3. What is the difference between Disposable and Reusable earplugs?

Disposable earplugs and reusable ones are not very different in the level of hearing protection. The major difference however, is in how they stand up to wear and tear. A disposable (single use) PU earplug will degrade after first use. PU is not environmental friendly and end up in landfill. Unlike disposables, most reusable ear plugs are made of TPE material. It’s environment friendly product. Other apparent benefits of using a reusable earplug are stated below. It does not require rolling for insertion so it is a good pick incase of soiled hands. Moreover, it doesn’t require the user to wait to let foam recover unlike a disposable one. Plus, the user will be able to easily get multiple wears out of it since reusable earplugs are designed with added durability in mind. They degrade slower than disposable earplugs since they’re typically made with a more resilient design and material to suit washing and hygienic repeat wears.
