Noise & Vibration
Saint-Gobain are committed to providing comfort in every aspect of your life. This includes the reduction of Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) as a performance benefit of our solutions.
Minimising Noise
Noise can be irritating and unpleasant for the end user. Yet for applications with a number of small moving parts, noise often seems unavoidable. Saint-Gobain engineers are committed to designing products that provide a quieter and more pleasant experience, time after time.
Vibration Reduced
As the physical oscillating movement of a body or object, vibration can create unnecessary noise and discomfort for the user. It also increases and accelerates wear on an assembly. Our PTFE material solutions reduce vibration which can lead to a longer life for components and product, and a more enjoyable experience for the end user.
Our newly built anechoic chamber, situated in our Bristol site, UK, provides a state-of-the art testing environment that can be utilised for testing multiple automotive systems. Find out more about how we can reduce buzz, squeak and rattle
An optimised NORGLIDE® Bearing developed with a unique product structure and low coefficient of friction makes for a smoother ride for the Bicyclist, with none of the irritating noises.
Air conditioning units are required to operate continuously for extended periods of times. Even minor noise within these systems can irritate end users. Minimising noise at source is crucial in delivering a quality end product.
Saint-Gobain's anechoic chamber can help you achieve noise-free applications and increase the quality perception of your car.
