Martinson-Nicholls, an American company, has recently developed a carpet that can significantly reduce unpleasant noise.
This innovative carpet is made from bonded vinyl fibers, capable of reducing noise levels by 10-12 decibels. To minimize sound at the source, it can be installed directly over noisy machines. In environments with mixed noise, such as workshops, the carpet can be hung like a soundproof curtain. In addition to its noise-reducing capabilities, this carpet also helps to reduce vibrations from machinery during operation. Furthermore, the carpet is resistant to oil and chemicals, and interestingly, the dirtier it gets, the more effective it becomes in sound absorption.
