Building acoustics, machinery noise and vibrations

RISE Acoustic Laboratory has extensive scientific and practical experience in helping the industry and society by providing sound and vibration testing and verification services. To achieve effective sound design and noise reduction, we recommend involving us early in the process to ensure optimal outcomes.

Sound environment is more than a mere comfort factor; it plays a critical role in our well-being. When sound crosses the threshold into noise, it negatively impacts both our health and cognitive abilities. Noise problems result in sleep disturbance at home, impair learning abilities at schools, and reduce productivity at workplaces. Conversely, a well thought-out sound design creates supporting environments and enhances the competitiveness of products, companies, buildings and cities.

Today’s demands for energy efficiency, resource conservation, and urban development are reshaping the requirements for future buildings and products. Innovations in building components, insulation materials and new machinery, to adapt them to the sustainability demands, can sometimes compromise their acoustic performance. Testing and verifying the acoustic properties of new products – from the initial development phase to final verification – is essential to ensure compliance with regulatory standards and customer expectations.

RISE Acoustic Laboratory offers comprehensive acoustic testing and verification – from basic materials to complete buildings and machinery. Our mission is to contribute to creating sustainable acoustic environments that enhance recreation and relaxation at home, stimulate learning at schools, and foster healthy and creative workplaces.
