Silicone Ear Plugs

Ear Jellies Are Low Pressure and Boast a Comfortable Fit

— March 23, 2018 — Art & Design
Ear Jellies are the first ear plugs of their kind, made from MemorySil™ Viscoelastic Silicone that offers a comfortable and highly functional fit.

The Ear Jellies brand boldly describes the products as "the world's most comfortable ear plugs," and given their soft and malleable texture, this may prove to be true. They do not cause the same levels of irritation that foam earplugs might, and have a functional fit that ensures they don't fall out of the ear as the user sleeps or works.

Ear Jellies can be reused for several months, or years if taken care of and cleaned properly, and come in a range of colors that include pink, light blue, dark blue, brown, a pale nude, purple, and red.
Trend Themes
1. Comfortable Ear Plugs - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating even more comfortable ear plugs for maximum user satisfaction.
2. Reusable Ear Plugs - Potential for disruptive innovation to create reusable ear plugs that are durable and environmentally friendly.
3. Colorful Ear Plugs - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing ear plugs in a variety of colors to suit individual preferences.
Industry Implications

2. Health and Safety - Potential for disruptive innovation in the health and safety industry to develop advanced ear plugs that provide superior protection and comfort.
