Meet KFB
For over a decade, our team has been dedicated to resolving intricate noise and vibration challenges while providing comprehensive services to organizations across diverse industries. With a profound understanding and a multidisciplinary approach, we harmoniously blend various scientific fields to craft bespoke acoustic solutions.
Values we share
We use the following core values to guide us on our journey:-
WE > I
We look for a team player mindset with an autonomous work practice. We work with people who never let others wait for their part of the job. We hold a conviction that nothing grand comes easily.
-
ACCOUNTABILITY MATTERS
We push for open communication even when it’s tough, whether that means being transparent about our failures. We have chosen to embrace honesty as the path to an incredible team and a brand worth believing in.
-
LEARN ALWAYS
We strive to learn both from failure and success. We constantly push ourselves to learn new things (personally, professionally, physically, and spiritually). We believe that the best way to learn, is to do.
-
POWER OF COLLABORATION
We leverage creativity and the resources at-hand instead of looking elsewhere for the answers. We believe in the importance of maximizing partnerships, realizing the potential of our team. Together with our partners we push the boundaries of possibilities and challenge the status quo.
-
INTEGRITY
We expect everyone to be honest, ethical and trustworthy. We may succeed. We may fail. But, by working together, with integrity and respect, we will always be doing things the right way, and we just might achieve something that others may not believe possible.
-
GENEROSITY AND SPIRIT
We seek out team members, partners, investors, collaborators and mentors who choose humility over arrogance, assume good intentions amongst one another, and though we will have many differences of belief and perspective, always treat one another with respect.

Life at KFB is about Acoustics. And acoustic is our life.-

… and those who create our culture everyday and drive us towards excellence and curiosity:
Think big. Explore broadly. Collaborate constantly.
Our mission is said simply, yet it is quite ambitious. We want to better understand the acoustics…and we want to use the knowledge we gain to discover and develop technologies that enable people to live less noisy and healthier lifes.
We are not a traditional technology company, nor are we a research institute. We look to combine the best parts of both without the constraints of either.
We empower our clients by harnessing their technological lead through development of effective, robust & noiseless products and by delivering solutions that prevent and control noise & vibration pollution. Successfully, with guaranteed performance and compliance.
