FAQ

1. What Is the Best Hearing Protection for Mining Workers?

Mining workers are exposed to some of the highest industrial noise levels from drilling, blasting, crushing equipment and heavy mining machinery. Choosing the right hearing protection depends on the noise level, working conditions and compatibility with safety helmets and other PPE.

For most mining applications, "helmet-mounted earmuffs" provide reliable protection, a secure fit and excellent compatibility with safety helmets. In extremely noisy environments, foam earplugs can also be used together with earmuffs for enhanced protection.

"Safeyear offers ANSI-tested helmet-mounted earmuffs, industrial earmuffs and disposable foam earplugs for mining operations."
