    As steadily increasing noise pollution impacts every day life, efforts to control it have assumed increasing importance. This has allowed nonwovens to grow in the acoustics market, where today’s nonwovens producers report success for acoustic nonwovens in automotives, buildings, furniture and other applications. Offering high performing sound absorbing and sound blocking traits, nonwovens offer flexibility, cost-effectiveness and lightweight characteristics.

    “Dalco, as do our competitors, sees the market in acoustical nonwovens as growing,” says Gale Shipley, Automotive sales manager of needlepunch manufacturer Dalco Nonwovens.

    As part of this growth, Shipley’s company is seeing machinery upgrades, to maximize efficiencies and enhancements, as well as new machine orders occurring. “In addition, Dalco characterizes the market as evolving with our customers desiring even greater sound absorption properties that most current technologies cannot provide alone. We see that having the ability to marry different technologies is what will be needed for this evolution to continue.”<
