If you have access to them, I would cut some foam swimming pool noodles in half lengthwise and wrap them around the pipes, then secure with duct tape. Easy and cheap!
I have a some noise and from what I am tell I need to add some cushion around my pipes but would need to tear down walls to do so and the plumber said it’s not worth the work unless I’m already tearing into the walls.
The noise of flowing water is normal. Banging noises would be from air in the pipes and I don't know.
Here are some options for you.

And this is what worked for me before I had the house replaced with copper pipes.
