What Is Vibration Isolation?
Vibration isolation reduces or eliminates sound transmission through a wall by absorbing structural vibration. A vibration isolation system works by decoupling the surface and filling the space with absorptive and dampening materials that stifle vibrations and dissipate the energy. At Soundproof Cow, we produce vibration isolation systems for walls, ceilings, and floors that help to contain or block out noise.
What Are the Best Materials for Vibration Isolation?
The best materials for sound vibration are those capable of absorbing energy when a wall, floor, or ceiling vibrates. Soundproof Cow has a wide range of vibration isolation equipment that you can use when building new walls, renovating a ceiling, or installing floor materials.
isoTRAX® Decoupling Equipment
The isoTRAX® product line features decoupling systems for new walls and ceilings. These systems consist of steel hat channels that connect to the wall studs or floor joists. The channels run horizontally from stud to stud or joist to joist, creating space between drywall layers or between the ceiling and floor joists to reduce sound transmission. Placing vibration isolation pads on the simple mounting brackets or using padded direct-fix brackets can enhance the results by dampening vibrations.

- Vibration isolation for ceilings: isoTRAX® Soundproofing System Ceiling Package
Impact Barrier QT Flooring Underlayment
Impact Barrier QT Flooring Underlayment is a rubber sheet that isolates the subfloor from the outermost flooring material. Installing this vibration-resistant floor underlayment softens the impact of footsteps and other interacting forces.
Green Glue Noiseproofing Compound
Green Glue is an adhesive substance that can isolate building materials or affix dampening materials to the back side of a wall, ceiling or floor.
Sound Dampening and Deadening Materials
Our dampening and deadening materials reduce the magnitude of a surface’s vibration, reducing structural vibrations and sound transmission:
- RoadBlockR™: Peel-and-place soundproofing sheets for cars.
- Vibra Block: Transparent sound-deadening pads for industrial environments.
- Silent running: Water-based soundproofing paint that deadens vibrations and dissipates airborne noise.
Joist Isolators
Floor joist isolators are U-shaped thermoplastic pads that soften the sound transmission between the joists and the subfloor.
