1 to 1 Hearing Loops 

One to One hearing loops are used in a variety of environments such as bank counters, and supermarket checkouts. They assist in situations where conversation takes place between two people and can be either fixed or portable.

Large Loop Systems

Large area hearing loops (also known as induction loops) are installed in settings where a large number of people can benefit from a superior listening experience, such as theatres, classrooms, and conference centres.

Infrared Systems

Infrared (IR) systems operate much like traditional TV remote controls. Transmitters flood infrared light so the required area is covered, allowing users to pick up the audio signal using a range of compatible IR receivers. ​

Radio Frequency Systems

Our radio frequency systems, also known as FM systems, use wireless radio waves to transmit sound directly to listening options such as headphones or inductive neckloops. The range includes portable as well as large-scale transmitters.

Window Intercom Systems

This Open Duplex Technology allows for effective speech transfer through obstacles like partitions and safety glass. Without this system, conversations through screens at banks, retailers, hospitals, and other service counters are often ineffective.
