Soundmet metal jacketing for environment protection

Metal jacketing is essential to ensure that both temperature and acoustical barrier expectations are met, particularly within the oil & gas industry. The environmental impact of such protection can be high but BS Stainless have developed Soundmet® with this fact in mind; a metal jacketing solution is designed to impact minimally on the environment, making it one of the greenest available solutions for a wide range of applications.

BS Stainless are currently finalising the details of a new jacketing system, which is the result of a powerful two-year project focused on sound reduction, in collaboration with Sheffield Hallam University.SoundMet is a BS Stainless trademark and had been designed with three main principles in mind – effective damping of sound and vibration, a reduction in person-hours, thus labour costs and the prevention of corrosion under insulation (CUI).
