Quieting a ship requires three actions: (i) Isolating ship engines, transmissions, pumps and air handling machines which are often rigidly mounted to the main frame, so noise and vibration are transmitted through the structure. (ii) coating the hull and other substrate to mitigate structure-borne noise from propagating throughout the ship; (iii) adding absorptive material in the engine compartment to mitigate airborne noise.

Damping noise and vibration has traditionally been costly and risky – until now. Quiet Solution offers the marine industry a complete line of high-performance products to soundproof all types of boats, ships 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 hull and passenger areas as possible with QuietBoat (composite) or QuietShip (aluminum and steel) viscoelastic polymer.
