Sil&Add

Sil&Add specializes in the design of conventional and innovative acoustic solutions. Our capabilities for simulation, optimization, and prototyping allow us to create acoustic components — materials and products — with superior custom properties and mechanical resistance.

Our offerings are designed to achieve two primary goals:

1. Enhancing product acoustics as a quality feature by focusing on essential improvements using standard materials.
2. Establishing the product as the acoustic reference in its field through in-depth R&D and by maximizing performance and facilitating the transition from concept to manufactured good. We achieve this by integrating metamaterials or 3D-printed acoustic materials.

Our work extends to addressing noise issues caused by airflow. In these cases, we design solutions that minimize pressure drops while effectively reducing noise.

At Sil&Add, we are committed to delivering innovative acoustic solutions that meet the needs of our clients and ensure superior results.
