Since the onset of the pandemic, consumers have been forced to wear masks when out and about, and to help curb some of the discomforts of wearing the facial coverings, Crema Joe launched an upcycled 'Ear Saver.' As its name suggests, this piece of plastic will can be used to secure the bands of a mask instead of using your ears.
“They're particularly useful for hearing aid and hijab wearers too,” says Kayla Mossuto, co-founder of Crema Joe. “The downside is, whether mass-produced or 3D-printed, ear savers get made from virgin plastic.”
Not only do the Ear Savers help increase comfort, they're also environmentally friendly. Made from hard-to-recycle plastic caps, the durable accessory relieves the pressure from the ears with its molded plastic hooks.
