Noise & Mitigation
When conventional acoustic treatments fail, we resolve the underlying transmission mechanism.
Persistent noise issues are rarely solved by surface-level acoustic treatment. In most cases, the true cause lies in structure-borne vibration, complex transmission paths, or coupled mechanical-acoustic behaviour.
We specialise in forensic acoustic engineering — identifying exactly how noise is generated, transmitted, and radiated, then engineering targeted interventions that deliver measurable and permanent reduction.
Acoustic Problem Solving
Our approach integrates high-resolution measurement, structural dynamics, and analytical modelling to resolve chronic noise complaints and regulatory compliance failures where conventional methods have been insufficient.
-
Structure-Borne Transmission: We identify how mechanical vibration propagates through connected structures and re-radiates as airborne noise, often distant from the original source.
-
Source Path Contribution: We quantify the relative contribution of individual machines, structural elements, and transmission paths to isolate the dominant drivers of noise.
-
Environmental Impact Assessment: We measure and model noise emissions against BS 4142 and local authority criteria, identifying both compliance status and required engineering actions.
-
Engineered Mitigation: We design targeted solutions including isolation systems, structural modifications, acoustic enclosures, and damping strategies — all based on verified transmission mechanisms.
This is not generic noise control. It is engineered resolution of the actual physical mechanism driving the problem.
