About Emtec Laboratories –
Creators of NoiseBreaker Ear Plugs

Emtec Laboratories designs and manufactures NoiseBreaker custom moulded ear plugs, providing reliable, comfortable hearing protection for industrial and recreational environments.

Emtec Laboratories was founded in 1970 by Alec Sneyd (F.S.H.A.A) with the name “Emtec” representing “Ear Mould Technology”.

Initially, Emtec manufactured ear moulds for profoundly deaf children. They were the preferred first choice of many, due to their extremely comfortable fit. It was on this basis of comfort that the NoiseBreakers® evolved.

In 1990, Emtec Laboratories relocated to Shropshire and the business has subsequently been developed by Maurice Davison and his daughter Fiona Edwards. It remains in the family, under the directorship of Fiona.

For the past 40+ years, Emtec has been the market leader in custom made hearing protection, responsible not only for the manufacturing, but also direct marketing, aided by a network of agents, nationally and internationally.

The manufacturing of the NoiseBreaker is a very precise process due to the customised nature of the hearing protection. In view of this, our technicians are highly skilled, with a wealth of experience in their field of ear mould technology. At Emtec, we take great pride in the quality of the NoiseBreaker, hence our customer service is of paramount importance to us.

Many leading companies in the UK have specified Emtec as their brand of choice for moulded hearing protection.

Our custom-moulded ear plugs are used across a range of sectors including the oil and petrochemical industry, military environments, emergency services, engineering and food and drink manufacturing.
