 Quiet is a necessity in modern trucking. The difference in noise level between a low-end old truck (> 10 years old) and a new, high-end truck is as much as 30 dBA at highway speeds. Most new trucks have standard sound packages. On the high-end trucks, that could include laminated glass and steel. On most trucks, the sound package includes mats, pads and undercoating. Federal government EPA and CAFÉ goals force truck manufacturers to find lightweight noise control material.
For emergency vehicles (police, Fire & toxicity, ambulance), quiet is essential. Emergency personnel often communicate under duress. Split-second timing and communication is routine and can be the difference between a successful mission and a fatality. A noisy cab is not just irritating, it can be life-threatening.
Damping noise and vibration has traditionally been costly and risky – until now. Quiet Solution offers the commercial vehicle sector a complete line of high-performance products to soundproof all types of vehicles and the associated buildings and machinery. Using a new generation of viscoelastic polymers, it is now possible to achieve luxury levels of quiet with a fraction of the bulk, weight and cost of traditional technologies.
The most effective way to mitigate interior noise and vibration is to coat as much of the vehicle as possible with QuietTruck viscoelastic polymer.
