Listening to music close to the speakers, playing in the pool, or concentrating on drawing. Our young children and toddlers play and learn every day. Just as well. Unfortunately, one in eight children suffers permanent damage to their hearing, because children’s ears are extra sensitive to noise. That is why Alpine developed handy Pluggies Kids: earplugs especially for kids between three and twelve years of age. These hearing protectors muffle excessively loud ambient noise and prevent water getting into the ears. Wearing Pluggies Kids also enables children to concentrate better at school. An all in one earplug for kids!
Revolutionary earplug model
Twenty years of experience have allowed Alpine to develop a revolutionary new earplug model with a noise filter, that filters out damaging sounds. The extremely well thought-out and extensively tested shape of the earplugs, provides a natural flat absorption and a perfect fit.
Multifunctional earplugs for children
You can use Pluggies Kids in a wide range of situations and applications:
To protect against excessive ambient noise
For example, to protect against excessively loud music at a festival, in the cinema, and in all other situations where kids or toddlers are troubled by excessive noise.
To prevent water getting into the ears
Children often experience earache and ear infection. Pluggies Kids earplugs prevent water getting into the ears during swimming, showering, water sports and bathing.
To assist with concentration problems
A great many children experience difficulties concentrating at school, while doing homework, or while reading. Children with ADHD, ADD, or a form of autism, can also benefit from earplugs. Research has shown that wearing Pluggies Kids improves concentration.
To prevent earache while flying
Many kids have earaches during the takeoff and landing of an airplane. Pluggies Kids earplugs improve pressure regulation in the ears, thus preventing earache. In addition, you can sleep peacefully when you wear earplugs while flying.
SNR 26
An SNR of 26 means that the hearing protection is estimated to reduce noise levels by an average of 26 decibels across various frequencies.
'SNR' in hearing protection stands for 'Single Number Rating,' which is a single value used to indicate the average level of noise reduction a hearing protection device provides across different frequencies, essentially telling you how much sound attenuation the earplugs or earmuffs will offer when worn correctly; the higher the SNR value, the greater the noise reduction level is considered to be.
SNR is primarily used as a rating system in Europe, while North America often uses 'NRR' (Noise Reduction Rating) and Australia/New Zealand use 'SLC80'; which both differ slightly in calculation.
