Noise protection is a major concern for many industries, including manufacturing plants, auto shops, warehouses, and more. At Singer Safety, we offer a range of industrial noise control solutions to protect your workers, nearby residents, and the environment from the negative impacts of loud noises. In this article, we’ll discuss the benefits of installing noise protection equipment at your facility, the different products we offer, and how to choose the best industrial noise protection for your situation.
How Industrial Noise Control Solutions Offer Noise Protection
Industrial noise control systems offer many noise protection benefits by improving worker safety, decreasing noise pollution, and improving job productivity.
Improved Worker Safety
Over time, exposure to high levels of noise can cause mental and physical harm to workers, particularly in regard to hearing damage or loss. This is because loud noises can hurt the nerves and membranes in a person’s ear, causing them to lose the ability to hear.
Unfortunately, hearing loss isn’t the only hazard caused by noisy work environments. Loud noises at welding facilities, manufacturing warehouses, and other industrial settings can be distracting, reducing workers’ concentration and increasing the likelihood of accidents. Excessive noise can also interfere with workers’ ability to talk to each other, leading to misunderstandings and mistakes.
By controlling noise levels, employers can reduce the risk of hearing impairment among their workers, improve communication, and reduce potentially dangerous distractions. At Singer Safety, our industrial noise control solutions are designed to contain noise within designated areas, improving workplace sound protection and helping to keep workers safe.
Improved Worker Productivity
Not only can loud noises harm workers’ health, but they can impact their productivity by reducing concentration and hurting people’s ability to communicate. Exposure to loud noise can also cause stress, which impacts a worker’s mental health and, subsequently, their productivity.
By installing noise protection systems, employers can contain loud noises in distinct areas, reducing stress and improving workplace productivity.
Decreased Noise Pollution
Noise pollution from industrial workplaces doesn’t only harm workers, but it can also affect nearby businesses, residents, and local wildlife. Furthermore, if noise becomes too big of an issue, it can lead to noise complaints, which may result in legal action if the business is found to be violating local noise regulations. Legal proceedings can be costly and potentially result in restrictions on a business’s operations. In extreme cases, persistent noise complaints can mean that regulatory authorities will have to take action to shut down the operations of the business.
At Singer Safety, our noise control solutions reduce noise pollution by absorbing the sound created by industrial facilities, acting as a barrier between loud facilities and neighboring properties. This lowers the negative impacts of outdoor noise pollution on people who live and work nearby.
Singer Safety’s Options for Workplace Sound Protection
At Singer Safety, we offer a wide range of workplace sound protection options for industries like car washes, distribution centers, and more. Our industrial noise control solutions can create a quieter environment for both workers and local residents, improving overall noise protection at your facility.
Modular Acoustic Screens
Our modular acoustic screens are made of pre-engineered metal panels that can be assembled into many different configurations. The screens provide both visual privacy and acoustic protection for employees.
Loaded Vinyl Screens
Singer Safety’s modular acoustic loaded vinyl screens provide superior noise control results. They are commonly used in areas where sound reductions are desired, and they can help soundproof the area.
Loaded Vinyl Panels
Singer Safety’s single-sided panels can be used to enclose noisy machinery and isolate noise from nearby workers. Our panels are constructed from reinforced mass loaded vinyl barrier materials and one-inch thick quilted fiberglass.
Single-Faced Fiberglass Quilted Panels
Singer Safety’s single-faced fiberglass quilted panels can be used to contain excessive noise in workplaces. They combine sound absorption, noise barrier, and noise-canceling performance. Our customers often use our panels to supplement our acoustic screens and ceiling baffles.
Double-Faced Fiberglass Quilted Panels
Similar to our single-faced fiberglass quilted panels, Singer Safety’s double-faced quilted fiberglass panels offer a noise barrier, sound absorption, and noise canceling on both sides of the panel, helping to create a soundproof area. These panels are lightweight and are typically used to supplement our noise barrier acoustic screens and baffles.
Our double-faced fiberglass quilted panels are constructed using our quilted fiberglass material, which is a lightweight, semi-flexible fiberglass that can be used against flat surfaces or as a standalone panel.
Ceiling Baffles
Ceiling baffles are a cost-effective ceiling treatment that works to reduce sound in large areas. They can be hung from the ceiling to help reduce sounds from echoing in large spaces. Our ceiling baffles also help with sound clarity and speech intelligibility. Singer Safety offers ceiling baffles in a variety of styles, sizes, and colors.
Acoustic Foams
Singer Safety offers high-quality acoustic foams and panels that provide noise absorption for mid-to-high frequency noise ranges. Our acoustic foams can be used to line machines, equipment surfaces, guards, enclosures, walls, and doors to absorb noise from industrial operations. They come in either flat or convoluted surfaces, and they are easy to cut to any size.
DIY Noise Control Materials
Singer Safety Company’s line of DIY noise control materials helps control sound in environments such as studios, churches, gymnasiums, and more. Our DIY noise control products include quilted fiberglass materials rolls and a vibration damper compound, and they are effective and easy to install.
