„Strange noise is louder than your own noise.“
For this purpose we offer the following services to our clients:
Consulting, planning and assessment of issues regarding building acoustics
In the course of the planning, our building physics engineers discuss both the legal building requirements based on DIN 4109 as well as individual, use-specific noise protection concepts, e.g. based on proposals from DAGA (German Annual Conference for Acoustics) or various VDI guidelines (Association of German Engineers) with our clients. Calculating the expected noise protection provides planning security and you know what quality to expect from your building.
In the course of renovations or the conversion of existing buildings, we demonstrate all of the possibilities for building acoustics optimization and stand as competent planners for high-quality but also economically reasonable concepts.
Our range of services includes the examination of airborne, impact and installation noise as well as the technical noise protection of plants of all kinds.
In the event of issues or matters of dispute, we are at your disposal with expert advice and prepare the required expert opinion on all aspects of building acoustics.
Noise protection certificate according to DIN 4109
The noise protection certificate according to DIN 4109 is required in the course of the approval planning for submission to the building law authority. If we are involved in the planning at an early stage, we can advise you comprehensively, neutrally and professionally on the requirements, so that the noise protection certificate is ultimately only a matter of form and an integral part of a well-founded building acoustics planning. With the sound insulation certificate, we prove the required quality of the respective noise protection in your building by means of calculation.
Measurement of airborne and impact sound, component testing
Different types of sound measurements are not only required in disputes. For example, measurements of airborne and impact sound during the construction period are used for quality assurance in the interests of both the contractors and the client. Acceptance measurements for noise protection after completion can be required by the building law authority as well as by the client. Such a measurement represents the quantification of the noise protection of the component to be measured (e.g. wall or ceiling). As a recognized testing laboratory according to DIN 4109, we are the professional partner at your side for noise measurements of all kinds.

Measurement of installation noise
Installation noise includes all noises from building services installations. These include, for example, sanitary installations, ventilation equipment and elevators. Sound measurement of such systems takes place during precisely defined operating cycles of the system. As a recognized noise protection testing laboratory for building acoustics according to DIN 4109, we are at your disposal for all kinds of noise measurements.
