nature® plus - the premium fitting choice for RIC. This larger design has numerous advantages: an increased sealing for optimum protection, reinforced grip for greater wearing comfort and additional grip material for comfortable and easy handling. Made from thermo-flexible PU or robust acrylate, nature® plus guarantees durability and quality.
// increased sealing
// additional grip
// more grip material for comfortable handling
nature® plus provides extra security and control in the fitting. The larger design provides additional support, increased sealing and simplifies insertion and removal of the hearing aid. The earmold fits snugly behind the second bend and closes with the tragus - a product design that provides not only flexibility but also maximum reliability.

We design all nature® classic retentions as discreetly as possible. For this reason, the short hook, ring and claw only have one or two thin bars as a transition from the earmold to the retention. The tragus area and the inner part towards the base of the concha are therefore not covered with material. This enables the filigree and feather-light design of the nature® classic - even with retention.
Short hook
This minimalist support covers little ear tissue, is therefore barely visible and offers reliable support.
Claw
The claw shape ensures a secure hold thanks to its holding points in the cymba and on the antitragus.
Ring
This support utilizes all the attachment points of the auricle, has good heat dissipation and enables easy insertion and removal.
The nature® plus retentions are modeled as discreetly as possible. The transition from the earmold to the retention is seamless. The larger design means that more material is available in the tragus area and the inner concha for support.

1,4 mm
normal
1,4 mm is our proven standard wall thickness. All nature® earmolds in this thickness maintain the perfect balance between too much and too little. They combine a comfortable fit with good fixation of the hearing aid and at the same time have room to move without being too soft.
0,8 mm
thin
Extremely thin walls of just 0.8 mm can be created from our thermo-flexible material. These thin and flexible walls adapt to every movement of the ear canal and allow the nature® earmold to virtually melt into the ear - for a feather-light wearing comfort.
Our tip: We recommend a thin wall thickness for mild to moderate hearing loss.
max.
solid
The solid construction ensures that the receiver is optimally guided in the cavity provided for it and thus enables a secure hold in the earmold. The receiver cannot slip or wobble.
Our tip: The wall thickness depends on the earpiece size and is made as solid as possible.
nature® earmolds made of rigid material require an insert to fix the receiver in place. nature® made of thermo-flexible material can also be manufactured by us without an insert part, as this material can be heated and slim tubes or RICs can be placed directly into the bore. This guarantees the smallest possible size and, in combination with our standard bore (2.0 mm), creates the basis for a large number of manufacturers.
*Excluding Audio Service, Signia, Siemens and Connex Version 2.0.
We supplement our ventings with three additional options.
Normal
Additional waxing on the tragus increases the seal.
Graded (Stepvent)
Additional waxing on the tragus increases the seal.
Separate
A ventilation hole is drilled above and below the receiver hole.
Extension for all vents
With this option, the ventings can be easily enlarged during the fitting process. We place the appropriate holes in advance to simplify post-processing.
An opening provides additional ventilation of the ear tissue and better heat dissipation. In addition, openings can be used to create more space for the installation of the receiver in narrow spaces or a highly angled ear canal.
Good to know! Unlike a recess, the functional edges remain intact, resulting in significantly more stability and hold.
tragus side
concha side
both sides
Recesses serve to ventilate sensitive ears. Significantly less heat is generated in the area of these cavities, as the skin remains free and is therefore not restricted in its thermo-regulating function.
tragus side
concha side
both sides
The option jaw joint recess avoids the area of the jaw joint in the ear canal with the nature® earmold. This reduces chewing noises and resonances of the skull bone and provides an optimal sound image. Whether open or closed depends on the type and method of fitting.
offen
geschlossen
The nature® earmold can be selected with an already fitted retrieval thread, with a separately enclosed retrieval thread for later fitting or without a retrieval thread.
We use the HF4 Black audio service filter for earwax guard as standard. Optionally we install CeruStop.
In addition to the serial number, we engrave a name of your choice or an individual number on the earmold. Up to 11 characters are possible.
Our earmolds are marked blue for left and red for right as standard.
A special sandblasting process is used to anti-reflect the earmold on the surfaces facing the ear canal. This creates an even, silky matt surface that neither reflects nor gleams, even in strong light, thus ensuring minimal visibility in the ear.
All special shapes can be ordered in all materials. Many other options are also possible, e.g. antireflection or customized laser engraving.

Are you looking for a very special shape and haven't found it yet?
Then simply write to us with your request: support@bachmaier.de
If required, we will send you a digital twin in advance for production approval.
Extended version
This earmold enables precise earpiece positioning in narrow ear canals. With Thermo-Flex, the wax guard is always integrated and an insert is optional, while the rigid version always uses a wax guard and an insert.
All supports available.
Light
Very high heat dissipation due to minimal skin surface coverage by the material. Only recommended for low reinforcements and pronounced anatomies.
All supports available.
Half
Earmold for extremely difficult earpiece placements.
Only available without supports.
Old shape
Earmold with central ex-earpiece position and four cut-outs for more flexibility in fitting.
All supports available.
Shortened version
Earmold for extremely small ears. Only recommended for pronounced anatomies due to the low retention.
Only available without support.
