Rank: Guest		Posted By Adam Jackson I'm looking for a company which supplies those in-ear moulded plugs which are made specifically for each individual. (The ones where they take a cast of the ear and manufacture a plug specifically for that individual). I'm having trouble finding someone in the UK who does them - France, no problem, but not the UK sadly! Has anyone used these and if so, any pointers to a company or companies which can help?

Rank: Guest		Posted By Carmel I have used the Emtec personel moulded ear defenders and the service was good. They did an on site service. I have not got the address on me but if you give me you email address I will send you details.

Rank: Guest		Posted By Jon Bradburn Try ARCO - we have used them for years with excellent support. They even arranged for an onsite sound level test - then of course which PPE is most appropriate. This does not however preclude your responsibility for reducing exposure by other means. The chap did however offer some 'suggestions' on this score too. Jon

Rank: Guest		Posted By Adam Jackson Thanks for the tip and rest assured we've been through the 'other means' route. Do Arco do the made-to-measure ones, I thought they just did the boxed ear plug styles?? I'm off to their website now for a gander...

Rank: Guest		Posted By rjhills I concur with your first respondent. EMTEC are the answer to your query. I dealt with them for a national newspaper and they came to site and did each employee individually. When I dealt with them,(which is some time ago), their address was: Emtec Laboratories, 18/19, Hardwicke Stables, Hadnall,Nr. Shrewsbury,Shropshire. SY4 4AS. I hope this helps.
