Toyota Boshoku’s main plant in Turkey produces interior automobile parts — seats, door trim, instrument panels, air filters, and seat covers — across three production sites in Sakarya and Düzce. Operating since 2002 as a just-in-time facility, it produces over 280,000 vehicle sets per year, exported across Europe and Africa.
With heavy-duty machinery on the line, noise and worker health and safety sit high on the management agenda. To better understand and act on indoor noise levels, Toyota Boshoku engaged local partner Metapax to identify a reliable, affordable monitoring solution — and was introduced to Sonitus Systems, a Cognesense brand.
Metapax Akustik specialises in sustainable acoustic solutions, applying acoustic metamaterial technology to environmental, industrial, and urban noise problems. Metapax has partnered with Sonitus Systems, a Cognesense brand, since 2021 as its representative in Turkey.
One partner. Every obligation. Legacy meets future.
“Sonitus Systems has been a great addition to our current product range and consultancy offerings. Reliable plug & play equipment with easy operation delivering quality data to my clients across all sectors.”
— Onursal Önen, CEO Metapax
The Toyota Boshoku factory is a modern metal-parts production environment, with heavy-duty presses running continuously alongside manual workstations — driving workplace noise levels that affect staff wellbeing on the floor.
Factory management installed the AS180 Sonisens close to the heavy-duty press stations to continuously monitor and log noise levels. Live readings are shown to workers via a simple traffic-light display — green for good, red for high — giving the team immediate, plain-language awareness on the work floor.
