Soundproofing & Acoustic Solutions for Industrial Facilities
Increased levels of noise lead to an immediate release of the “stress” hormone cortisol, which is a natural defence mechanism of the body. With continued and systematically high levels of cortisol, the human body tends to raise blood pressure, increase heart rate, arrhythmia, difficulty breathing occurs, and even diabetes. High levels of sound also lead to an increase in "sick days", the expense of "worker's comp" and the periodic purchase of large quantities of expendables such as personal protective equipment (headphones, earplugs).
High noise levels in the industry bring with them serious financial costs for businesses. When working in noisy work environments above 85 dB, employees' ability to focus drops by more than 60% and increases the likelihood of errors and shortcomings in goods/services.
These factors highlight the need for noise control and noise insulated offices for for factories and process plans. The use of passive sound insulation systems to reduce noise is of particular importance.
The DECIBEL team has developed a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of an investment in soundproofing & acoustic insulation for industrial premises, which takes into account the monetary recoupment period of the noise reduction investment.
Equally innovative is DECIBEL's approach to the design and implementation of DECIBEL's special soundproof booth; which is wholly or partially removable, and allows rapid and easy access to all working surfaces of the soundproofing equipment.
DECIBEL's noise control and noise insulated offices for factories & process plants deliver up to 65dB of total noise reduction.
