Acoustic Insulators for Engine Compartments

The certified nonwoven solution

At the forefront of automotive engineering, the balance between performance, safety, and acoustic comfort is a constant challenge. Reducing noise, vibrations, and harshness (NVH) requires materials designed to withstand extreme conditions without compromising safety.
 
At Murtra Nonwovens, we provide acoustic insulators for engine compartments that not only meet requirements but redefine the standard in reliability and sustainability.
 
 

The challenge: soundproofing and protection in the most demanding environment

The engine compartment combines high temperatures, vibrations, and exposure to fluids. Proper soundproofing directly influences the vehicle’s perceived quality and the comfort of both driver and passengers. Imagine an engine roaring, yet a cabin in silence!
 
Insulation materials must not only block sound and heat, but also ensure safety, withstand extreme conditions, and comply with the strictest automotive regulations.

Features of our acoustic nonwovens for engines

 
• Optimized Acoustic Performance: fiber structure that absorbs and dissipates sound waves, ensuring superior in-cabin comfort. 
• Certified Flame Resistance: fire-retardant materials that meet the strictest international standards, protecting both vehicle and occupants.
• Maximum Protection and Durability: water- and oil-repellent treatments protect key components and extend the insulator’s lifespan, even under direct fluid exposure.
• Efficiency and Sustainability: lightweight materials that improve fuel efficiency, available in sustainable product lines to support environmental goals.
 
 

Applications in the engine compartment

Our nonwoven acoustic solutions are highly versatile and can be applied in critical areas to reduce vehicle noise and engine vibration:
 
1- Engine bay: main shield between the engine and cabin, blocking heat and noise.
2- Hoodliner insulation: absorbs sound projected outward and protects the hood paint from extreme heat.
3- Battery Box: provide thermal insulation and vibration protection for essential electrical components.
