No, the Lite-Com does have ’Passive’ Noise Protection. So they are capable of blocking out the noise from the material that they are made of. If you do require ’Active’ Noise Protection you need the Peltor Lite-Com Plus – Stock Number 789-7615.

Why are ear defenders necessary?

Hearing protection is designed to protect the user from extreme noise levels. The padding of the cushion is made from a type of acoustic foam that absorbs the waves to stop them from reaching the eardrum.

Some everyday tasks can damage your hearing and can have a catastrophic effect. So it's important to protect yourself of task/activities such as mowing the lawn.
