Sound Insulation Materials
Our sound insulation materials are engineered to address noise problems in commercial, residential, and industrial settings. These customizable solutions include mass barriers, acoustic foams, and fire-retardant composites that reduce reverberation and transmission. Designed for applications like engine rooms, home theaters, and marine environments, they offer lightweight durability and thermal benefits while meeting safety standards.
Thermal Insulation
Thermal insulation solutions provide temperature control for low- and high-temperature environments. Products include urethane boards, polystyrene, and high-temperature blankets that prevent heat transfer. Ideal for industrial machinery, marine engines, and HVAC systems, these materials enhance energy efficiency while complementing acoustic treatments in combined noise-and-heat scenarios.
Custom Sound Shields
Custom sound shields are tailored to fit generators, compressors, and industrial equipment. Constructed from fiberglass batting and vinyl barriers, these shields offer 19+ dB STC ratings. Features include removable panels, Velcro seals, and powder-coated aluminum frames for marine or stationary use, ensuring easy maintenance and aesthetic appeal.
Super Silencer
The patented Super-Silencer is a flexible, flame-resistant sound shield for diesel and gas generators. Its quilted vinyl and fiberglass construction reduces noise by exceeding mass law performance. Lightweight, water-resistant, and easy to install, it includes customizable options like double barriers and Velcro flaps for enhanced noise sealing in marine or industrial settings.
Heat Shields
Heat shields combine thermal protection with acoustic benefits. These composite materials feature fire-retardant layers and pressure-sensitive adhesives for applications in engine compartments, exhaust systems, and industrial enclosures. Available in multiple thicknesses, they prevent heat damage while reducing noise transmission in automotive, marine, and manufacturing environments.
