Soundproofing a car engine – reduce engine noise and improve driving comfort
Soundproofing the engine in your car is an effective way to reduce noise that would otherwise spread from the engine compartment into the passenger compartment. Engine noise, vibrations, and resonances are transmitted through the bodywork and affect both comfort and the sound environment. With the right sound insulation in the engine compartment and under the hood, both structure-borne noise and airborne noise can be dampened, resulting in a noticeably quieter and more pleasant driving experience.
Advantages of sound insulation for car engines
Less engine noise in the passenger compartment
Sound insulation of the engine compartment reduces noise from the engine and drivetrain that would otherwise penetrate the car.
Reduced vibrations
Vibration damping reduces resonance that spreads through the body and firewall.
Improved acoustic comfort
A lower base level of engine noise provides a quieter and more harmonious sound environment.
Reduced fatigue
Lower noise levels contribute to better concentration on both short and long journeys.
Higher perceived quality
A quieter engine experience gives the car a more luxurious and well-built impression.
More stable engine compartment
Less vibration contributes to fewer noises from components and interior fittings.
Areas of application for sound insulation in the car's engine compartment
Engine hood
Sound and heat damping directly above the engine.
Bulkhead
Reduces sound transmission between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment.
Side surfaces in the engine compartment
Reduces resonance from the body's sheet metal surfaces.
Component-close surfaces
Stabilization of surfaces around the engine and peripheral equipment.
Connections and transitions
Reduces vibrations and sound leakage between different body parts.
Flexible solutions adapted for the car's engine compartment
SilentDirect's products are developed to work effectively in the demanding environment of the engine compartment:
Vibration-damping materials
SilentDirect Polaric and SilentDirect Neo are used on sheet metal surfaces to reduce structure-borne noise.
