Irish-owned acoustics specialist Wave Dynamics has officially rounded out its offering by launching its new Environmental Services, Monitoring and Audio-Visual Design options for clients

The announcement came at a special event in the Leinster Hotel, Dublin on September 24. Attended by the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage James Browne, as well as clients, partners and the Wave Dynamics team, the new departure marks a major milestone for the company, whose services are now as comprehensive as its much bigger competitors.

Wave Dynamics’ new environmental services will see it providing specialist assessments and plans for planning applications, EIA projects and construction sites; its monitoring services will entail live monitoring on construction, infrastructure and industrial sites; and its audio-visual design will include the independent design and specification of sound, display and conferencing systems.

Founded in 2022 by James Cousins and Sean Rocks, Wave Dynamics has a staff of 28, and offices in Gorey, Dublin, Cork, Belfast and London. It specialises in eight key areas: acoustics, audio-visual design, monitoring, air quality and odour, climate and microclimate, lighting and daylighting, Environmental Impact Assessment Reports and planning services, and construction/waste. Its clients are from a wide range of sectors, and it works on projects across Ireland, the UK and Europe, from inception and planning stages right through to completion.

The move will enable the progressive young company to compete on a more equal footing with other, larger firms working in this space, as it now ticks all the boxes for clients. The fact that it is Irish-owned and comparatively small adds to its appeal, with clients appreciating the relative lack of red tape and speedier turnaround times.

According to the Local Enterprise Office in Wexford, the launch of these new services is “an excellent example of a Wexford enterprise identifying new opportunities, investing in expertise, and developing services that will support businesses and communities in addressing environmental and sustainability challenges”.
