Research has shown that long term exposure to noise can be very detrimental causing partial hearing loss with direct exposure. Due to the creation of friendly machine sound enclosures, operation of heavy machinery have become a vital consideration in any business using such equipment. 

The most common solution is the utilization of special protective architectural noise control equipment for staffs in the area. This is quite an easy and efficient solution that has been adopted by many but this method also has some disadvantages. 

First of all, the reality that the machine works are having their hearing blocked implies that they are less aware of the environment in which they are working, making them more accident prone. The second issue is the main level of noise being generated is still the same. This implies that those not wearing special protection or staying in acoustic chambers can still be in an unpleasant or dangerous situation. 

It is for these reasons that machine sound enclosures have become a more widely adopted solution. These are special constructions that are utilized to encase heavy machinery enabling them to continue working normally while negating the level of sound that they generate. Such enclosures can be as big as you need and are very easy to maintain also. 

This type of architectural noise control processes will assist to improve staff productivity along with enhancing the corporate image of the company. For those wishing to apply acoustic solution, an assortment of specialized providers may be found to offer a suitable option.

Most people realize that that sound travels through air; we know this intuitively as we can hear people when they are talking and we can shout to them when they are far away. It is an easy concept to handle noise present in the air.  Air borne sound Generally, an acoustic solution should handle these problematic areas. Basically, it is an easy solution. Only two things can stop sound, and they are mass and space. Mass is necessary to stop the airborne sound but as solid objects also carry sound, to turn it into structure borne sound, you also have to introduce air space with aluminium wall panels . This brings in common noise isolation methods, where you have a layer of materials followed by an air gap and then another layer of the material.   Noise reduction or absorption One of the main areas of intricac
