The New egger epro®-DM Hearing Protection Series

The epro® series of custom-fit hearing protection is expanding with a significant innovation: On April 8, 2025, egger Otoplastik + Labortechnik GmbH will launch the new epro®-DM hearing protection. Thanks to a special filter, the epro®-DM sets new standards in terms of application range, flexibility, and compact design.

The “Switch” Filter: Two Attenuation Levels at the Flip of a Switch
At the heart of the new epro®-DM is the innovative “Switch” filter – a first in the industry. With a simple toggle switch, users can switch between two levels of attenuation. In the open position, the filter provides low attenuation, ideal for conversations and moderate noise exposure. When closed, it delivers full attenuation and reliable protection against high noise levels. This flexibility makes the epro®-DM a versatile companion – from industrial settings to the music industry and shooting sports.

Also Available in a Classic Filter Version
In addition to the innovative “Switch” version, the epro®-DM is also available as a classic model without a toggle switch. This version offers the same outstanding acoustic performance in a minimal form factor and is available in various fixed attenuation levels – from light to high. Users can choose between a consistently selected level of attenuation or maximum flexibility with the “Switch” mechanism.

Compact, powerful, and versatile
The new filter is significantly smaller than egger’s proven epro®-ER membrane filter, making it a perfect addition to the product line. It is the ideal solution for those who previously found the epro®-ER too large. Additionally, the epro®-DM is available in both soft and hard materials, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Thanks to its linear broadband attenuation, the filter reduces sound evenly across the entire frequency spectrum – without unnatural sound distortion. People with tinnitus or hyperacusis also benefit from this technology: the epro®-DM ensures optimal speech intelligibility while providing effective protection.

Certified Protection for Professionals and Hobbyists
With its type-examination certification, the epro®-DM Switch is particularly suitable for professional occupational safety. It offers top-level protection in noisy work environments and is also ideal for sport shooters and hunters. The practical “Switch” mechanism allows users to quickly and flexibly adapt to changing noise conditions – a crucial advantage in both work and leisure settings.

With the epro®-DM, egger completes its hearing protection portfolio. The choice between the innovative “Switch” version and the classic filter model makes it a unique solution for anyone who values maximum protection, comfort, and true-to-life sound reproduction.
