Kimberly-Clark Professional introduces metal detectable ear plugs for food processing and pharmaceutical industries

November 19, 2010

Kimberly-Clark Professional has added two new products to its Jackson Safety brand hearing protection line: the H10 and H20 metal detectable disposable and reusable earplugs for use in the food and pharmaceutical processing industries.

Earplugs with embedded metal are used by these industries to ensure – via scanning – that earplugs or other forms of PPE for workers can be easily detected during food and pharmaceutical processing.

Like the other Jackson Safety brand hearing protection products, the new H10 and H20 metal detectable earplugs are designed to deliver both performance and comfort while improving compliance. The new earplugs are:
  • A distinctive blue color for effective compliance monitoring and increased visibility in food and pharmaceutical processing environments.
  • Individually packaged for hygienic purposes.
  • Available in universal sizes.
  • Disposable and reusable, and available with a cord, for improved safety and convenience.
As with other Kimberly-Clark Professional safety products, these hearing protection products feature an alpha-numeric naming system designed to simplify and streamline the product selection process. The new hearing protection products support Kimberly-Clark Professional’s integrated head-to-toe approach to personal protective equipment design and the company’s commitment to providing high-quality safety solutions that work well together.

For more information about these and other Kimberly-Clark Professional Safety products, visit www.kc-safety.com.
