Experts of optimal sound environments, Eckel Noise Control Technologies(Eckel Industries) has been at the forefront of acoustic analysis and design since 1952. Founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Eckel helped to create the world’s first Anechoic Chamber at Harvard University. Since then, the company has pioneered chamber design for use in product testing from cell phones to cars to jet engines helping engineers and manufacturers achieve exceptional quality standards.
Microsoft set the Guinness World Record for Quietest Place on Earth with an Eckel Anechoic Chamber. Microsoft contracted with Eckel to design and build the chamber. Installation began at Building 87 in May 2014, under the direction of Eckel’s installer, Viking Enterprises (Waterford, CT). Eckel completed the entire project in July 2014 (which also included constructing two smaller anechoic chambers).
Building on the science behind its Anechoic Chambers, Eckel set the standard for the design and manufacture of other types of noise control solutions. Audiometric Rooms & Studios create the ideal controlled environment for hearing testing, recording and other sound isolation applications. Acoustic Panels provide precise control of reverberation and background noise in any setting from auditoriums and gyms to concert halls and industrial facilities. Industrial Enclosures offer custom-engineered options for worksite noise isolation. Eckel's line of Voice Over Booths, Practice Rooms and Media Production Studios are the first choice of musicians, vocal artists, and producers.
No matter the acoustic challenge, Eckel has a sound solution.
