound barrier for noise hazards environments.
UTILITY OPERATION: Optimim length for use in either size. Allows full insertion without fear of difficult removal. Too long to lose' in ear canal, and will not stick out' of ears with smaller canals.
QUALITY: Product consistency second to none. Uses time-proven Howard Leight formula for effective high volume consistency. Consistency in quality and reliability.
COMFORT: Natural crown shape on both ends of the ear plug, with a slight taper at the smaller end. Easy and comfortable insertion, and security in obtaining a proper fit. Greater confidence in attaining a proper fit, insuring optimum protection.
PERFORMANCE: NRR 31. Very high attenuation rating. Hearing protection is not compromised by ill fitting ear plug.
