An earmould is a custom-made piece that fits perfectly inside your ear. It’s usually made from soft silicone or acrylic and designed to match the unique shape of your ear canal.
Earmoulds are commonly used with behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids, helping to deliver sound efficiently and comfortably while reducing feedback.
In Australia, earmoulds are essential for both hearing aids and moulded ear protection, providing a secure and personalised fit for people of all ages.
A behind-the-ear hearing aid with an earmould is one of the most popular styles used today.
The earmold connects to the main hearing aid unit via a small tube, guiding amplified sound directly into the ear canal.
If you’re looking for reliable and long-lasting performance, a BTE hearing aid with earmould can be an excellent choice.

There are several earmould styles available, each designed for different hearing needs and ear shapes:
Each earmould can be customised in terms of colour, venting, and material, depending on the user’s comfort and lifestyle.
With the growing use of wireless connectivity, earmoulds with Bluetooth compatibility allow seamless pairing with smartphones, TVs, and other audio devices.
These custom earmoulds for hearing aids ensure a stable fit and optimal sound streaming without discomfort or slippage — perfect for tech-savvy users who value both performance and comfort.
When your earmould is ready, it’s carefully paired with your hearing aid. During this appointment, the audiologist checks the fit, comfort, and acoustic seal, making fine adjustments to optimise sound delivery and minimise feedback.
This personalised fitting process guarantees a secure, comfortable, and highly effective hearing experience, allowing you to enjoy clear and natural sound every day.
