Still contributing to the security of a premises, this soundproof fencing can help to limit noise while contributing to the ambience of a site.
In this blog, we’ll talk through the timber acoustic fencing available and how it might benefit your project.
Timber acoustic fencing, also known as sound barriers, acoustic barriers and sound-proof fencing, is a specially designed type of fencing to ease noise pollution, while offering an aesthetically pleasing look.
It is made from solid timber panels and uses specialist design features to reduce noise pollution coming from traffic, neighbouring properties, or other sources.
Timber acoustic fencing consists of carefully selected timber panels which are engineered to deflect and absorb sound waves. Unlike traditional timber fencing which is primarily purchased as a boundary fencing system.
First Fence timber acoustic barriers are manufactured from quality Tanalised, pressure treated timber from a reputable FSC certified UK sawmill. The timber is surface incised and this is important for achieving the best preservative protection for ground contact timber.
These sound barriers have been independently tested by Salford University to Highways England requirements – BS EN 1793 Road Traffic Noise Reducing Devices.
Testing and compliant to BS EN 1794-1 and BS EN 1794-2, they comply with Highways Sector Scheme 2C for the prefabrication of environmental barriers.
Timber acoustic fencing can be used in a variety of settings, including;
Acoustic fencing represents a blend of function and aesthetics, offering an effective solution to noise pollution while still creating a natural visual look.
Sound barriers are an effective natural way to make a big difference in an urban environment, whether you want peace away from city noise or just a quieter outdoor area, timber acoustic fencing can help.
