Small, consistent actions + time = Massive change

One small action you can make is to move your workplace from plastic to plant-based earplugs.

This isn’t some marketing gimmick — these will be the best earplugs you’ve ever tried!

This is a marriage between incredible hearing protection and environmental responsibility.

You can buy Final Fit Safety earplugs online or speak to a safety specialist to place a bulk order.

The backstory of Final Fit Safety

This story begins with Howard Leight. It's a familiar name and well-known brand of hearing protection devices.* What you may not have known was that there's a man behind the brand. Mr. Howard Leight has been developing in-ear hearing protection for over 30 years.

Some of his accomplishments:
  • Created the world's most popular disposable earplug.
  • Invented the first banded hearing protector.
  • Designed the first earplug dispenser.

His new mission is to eliminate plastic earplugs.
