About Us

Since environmental noise can be an important issue, noise assessment is required to progress through the planning, construction, operational and decommissioning stages of a project. We are experts in assessing and mitigating environmental and underwater noise working across business and industry including housing, transport, infrastructure, mining, data centres, renewable energy projects and manufacturing and industrial facilities.

Mike Fraser, our director, has over 35 years’ experience in environmental noise and vibration assessment and is a member of the Institute of Acoustics. He has worked on some of the highest profile projects (including nationally significant projects) and can support your project locally, across the UK or internationally.

What We Do

We provide expert guidance on noise, to businesses throughout the project lifecycle, including assessments and mitigation strategies.

We also accurately and impartially review third-party noise studies to help business understand noise issues and mitigation strategies more deeply to enable them to take better, more informed decisions.

Why Chose AIR

Expert guidance in environmental and occupational acoustics.

We will be your environmental and occupational noise partner and provide advice at each stage of a project to identify noise impacts early so you can amend proposed designs to mitigate environmental noise, wherever possible, and avoid expensive and time-consuming planning objections or non-compliances.

We also make sure we understand changes in noise regulation and guidance and ensure we use the latest noise assessment methodologies to ensure any changes that might come into force over the timescale of a project are understood and ‘built in’ to the approach.

Contact us to discuss how we may be able to work with you to successful deliver your planning or operational project.

“…can I take this opportunity to say what a pleasure it was working with you at the inquiry. I thought you handled the objectors with both tact and skill whilst keeping at all times the CR case in the forefront of the Inspector’s mind; a very professional performance if I may say so.”
