Problem
Traditional noise and vibration control solutions are often bulky, heavy, and rely on sound-absorbing raw materials that are not sustainable. In sectors like transportation, infrastructure, and home appliances, these conventional approaches struggle to address low-frequency noise effectively while meeting weight, cost, and environmental requirements.
Solution
Phononic Vibes develops and manufactures acoustic metamaterial solutions that control noise and vibration through shape and topology rather than raw material properties. The company's MetaMaterial technology enables the use of recycled and non-absorbing materials while achieving superior acoustic performance, particularly at low frequencies where traditional solutions fail. Phononic Vibes offers a full service from diagnostic analysis and numerical simulation to prototyping and production, with a dedicated metamaterial manufacturing facility. The company has developed applications including transparent sound-absorbing panels for railway infrastructure, anti-vibration modules for mechanical systems, and acoustic solutions for home appliances and public spaces.
Target Audience
Primary customers include infrastructure operators and railway companies, home appliance manufacturers, automotive and transportation OEMs, and industrial equipment producers seeking advanced noise and vibration control solutions.
