What is an Acoustic Consultant?
An acoustic consultant plays a pivotal role in measuring and assessing noise-related challenges affecting our daily lives. A consultant also assists in determining potential acoustic impacts from proposed developments and new plant installations. We specialise in assessing, and assisting with noise mitigation strategies that can arise in industrial, commercial, and environmental settings.
With expertise in the science of sound, an acoustic consultant blends technical knowledge with practical solutions to manage noise levels in line with current legislation—enhancing workplace environments and improving quality of life.
Wakefield Acoustics provides a comprehensive turnkey solution to address your noise control challenges. Whilst we offer in-house acoustic support as part of our end-to-end service, we also regularly collaborate with independent acoustic consultants. We welcome the opportunity to work alongside consultancy firms, offering technical guidance on our products to support compliance with noise impact assessments and ensure optimal acoustic performance.
