Specialty Earmolds
Specialty Earmolds by EDI
We design quality custom earmolds that acoustically perform according to the intended purpose, fit
comfortably, have good retention and are as aesthetically pleasing as possible. In order to
manufacturer a properly functioning earmold for your client (for hearing protection, communication,
hearing loss, etc.), an accurate impression of the ear must be obtained. Care must also be taken to
select a model and/or style that is appropriate to the client’s needs.
Quality finished products reflect precision craftsmanship—a hallmark of EDI custom earmolds. Please
refer to our publications for detailed information on taking earmold impressions, choosing styles and
colors, and other options.
Custom Hearing Protection Devices
Incorporating hearing conservation fittings and activities into your hearing health care practice will help
you grow your business and enhance your image as a professional in your community. Your clients will
discover that custom hearing protection devices (CHPDs) are comfortable, accurate, cost-effective and
contribute to a healthful lifestyle. (Before fitting the CHPDs, take a baseline sound field audiogram with
open ear so you can do a before and after comparison of the client’s attenuation characteristics. This
will give you the client’s real-world attenuation.)
Communication Devices
Providing hearing health care services to people in communication industries is another way to grow
your business and enhance your image. The need for communication earmolds is increasing as new
electronic products continue to appear on the market. These earmolds maintain sound quality, reduce
background noise and can be acoustically-tuned to individuals with or without hearing loss. The
“plumbing” on them can be as simple as a receiver ring or as elaborate as binaural tubing with a Y-
connector. Anyone who plugs earphones into any listening device is a candidate for a custom
communications earmold.
