The choice of filter is dependent on the type of sound you are normally exposed to.
The red filter is the heaviest one and has an attenuation of up to 33 dB. We recommend this filter for e.g. people working in heavy industry or construction, but it is also an ideal filter to protect the ears against fireworks. .
The orange filter is a powerful filter and has an attenuation of up to 30 dB. We recommend using this filter against e.g. wind noise when driving a motorcycle, and noise produced by working with power tools around the house and in the garden. .
The green filter is a medium filter and has an attenuation of up to 24 dB. This filter is used for e.g. going out (disco/dancing/concerts), for people working in catering, and for teachers in gyms, swimming pools and day-care centres.
