QUIES

Quies is a brand dedicated to the design, development and manufacture of protection systems for the external cavity of the ear. These earplugs are specially made of non-aggressive elements such as wax, silicone or polyurethane foam rubber. Its mission is to protect the ear with its wide range of products in all circumstances: foam earplugs for greater discretion or silicone for swimming. The company has evolved by making quality an ethic, innovation a strategy and pragmatism a line of action. Its corporate strategy is based on constant research, paying attention to the little everyday nuisances.

All Quies products are used to protect the ear, especially from loud noises that can be dangerous for the hearing ability: sound becomes noise when it is annoying or harmful to the hearing system. In nature, few sounds are loud, but this is not the case in today's modern world, where ears have not evolved enough to protect them. When sound intensity exceeds reception capacity, consequences such as temporary hearing fatigue, irreversible hearing trauma or even rupture of the eardrum can occur. For those situations where hearing is at risk, it is important to use earplugs that greatly reduce the decibels that can be harmful.

Another benefit of their products is that they protect the ears during water sports. Water carries a multitude of germs and harmful substances that can enter the ear cavity and end up causing infections that can irremediably affect hearing, but the mouldable silicone gel earplugs adapt perfectly to the ear, favouring sealing. The company, which began its venture back in 1918, took off just three years later , Quies, with handmade wax and cotton earplugs whose icon, a sparrowhawk, emblem of silence, became famous. As the years went by, craftsmanship gave way to new mechanisation techniques, while the wax balls evolved into better and better quality and more mouldable products whose researchers are constantly improving and refining them on a daily basis.
