History

ACAD in its original form was founded in 1983 by Lennart Karlén as a company within acoustic product development. In 2003, Lennart and Anders Schönbeck started the consultancy part in its current form.

Lennart’s extensive experience of all types of acoustic issues and wide understanding of construction engineering has meant that ACAD has been able to expand quickly. Continued recruiting has today given us the position as Sweden’s largest independent acoustics consultant. In 2006, ACAD was transformed to allow for partnership.

Our acousticians have a consistently high level of education, PhDs and Masters of Engineering. We are committed to the effective dissemination of experience to ensure growth with uncompromising quality.
