Noise
Mannvit Engineering offers professional noise measurement and control field services for industrial noise, workplace noise, residential noise and environmental noise.  The company's engineering expertise and experience in acoustical measurement, design and solving acoustical problems spans over 30 years.  

The company employs specialists in acoustics and holds an extensive collection of measurement equipment from Brüel & Kjær, and its facilities and programs are state-of-the-art.  We also work collaboratively with other departments within the company such as traffic planners, ventilation, structures, project managers and environmental departments.

Industrial noise is more than just a nuisance, it is an issue of environmental health and safety.  Prolonged exposure to industrial, occupational and workplace noise can pose real hazards for employees including hearing loss, increased blood pressure and increased workplace accidents.  Beyond the health risks, industrial noise also lowers worker productivity by impeding concentration.  

Environmental noise is any displeasing sound that is disruptive to people or animals.  The sources of this noise are most generally transportation systems, including cars, aircraft and trains, but can come from any number of sources.  Poor urban planning, in respect to noise, can affect businesses and residential neighborhoods as well as the natural environment and wildlife.

Mannvit offers specialized services in noise measurements, assessments and control for:
  • Industrial noise
  • Environmental noise
  • Traffic noise
  • Residential development
  • Site noise monitoring
  • Noise in the workplace
