Custom acoustic enclosures for industrial machinery and equipment

An acoustic enclosure (or acoustic cabinet) is an insulating device that partially or completely surrounds a machine to attenuate its sound emissions.
It is generally composed of absorbent panels, a metallic structure, technical doors, and access hatches for maintenance.

Acoustic enclosures are used in many sectors:
industry, ventilation, energy, air treatment, machine tools, generator sets, etc.
Their objective: to reduce noise pollution at the source while ensuring the safety and performance of the equipment.

Why choose an ECIB acoustic enclosure?

For over 30 years, ECIB has been designing custom industrial acoustic solutions.
Our design office supports each client from design to installation, ensuring a guaranteed and lasting result.

Our strengths:

• Custom manufacturing: each enclosure is adapted to your dimensions, constraints, and environments.

• High-performance materials: sandwich panels, rock wool, galvanized structure, anti-corrosion coatings.

• High acoustic performance: up to –30 dB(A) depending on the configuration.

• French manufacturing: design and production carried out in our workshops in France.

• Simplified maintenance: optimized access, integrated ventilation, inspection hatches.

Thanks to this personalized approach, ECIB meets the specific needs of each industrial site.

Different types of acoustic enclosures

Our solutions adapt to all types of equipment:

Acoustic enclosure for fan or air extractor

Ideal for reducing noise emissions in air handling units or industrial ventilation systems.

Acoustic enclosure for motor or compressor

Designed to attenuate the mechanical and vibrational noise of thermal engines, generator sets, or air compressors.

Acoustic enclosure for machine tools

Specifically developed for production lines, presses, and noisy mechanical equipment.

Each enclosure can be delivered pre-assembled or as a modular kit, with options for ventilation, sound traps, lighting, and access hatches.

Acoustic enclosure vs. other noise treatment solutions

To choose the most suitable solution for your environment, here is a comparison between acoustic enclosures and other industrial noise reduction devices:

Acoustic solution	Main Objective	Benefits	Limitations / Disadvantages
Acoustic Hood	Directly enclose the machine to attenuate noise at the source	High noise reduction, customization, complete technical integration	Requires custom design and sufficient space
Acoustic partitions	Separate or compartmentalize noisy areas	Quick installation, modular, repositionable	Less effective if the source is very noisy
Acoustic containers	Completely isolate equipment or a process	Overall protection, transportable, very high performance	More costly and bulky
Acoustic Screens	Limit noise propagation to a specific area	Effective for outdoor installations (roads, factories, construction sites)	Less suitable for a single point source

💬 At ECIB, we design and install all these solutions, but custom acoustic enclosures remain the most effective method when the sound source is clearly identified.

Advantages of our industrial acoustic enclosures

• Noise reduction of up to 30 dB(A) depending on the configuration

• Regulatory compliance with workplace noise standards (Directive 2003/10/EC)

• Improved operator comfort and quality of the working environment

• Total customization: colors, thicknesses, access, ventilation, etc.

• Durability and resistance thanks to robust and recyclable materials

Our acoustic enclosures contribute to better energy efficiency by maintaining controlled temperatures and appropriate air circulation.

ECIB Achievements and Case Studies

We have already completed hundreds of industrial acoustic enclosure projects in France and internationally.
Example:

Industrial Fans – Petrochemical Site (Lyon)
Installation of custom acoustic enclosures achieving a measured attenuation of 27 dB(A).
Result: compliance achieved and improved acoustic comfort for the teams.
