So, Why the Cow?

Soundproof Cow, a division of American Micro Industries, Inc., is a woman-owned and operated American manufacturer that has been solving residential and commercial noise problems since the early 1990s from our facility in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. We believe in honesty and education. That is why we publish the exact performance ratings for the materials we sell, including STC and NRC ratings where applicable. Our product pages state clearly what a material will and will not fix. We have complete assemblies for contractors to ensure that they achieve code requirements, including flammability requirements. Our Quiet Batt® cotton insulation is made from 80% recycled fiber and takes 54% less energy to produce than other types of insulation. Before a customer spends anything, they can have an acoustic analysis of their space completed by a member of our team, at no cost.

We have always had actual people answering our phones, and we always will.

YOU + acoustic science + soundproofing solution = THE COW

Our goal is to take a complicated topic and make it accessible to our customers, creating a site where anyone, no matter what their knowledge level of acoustics, can find a solution for their sound problem. Acoustics and soundproofing can be difficult subject matters. The acoustic industry is full of terms, acronyms and industry jargon foreign to most people. Even the concept of ‘sound’ is challenging to explain—it’s abstract and unseen and describing it can be difficult at best.

We can give the equations, logarithms and scientific data—but we know the majority of our customers don’t have the time to learn and apply equations or to understand the ‘why’ of acoustics—and besides, that’s why we’re here! Most of our customers know they have a sound/noise issue and just want to know how to fix it.

Marrying our complicated industry to an approachable format kept us up at night—there had to be a way to be both knowledgeable and customer friendly. We kept searching and digging, spending countless hours listening to our customers, until literally, the cows came home!

Our customers have complex problems. We make it easy to find solutions. We take the complicated and make it un-complicated—hence, THE COW as our acoustic products icon!

The cow represents the simplicity of finding a solution, website user-friendliness and the peace of mind you’ll get when working with us. Our site weaves the complicated, intimidating, profound science of acoustics with the very un-complicated, unassuming, universally familiar cow. The cow links you to the science of acoustics to your soundproofing solution. At Soundproofcow.com, we stand apart from the heard… we mean …herd.

Although we may not always take ourselves so seriously, we are serious about our customers and the business of serving them. We’re dedicated to providing quality products, excellent information and top-notch service. We are here when you need us, call 1-866-949-9COW.
