EchoGroove Lite Acoustic Fencing is part of First Fence's growing timber acoustic fencing product line. This style of fencing provides a stylish and efficient solution for reducing noise around homes, schools, and businesses. Designed to look great while performing effectively, it helps shield against sound from traffic, railways, and nearby industrial sites. Unlike other acoustic fencing from First Fence, this type is designed for residential properties.
EchoGroove Lite wooden panels comes as a ready-assembled panel measuring 1.8m in width and is available in 1.5m, 1.8m, 2.0m and 2.4m height options. Each Acoustic Fence panel is built from precision-cut timber boards with cover strips, designed to reflect sound and minimise noise pollution. The interlocking tongue-and-groove system securely holds the horizontal boards in place, creating a seamless fit with no gaps to maximise sound-blocking performance. Each panel has a built-in timber gravel board designed to be in contact with the ground.
The EchoGroove Lite panels are manufactured from pine boards supplied from FSC-certified sources, ensuring responsible forestry management. Each board is treated with TANALITH® preservative under UC4 classification, offering the highest level of protection for timber in contact with the ground. This treatment defends against fungal decay, insect attack, and rot, helping the panels withstand the challenges of outdoor exposure.
The natural colour of the treated timber is a soft green, which weathers attractively over time. For those seeking a customised finish, the noise reduction fence panels can also be painted or stained with a breathable coating to suit the surrounding landscape or to match existing fencing.
Tested by Salford University, our EchoAbsorb Acoustic Fencing meets all relevant Highways England standards, including BS EN 1793 for noise reduction. It also complies with BS EN 1794-1 and BS EN 1794-2, which are part of the Highways Sector Scheme 2C for prefabricated environmental barriers.
Please note: Dig-in posts are highly recommended to ensure a strong and secure installation. This system can be used with timber, steel or DuraPosts.
