Industrial acoustic enclosures are specially designed structures or housings used to reduce noise produced by industrial equipment such as generators, compressors, pumps, or turbines. These enclosures are typically constructed from sound-absorbing and insulating materials to contain and dampen noise emissions. They help ensure compliance with occupational noise regulations, protect workers' hearing, and reduce noise pollution in surrounding areas.
The main types of industrial acoustic enclosures include portable acoustic enclosures, fixed acoustic enclosures, modular acoustic enclosures, and custom acoustic enclosures. Portable acoustic enclosures are movable noise control structures designed to lower sound levels from machinery or equipment, offering flexibility for temporary or changing work environments. These enclosures are made from materials such as steel, aluminum, composite materials, and others, and come in various sizes including small, medium, and large. They are used in applications such as industrial equipment, power generation, aerospace and defense, building and construction, and automotive, with key end-users in manufacturing, energy and power, oil and gas, construction, and more.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The swift increase in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly affecting the machinery sector by increasing costs for steel, hydraulic systems, and precision bearings critical components often imported from tariff-affected regions. Manufacturers of construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery now face squeezed margins, as many long-term contracts prevent immediate price adjustments. The uncertainty has also delayed investment in automation and smart machinery technologies, slowing productivity gains. To adapt, firms are accelerating local supplier development, redesigning products to use alternative materials, and leveraging predictive maintenance to extend equipment lifespans amid higher replacement costs.
The industrial acoustic enclosures market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides industrial acoustic enclosures market statistics, including the industrial acoustic enclosures industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the industrial acoustic enclosures market share, detailed industrial acoustic enclosures market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the industrial acoustic enclosures industry. This industrial acoustic enclosures market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The industries acoustic enclosures market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.55 billion in 2024 to $1.68 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the expansion of power generation facilities, rising manufacturing activity, development of oil and gas infrastructure, increased use of on-site power equipment, and greater awareness of occupational hearing loss.
The industries acoustic enclosures market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.27 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth expected in the forecast period is driven by the expansion of renewable energy installations, growth in data centers, development of the pharmaceutical sector, increased investment in smart factory infrastructure, and rising urbanization. Key trends anticipated during the forecast period include modular acoustic enclosure systems, integration of smart noise monitoring, advanced acoustic materials, rooftop ballast acoustic barrier systems, and the adoption of lightweight, eco-friendly materials.
The growth of manufacturing activities is anticipated to support the expansion of the industries acoustic enclosures market in the years ahead. Manufacturing involves transforming raw materials or components into finished products through processes that utilize labor, machinery, and various forms of processing. The increase in these activities is driven by rising industrial automation, which boosts production efficiency and overall output. Industries acoustic enclosures contribute to these environments by reducing noise levels, fostering safer workspaces, and ensuring adherence to noise regulations. They also help improve operational efficiency by reducing sound-related disruptions, enhancing employee productivity, and optimizing equipment performance. For example, in July 2025, Statistics Canada-a Canadian government statistical agency-reported that the manufacturing sector's capacity utilization rate (not seasonally adjusted) increased from 76.4% in April to 78.6% in May, reflecting heightened manufacturing output and improved operational performance. Therefore, the growth in manufacturing activities is contributing to the expansion of the industries acoustic enclosures market.
Leading companies in the industries acoustic enclosures market are developing advanced products, such as high-performance acoustic enclosures, to deliver improved sound control, energy efficiency, and environmental compliance. These enclosures are engineered using sophisticated soundproofing materials to provide effective noise attenuation for industrial machinery while meeting safety and regulatory standards. For instance, in April 2025, Mansfield Pollard & Co Ltd., a UK-based manufacturer of industrial acoustic enclosures, introduced the ALX Modular Aluminium Enclosure, a next-generation acoustic solution designed for use in sectors such as power generation and data centers. This new enclosure offers exceptional noise control in a lightweight yet durable aluminum structure that also maintains thermal efficiency. Its modular design supports easy installation and allows customization to suit different types of equipment setups, making it a flexible and effective solution for industrial noise reduction.
In May 2024, WB Power Services (WBPS), a UK-based provider of critical power solutions, acquired Hodgson Acoustics Company Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition was intended to enhance WBPS's capabilities in the industrial and power sectors by incorporating Hodgson's expertise in designing and manufacturing custom acoustic enclosures and noise control systems. Hodgson Acoustics Company Ltd. is a UK-based firm specializing in industrial acoustic enclosures and noise mitigation solutions.
