IT’S TIME TO CHANGE THOSE EAR PLUGS
BioSoft® Sustainable Bio-Based Ear Plugs Are Changing the Future of Hearing Protection
Workers across America wear hearing protection every day to protect themselves from unsafe workplace noises generated from power tools, equipment, traffic and more. Single-use foam ear plugs are the most popular choice for workplace hearing safety because they are versatile and economical but unfortunately conventional polyurethane (PU), or PVC foam ear plugs aren’t recyclable nor do these decompose.
Each day, workers across the world dispose 50 million disposable hearing protectors in landfills where it takes centuries to breakdown. This means the very first earplugs ever produced (including those worn by you) are still intact in landfill.
If you feel guilty about the earplugs you have trashed, and continually trash, you are not alone. To tackle the growing volume of plastic and landfill waste, eco-conscious P.P.E. suppliers such as PIP® (Protective Industrial Products) are investing heavily in Research & Development (R&D) for sustainable safety products with limited environmental impact.
Understanding the importance of reducing waste to lower costs and minimize environmental impact, PIP® created a sustainable line of single-use ear plugs. Better for the planet, their new ECOSeries™ BioSoft® biodegradable ear plugs are the very first ear plugs constructed from bio-based foam technologies!
Complementing their growing ECOSeries™ technology portfolio of sustainable P.P.E, customers can now convert to a sustainable alternative to traditional single-use polyurethane or PVC foam single-use ear plugs and divert landfill, pollution, and micro-plastic without sacrificing comfort or performance.

The BioSelect® ear plug foam material provides operators with the same fit and performance as conventional counterparts but with a lower carbon footprint. This innovative technology not only reduces emissions during manufacturing, but it is made with 82% bio-based materials that decompose 76% in 180 days making BioSoft® more environmentally friendly at end of use.
Sustainable ECOSeries™ BioSoft™ ear plugs are the first TAA compliant ear plugs constructed from bio-based technologies made in North America. The soft, smooth, low pressure BioSoft™ biodegradable ear plug foam material provides wearers with the same fit, comfort and performance as conventional polyurethane or PVC ear plug materials but boasts a lower carbon footprint –up to 5.6x less CO2 Carbon Emissions than traditional polyurethane foam ear plugs.
Seek better alternatives and create a successful hearing conservation program with a selection of high performing sustainable single-use ear plugs. BioSoft™ technology is available in Mega Bullet™ and Pinchfit™ style single-use ear plugs. Both brands are available in a metal detectable style.
The correct use of ear plugs is critical to ensure optimal hearing protection.
