Quiet Mark is an independent third party, where consumers, trade buyers, and architects can go to find verified third-party-checked quiet machines. Their testing covers a wide range of products, including not just home appliances but also forklift trucks, computer mice, and noise cancelling headphones. Their goal is to make it standard for every dishwasher, for example, to operate under a certain decibel level and offer sound quality that is carefully considered during the research and design stage. With a Quiet Mark accreditation, consumers can easily identify quieter products for their home to benefit well-being.

Siemens began its partnership with Quiet Mark in January 2023, and currently offers over 60 large appliances with Quiet Mark status. Look out for the Quiet Mark badge on the appliances to find them.

Technology has made our homes more efficient and convenient than ever before, but it has also made them noisier. Our daily lives are accompanied by the sounds of TVs, traffic, ringing phones, and working appliances. Fortunately, Poppy Szkiler is trying to do something about it. Poppy co-founded Quiet Mark in 2011 with the goal of creating a certification program that identifies the quietest appliances and technology products on the market. As a result, consumers are informed about the noise levels of their tech before they buy.

We spoke to Poppy about the impact of noise on our lives, what Quiet Mark is doing to address it, and how manufacturers such as Siemens are contributing.
