Auritech open COVID-secure studio for custom fittings
Custom hearing protection company Auritech has opened their first studio to offer custom ear protectors
AURITECH has opened a new studio in Guildford which can offer custom-fit and filtered earplugs in a COVID-19 secure way.
Originally planned to open in March, the company shelved the opening until now and is ready to receive customers immediately. The team will be following Covid-19 protocols and using the appropriate PPE equipment while dealing with customers. Staff will be using face shields, and mandatory face coverings for clients are required for the duration of the fitting.
The filtered earplugs feature a patented ceramic filter to reduce harmful high-frequency sound while allowing speech and vital ambient sounds to be clearly heard. Custom fitted items can offer the user an enhanced level of protection over single-use products, as well as increased comfort and longevity.
Marielle Duggan, director at Auritech said: “We’ve been looking at opening a studio for quite some time now, to allow us to offer our custom-fit product away from shows, but understandably this was not possible due to the lockdown restrictions in place. We opened at the weekend, putting stringent hygiene measures in place, and ensuring that our staff and customers are wearing appropriate PPE, in the same way they would in an audiologist clinic or in a barber’s shop.
Fitting for Auritech’s custom-fit earplugs is by appointment only, and can be arranged via email at info@auritech.co.uk. Custom-fit earplugs cost £119 for a pair. They are available in a wide range of colours and come with a dedicated carry case and a free cord and clip if required.
In addition to the custom-fit earplugs, Auritech’s Universal Fit range is available over the counter. Universal Fit Auritech Biker plugs are available on the company’s website – www.auritech.co.uk and from retailers throughout the UK. They utilise the same patented ceramic filter as the Custom Fit plugs, in a tri-sectional reusable hypoallergenic plug designed to offer high levels of comfort and sound attenuation in ears of all shapes and sizes.
