Building Acoustics & Room Soundproofing

Let us help you find the best solution for your commercial noise control needs by offering a few of the best soundproofing options available.

 

Commercial Soundproofing

Do you have a problem with room soundproofing and building acoustics within your working environment?

Memtech Acoustical is experienced in providing cost-effective commercial soundproofing solutions to a variety of noise control problems. Many rooms and buildings exhibit poor acoustical characteristics which can result in high ambient noise levels, reduced speech intelligibility, excessive reverberation, sleep disturbance, or general annoyance issues. Musical performances are also negatively impacted when rooms or auditoriums exhibit excessive reverberation. Restaurant patrons may have to shout in order to be heard if background noise levels are too high. Office workers may have trouble concentrating in high-noise environments, or where sound is reflected throughout a room.

Well-designed room acoustic treatments do not have to consist of unsightly structures or large domineering panels which block light or limit visibility. We offer a large variety of aesthetically pleasing noise-control products which are non-intrusive, and will enhance the appearance of any room. Various colors, textures and shapes can be used to compliment any type of décor.

In many instances, privacy is a concern, and walls with poor acoustic attenuation can result in the transmission of conversation to adjoining rooms. Animals can become agitated or aggressive if they are boarded in areas where reverberation is excessive. Speakers at churches or school auditoriums may not be clearly heard due to echo from hard-sided walls or ceilings.

We also have the capabilities to provide computer noise-modeling services, to calculate the predicted results from the use of different acoustic treatments or wall designs. This includes ‘before and after’ playback demonstrations to allow the customer to actually hear the modeled differences of different solutions before spending money to purchase and install materials or make major modifications. This is a very effective and reliable method to allow a subjective comparison of noise-control solutions.

Noise masking is another area of expertise that we utilize in instances where budgets are very limited, and privacy is of key importance. Well-designed noise masking systems can ‘cover-up’ conversations from adjoining rooms without annoying occupants.

Memtech Acoustical has the experience to provide cost-effective solutions to these types of problems. We have successfully resolved noise issues for businesses, public facilities, restaurants, churches and schools. We also provide technical noise-abatement design support for architects and builders on new construction projects.

Offices-and-Conference-Rooms-Noise-Control

Offices and Conference Rooms

One of the largest areas of business for MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL relates to mitigating noise problems in offices, conference rooms and other workplace environments. Many offices are subject to high background noise, which may result from excessive reverberation, poor isolation from other areas or outdoor traffic, or simply in maintaining adequate privacy.

HVAC and Power Plant Noise Control

A quiet and private environment is usually necessary at most medical facilities. MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL offers a variety of solutions to reduce annoying reverberation, background noise and to assure that rooms are acoustically isolated to allow for private doctor-patient discussions.
Office-Facilities-and-Government-Buildings-Noise-Control

Government Buildings and Public Utilities

Places of business which require a comfortable working environment and clear communications should be designed with optimum acoustic characteristics. MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL can provide ‘up-front’ design recommendations for new construction, as well as remediation services for current buildings/offices where high background noise or excessive reverberation is present.
Environmental-Noise-Control

Acoustic Barrier Walls

In some cases where neighborhood noise concerns are an issue, the installation of noise barriers may be necessary. These are very effective in controlling noise and are produced in a variety of configurations and designs. Please see our section under “ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE CONTROL” for more information.
Indoor-Firing-Range-nosie-control-2

Gun Firing Range

While firing range noise levels are always significant, highly reverberant indoor shooting facilities can serve to ‘amplify’ the overall noise, resulting in higher-than-necessary sound levels. Wall and ceiling treatments, as well as acoustic baffling structures can minimize these noise levels. MEMTECH has provided effective solutions for a number of shooting ranges.
Indoor-Pools-and-Waterparks-noise-control

Indoor Pools and Waterparks

High noise levels from plumbing and HVAC systems can be reduced by the use of acoustic pipe insulation. Noise from cavitation or hydraulic ‘hammer’ effects can be significantly reduced with these materials, with the added benefit of controlling cavitation.
Churches-Religious-Facilities-and-Non-Profit-nosie-control

Churches and Religious Facilities

All houses of worship require that the speaker be clearly heard throughout the sanctuary, without the presence of excessive echo or ‘muffling’ of speech. This requires the careful application of noise-control materials at strategic locations such that communication is both clear and comfortable to the congregation. In addition, acoustic isolation may be required in some adjoining rooms, such that the sounds of crying children or other noises do not conflict with sermons or teaching. MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL has worked with many places of worship to resolve difficult noise and reverberation concerns.
Animal-Care-Facilities-noise-control

Animal Care Facilities

Barking dogs and other animal sounds can create a cacophony of noise is many animal care facilities, which makes verbal communication difficult, and can cause unnecessary stress to the animals. MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL can design sound absorbing solutions to reduce the overall noise levels at affordable prices.
Schools-and-Gymnasiums-noise-control

Schools and Gymnasiums

Large gymnasiums and school auditoriums are often overly reverberant, which may cause annoyance in adjoining rooms, as well as cause difficulty in assuring clear verbal communication. MEMTECH ACOUSICAL has engineered and installed highly effective noise absorption and control materials in a number of schools and colleges to eliminate many of these concerns.
Recording-Studios-and-Soundstages-noise-control

Recording Studios and Soundstages

Studios require special design considerations to avoid being overly ‘live’ or excessively ‘dead’. The strategic installation of sound-absorbing or reflecting materials can overcome these undesirable artifacts, and assure a desirable sound quality. In addition, contaminating noise from outside the building or from adjoining rooms can cause serious issues when recording quiet music. MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL can assist in resolving these problems, and design a solution to meet your specific needs.
courthouse-hall-noise-control

Court Houses & Hallways

Large public rooms or hallways may have unacceptable reverberation (echo) which makes conversation difficult and can result in reduced concentration. The addition of aesthetically pleasing acoustic absorbing materials can significantly reduce the ‘echo’ effects, and can be configured to match the decor or desired appearance of the area.
Restaurants-and-Bars-noise-control

Restaurants and Bars

Many public restaurants and bars experience excessive noise during busy times, requiring patrons to raise their voices to talk, or simply provide an unacceptable ‘din’ that can disrupt the desired atmosphere. In other venues, where live music may be playing, high levels of reverberation may cause ‘muddling’ of voices or instruments, MEMTECH ACOUSTICAL has the experience and skills to resolve these types of problems using cost-effective solutions.
