Mecanum helps you meet noise exposure regulations and create safer, quieter work environments through advanced analysis, simulation, and tailored noise reduction strategies.
Meet the Noise Exposure Standards
Since June 16, 2023, Quebec’s updated Occupational Health and Safety Act (Decree 781-2021) has reduced the maximum noise exposure limit from 90 dBA to 85 dBA over 8 hours.
This mandates regular industrial noise assessments and the implementation of corrective actions to protect worker health.
Our Expertise in Industrial Noise Control
Source Analysis and Acoustic Imaging
We use acoustic cameras and sound power measurements to identify and quantify the loudest equipment and processes in your facility—enabling quick, effective interventions.
Acoustic Mapping and Simulations
We offer both in-situ measurements and digital acoustic simulations to:
✓ Visualize noise propagation
✓ Test noise control strategies virtually
✓ Optimize placement of absorbent materials, silencers, or barriers
This predictive approach ensures cost-effective solutions and avoids unnecessary investments.
Scalable Solutions Based on Best Practices
We design interventions tailored to your environment, focusing on:
✓ Source noise reduction
✓ Enclosures and acoustic treatments for machinery
✓ Reverberation control to reduce sound buildup in workspaces
✓ Personal protective equipment (PPE) as a last resort, not a default
A Strategic Investment in Health and Compliance
Reducing occupational noise exposure improves worker safety, reduces fatigue, and enhances productivity. Mecanum delivers actionable strategies aligned with evolving legislation and sound engineering practice through.
✓ Deep knowledge of industrial noise regulations and acoustic compliance
✓ State-of-the-art tools: acoustic imaging, mapping, and 3D simulations
