Noise Requirements for Industrial Ventilation
A good working environment requires not only clean air and optimal temperature conditions but also effective solutions to limit noise.
In production halls, offices, and other work environments, it is essential to ensure that noise levels remain within prescribed limits to protect employee health and create a comfortable workplace. At the same time, businesses must consider their surroundings and ensure that operational noise does not disturb neighbors or the environment.
On this page, you will find a comprehensive overview of the noise requirements for ventilation and noise in the industrial sector, along with solutions to help you comply—both within your business and in relation to external environments.
Sound and Ventilation Systems
An effective ventilation system is vital for maintaining a healthy and pleasant working environment, but it must also be designed with a focus on minimizing noise. The industrial sector is subject to specific noise requirements for both the workplace and environmental noise pollution.
For ventilation, limits are set on how much noise the systems may generate. In workplaces such as offices or production halls, noise levels from ventilation systems should generally not exceed 30-40 dB(A), depending on the room’s use. This ensures that noise does not negatively impact productivity or employee well-being.
To Reduce Noise Levels, You Can:
- Install silencers on ventilation ducts.
- Place units in acoustically insulated technical rooms.
- Select low-noise components and design the system with proper dimensions.
Noise Requirements for Industrial Noise Levels
In the industrial sector, additional noise requirements are in place to protect employees from hearing damage and to minimize noise disturbances in the surroundings. The Danish Working Environment Authority’s regulations specify:
- A maximum daily noise level of 85 dB(A).
- A maximum peak noise level of 137 dB(C).
Additionally there are demands that requires businesses to ensure that noise levels in neighboring areas do not exceed specified limits, which can be as low as 35 dB(A) in residential areas at night.
Effective Solutions for Noise Reduction
We are experts in developing solutions to reduce noise in the industrial sector. These include:
- Noise insulation for machinery and equipment.
- Installation of noise barriers to dampen environmental noise.
- Optimization of production processes to reduce noise at the source.
We work closely with you to understand your unique needs and deliver solutions that meet all noise requirements and standards.

Ventilation is a key solution for companies that need to maintain production environments and keep turning profits. Knowledge and insight about your company are important to us when we design solutions.
In rooms with high temperatures, steam, or contamination, process extraction is the way to go. Dust, heat, or contamination can be extracted from the source and create a better environment for your employees.
In all production rooms, machines and other processes will release heat. To maintain a good working environment, it is necessary to cool these rooms down — our products will help with this.
A dry production environment is key to safety. Steam and condensation on your work site can cause big challenges and loss of production time. Our solutions are designed to keep work areas dry so your team can get back to work sooner.

Public guidelines determine how much noise is allowed in your work area, and some production units are too loud. Whether excess sound comes from processes in your production or ventilation units on the roof, we can reduce noise and make both employees and neighbors happy.
The smell of food can be wonderful, but if you are surrounded by it every day it might become too much. With different techniques, we can help you limit the odors created during production inside and outside of the working area.
Save unnecessary expenses by getting your current ventilation system checked. Usually, we can find ways for you to save electricity and money, by reusing the power already generated during production.
We have created our own products, that enables dehumidifying and cooling which will lead to a better working enviroment and increased production time.
