Coupland Bell provides
acoustics and dynamics consultancy for a variety of commercial and industrial
projects. We specialise in industrial power projects and gas
turbines, offering a complete design service, to ensure contract and planning
limits are met.
Our service may

We have unique expertise in measuring noise in hot ducts, including engine
exhausts.
We also provide general noise and vibration consultancy, helping our clients
build equipment as cheaply and effectively as possible while still meeting
stringent acoustic requirements.
Our experience in marine technology allows us to apply our noise and vibration
