NOVODAMP® Closed-cell Polyurethane
NOVODAMP® – High-Performance Elastic Support for Vibration Isolation
Engineered in Germany. Trusted Worldwide.
NOVODAMP® Closed-Cell Polyurethane is the premium solution for elastic support and vibration isolation in buildings, rail infrastructure, and mass-spring systems. Developed and manufactured in Germany under the strictest quality controls, NOVODAMP® ensures durable, reliable, and precisely engineered performance for demanding applications.
NOVODAMP® delivers effective vibration isolation for:
Rail tracks – Achieve precise isolation at higher frequencies starting from approx. 8 Hz.
Building foundations – Protect sensitive structures from vibration damage and improve occupant comfort.
Transition zones – Minimize noise and vibrations in areas with changing stiffness conditions.
With an application range starting at approximately 8 Hz, NOVODAMP® extends our vibration isolation portfolio by delivering a high-performance solution for higher-frequency requirements — perfectly complementing our spring elements designed for the low-frequency range.
15 different NOVODAMP® types, available in multiple thicknesses, cover a wide spectrum of load ranges and can be custom-tailored to your project’s bearing frequency.

Compared to open-cell elastomer materials, NOVODAMP® offers:
- Minimal water absorption – Perfect for groundwater zones, maintaining consistent support frequency.
- Exceptional durability – Closed-cell structure resists degradation from moisture and contaminants.
- Low loss factor – Enhances vibration isolation efficiency.
Custom Manufacturing for Your Project
NOVODAMP® can be tailored precisely to your project requirements. We can supply it cut or glued to any shape, incorporate recesses for specific design needs, and apply a protective fleece layer at the factory to safeguard against mechanical damage — particularly valuable for under-ballast rail track installations. For cost-effective and performance-optimized solutions, NOVODAMP® can also be combined with NOVOFILL elastomeric rubber foam in strip and pad bearings. This hybrid approach reduces the use of premium NOVODAMP® to targeted areas, lowering overall material costs while enabling lower support frequencies for enhanced vibration isolation.
Vibration protection for buildings & building extensions
Sample application. Additional use cases are possible, such as gym floors, helipads, rooftop bars, and more. A combination of NOVODAMP® and NOVOFILL can also be applied.
Protection against noise and vibration for rail tracks
NOVODAMP® Base plates, Rails pads and Under Sleeper Pads (USP)
GERB doesn’t just supply NOVODAMP® — we partner with you from design to delivery:
