Food Processing Plant Reduces Noise with Sound Barrier

 

Food Processing Plant Project – A facility manager for a food processing plant contacted Acoustiblok. Their facility exceeded regulatory sound limits, by as much as 16dB at certain frequencies. They were assessed with a sound violation when several neighbors complained about the noise and they needed a solution.

Acoustiblok had the answer to their problem. Our custom solution required a combination of an All Weather Sound Panel noise enclosure and an Acoustifence hanging barrier, that was installed in vertical sections.

The customer is very pleased with the results. Following the installation of the enclosure and barrier, they were cleared of their sound violation. County officials closed the complaint against the company because the solution reduced the sound to the ambient noise level.

Below is a chart that shows the regulatory limits on sound by frequency. It also shows the sound level before the treatment, with only the Acoustifence “tarps”, and finally with the panel enclosure.
