Pursuing the path of excellence

Acoem continues to lead in environmental monitoring technology, continuously enhancing its products to meet the evolving needs of its clientele. Our products are certified at the highest level by world-class laboratories and follow best practices as required by the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) in Australia as well as LNE and COFRAC in France.  These associations with industry-leading laboratories, across two continents, have enabled us to deliver the best noise-monitoring equipment to the world market.

“The accuracy of the data measured is a guarantee of excellence when we offer measurement tools. Fusion is a perfect example of this, and its accuracy is still recognised today by certifications from national and international laboratories-LNE, PTB for instance.

But above all, Fusion is proof that a precise measurement tool doesn’t have to be complicated to use. Just 3 buttons on the device allow us to carry out all kinds of acoustic measurements: on-the-fly measurements, building-specific measurements and short, medium and long-term monitoring with its connection to Cadence.”Charles-Etienne Lamort, Application & Solution specialist.

The Type Approval in Portugal represents another significant stride in Acoem’s journey to expand its presence in the European market. It also reaffirms Acoem’s dedication to providing instruments that contribute to a quieter and more sustainable world.
