Superior communication with optimal protection
uvex hi-com
superior communication
Scientifically advanced
Together with ADVANCED HEARING BY SCIENCE, uvex
has developed a programme which focuses on constantly
improving existing hearing protection technology. uvex has
developed a completely new ear plug that will change the
way people work. The uvex hi-com is the result of years of
research and development, and clearly shows the UVEX
SAFETY GROUP’s desire and ability to come up with new
innovations.
Overprotection = difficulties in communication
It’s important to choose the right hearing protector for the right noise situation. Choosing a hearing protector with a higher SLC80
than required will mean that hearing conversations, warning signals and any other acoustic communications will be more difficult.
hi-com features and benefits:
•Reduction of inner ear sounds, which normally increase
when ear plugs are worn
•Excellent voice perception for improved communication
• Low sound absorption
• No risk of overprotection
• Extremely comfortable
•Compact roll-up for simple insertion, even in smaller
ear canals
Applications:
•Airlines/cabin crews
• Entertainment industry
• Emergency services
• Security
• Healthcare
• Call centres
• Authorities
• Administrative bodies

The surface area of the
uvex hi-com is in­cre­ased
with indentations and
of­fers an acoustically
softer and therefore a more
absorbent sur­face facing
the ear drum. The ear­plug

from noise and improves
the ability to communicate.
