Abstract: The invention relates to designing cases for hearing apparatuses more cost-effectively and ensuring an improved degree of hygiene. A box has an outer shell made out of a first plastic and an interior lining made out of a second plastic that is softer than the first plastic. The interior lining is attached to the inner wall of the outer shell. The interior lining is injected onto the outer shell. One or a number of hold-down devices formed in one piece with the interior lining protrude into the internal space of the interior lining in order to hold the hearing apparatus there. A jointless compound forms with the outer shell so that the soft interior lining is injected onto the hard outer shell. Water is thus unable to permeate into possible joints during cleaning and the case can be cleaned in a dishwasher for instance in respect of improved hygiene.
