SportEAR, a pioneer in hearing aids and hearing protection for hunters, military, and industrial workers includes HZO on several products on the market today.

Draper, UT – April 11, 2017 – HZO, Inc., the total solutions leader in liquid and environmental protection technology for any size electronic component, announced today its featured partnership with SportEAR, an industry leader and pioneer of hearing augmentation and protection equipment for hunters, industrial workers, and outdoor enthusiasts.

SportEAR hearing aids serve a dual purpose of both augmenting the hearing of a user to respond to critical noise cues while simultaneously protecting that same hearing from harmful loud sounds such as muzzle blasts or industrial equipment. These versatile products are critical tools for many outdoor workers and enthusiasts and must function in any environment. HZO’s protective coating, applied to the internal circuitry of the device, offers that required protection by shielding the electronics from rain, snow, sweat or any harmful liquid work or play might throw at them.

“While searching for an environment protection solution, HZO was the perfect combination of superior protection with minimal footprint,” said David Pyne, Director of Operations at SportEAR. “Our customers find themselves in the harshest environments and rely on our technology. It was critical that our products stood up to any environment with no added weight or compromises. HZO delivers just that.”

HZO has protected SportEAR products for several years, scaling production with the company as they continue to grow.

“HZO is proud to be a part of SportEAR’s innovative products,” said Don Metzger, Chief Sales Officer at HZO. “Our coating is an ideal fit for the small and rugged hearing aids and hearing protection that SportEAR produces.”

HZO protects several SportEAR products in the Custom Fit & Universal Fit categories including the Custom Edge 360 and Open 360. SportEAR devices can be purchased at www.sportear.com.
