G’s Growers Factory
The problem: The workers at this vegetable factory in Cambridgshire were being exposed to high levels of industrial noise that is to be expected in a factory environment. The design of the factory, however, was not conducive to absorbing, or at least mitigating the concentrated levels of high decibel noise emitted by the equipment in the factory.
Our solution
The factory needed a significant amount of sound absorption on its surfaces to mop up the high levels of noise generated by machinery, but to also cover most of the reflective surfaces in the space.
Considering the area was used for food production, hygiene was of foremost concern to G’s Growers. The acoustic solution had to be one that didn’t attract contaminants and that could be easily cleaned with disinfecting chemicals. Resonics installed a patterned grid of Hygiene Foodtec Wall C3 panels, designed specifically for use in the food and beverage industries, restaurants and catering kitchens.
The Outcome
Feedback from factory workers is that the space is now far more comfortable to work in.
The Class A absorptive capabilities of the panels has allowed immediate mechanical noise to be diffused almost immediately. Additional noise is no longer projected to nearby reverberant surfaces due to the installation of sound absorbing panels on adjacent surfaces.
