Noise often leads to conflicts. We advise you on noise issues, prepare customised expert reports and look for solutions to prevent noise emissions.

Environmental noise - we are the partner for quiet times.

Measure, calculate and reduce noise and vibrations.

Many people are exposed to noise and vibrations that are harmful to their health. These can lead to conflicts between those affected, the polluters and the authorities. It does not have to come to that.

Since the 1980s, we have gained a great deal of experience in assessing a wide variety of noise situations and offer solutions in the areas of road noise, railway noise, industrial and commercial noise, shooting noise and noise from construction sites. We specialise in the holistic assessment of the noise situation in polluted areas. Together with the public authorities and facility owners, we develop and plan individual measures such as noise barriers, noise-reducing road surfaces or soundproof windows.

In order to find the best solution for every noise and vibration problem, we have a wide range of options at our disposal. With our measuring instruments and our own noise calculation software, we are able to record every situation in the best possible way. We carry out noise and vibration monitoring, which prevents conflicts between plant operators and residents in a sustainable and proactive manner - for example at construction sites.

Acoustic specialist: between technology, communication and innovative solutions

Acoustic specialist: between technology, communication and innovative solutions

Working as an acoustics specialist requires more than just technical skills. It requires the ability to understand and analyze complex noise situations and to reconcile the concerns of those affected, noise-intensive activities and legal requirements. A noise professional is responsible for analyzing noise-related problems and finding innovative and balanced solutions. They have to juggle diverging interests and mediate between the various interest groups. In this blog, we find out more about this exciting profession with its diverse skills but also the corresponding challenges.

Noise and exceedances of permissible limits are highly relevant issues of great importance, especially when it comes to public health. In this context, the analysis of noise generated by the installation of outdoor heat pumps (HPs) in densely populated neighbourhoods is crucial. Fundamental questions arise such as "If all homeowners decide to install a heat pump, is there not a risk of exceeding the permissible limits in the neighbourhood?". Expertise is needed to answer these questions. G+P, an expert in noise protection, is your ideal partner.
