They are custom-made from impressions of your ears to ensure a secure fit and long-lasting protection. The process is quick and carried out by a qualified audiologist, with moulds typically ready within one to two weeks. Ear swim plugs are suitable for both adults and children, especially those with grommets or a history of ear infections.
Your appointment guide
Your swim mould appointment in three steps
Step 1 - Consultation and ear check
Your appointment begins with a brief consultation, where the audiologist will review your ear health and check that your ears are clear and suitable for impressions.
Step 2 - Ear impressions
A soft silicone material is used to take a precise impression of each ear. This process is quick, safe and ensures a secure, comfortable fit for your custom swim moulds.
Step 3 - Collection and fitting advice
Your swim moulds will be ready within one to two weeks. When you return to collect them, the audiologist will check the fit, demonstrate how to use them correctly and provide advice on care and storage.
