The Overlooked Energy Lever in Buildings Buildings account for approximately 38% of total global energy consumption, with HVAC systems representing the dominant share of that demand (Ahmed et al., 2026). In commercial buildings, HVAC alone may consume up to 47% of total building energy use (Ahmed et al., 2026). Despite this substantial energy footprint, one operational factor […]

As February unfolds, the momentum at KGC continues to strengthen — driven by engineering expertise, design precision, and performance-led acoustic solutions. This month’s spotlight features a premium rooftop chiller acoustic solution combining acoustic louvers and metal barriers, alongside a custom fabric acoustic panel system that effectively controlled reverberation within a training room environment. In our […]
At Kinetics Group, we’ve always treated industrial noise as more than a “decibel problem.” Yes, noise can damage hearing — but in real factories, noise also drains focus, elevates tension, disrupts recovery, and quietly pushes people toward burnout. A recent manufacturing-industry study from Indonesia makes that message uncomfortably clear: workplace noise isn’t only an audiological […]
At Kinetics Group, we believe that effective noise control is not about blocking sound indiscriminately, but about managing it intelligently without compromising operational performance. This balance is particularly critical in industrial and building services environments, where equipment must continuously ventilate, cool, and operate while coexisting with people and sensitive urban surroundings. Industrial equipment such as dry […]
As summer sets in, we’re pleased to share the 75th edition of The Isolator Newsletter—a milestone in our mission to deliver pioneering noise and vibration control solutions across the region. In this edition, we spotlight key project successes, a technical discussion on the Superiority of SHAA and SHAB Vibration Isolation Hangers, and our sleek, high-performance […]
The operation of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems generates varying degrees of noise and vibration, which, if left untreated, can lead to significant damage to both equipment and building structures. More critically, it can create discomfort for occupants, undermining the very purpose of modern HVAC systems designed for comfort and efficiency. As a […]
