Sound barrier walls fall in one of two categories: reflective and absorptive.
Let's compare reflective and absorptive to get a better understanding.
Barriers without any added absorptive treatment or design, such as block, concrete, wood or metal, are considered reflective. This means, in the case of highway applications for example, that sound energy actually bounces from one side of the roadway to the other. Because there are often reflective barriers on both sides of the road, reflective noise reverberates between the barriers and the vehicles, pouring out into the adjacent neighborhoods. This reflective phenomenon can actually increase overall noise levels to the affected residences.
Absorptive barriers, on the other hand, don't reflect sound. In fact, installing a fully-absorptive barrier such as Soundfighter's LSE system will eliminate the risk and problems of reflective noise altogether in any applicaiton.
Truly effective noise attenuation requires the use of sound-absorptive treatments, and no topical or textural treatments applied to reflective materials will ever compare to the sound absorption qualities of the Sound Fighter LSE Barrier System. Used in a wide variety of applications ranging from highways and airports to loading docks and schools, the LSE System is the ideal solution for virtually any outdoor noise mitigation requirement.
Let Sound Fighters help you overcome your noise problems with their 100% absorptive LSE Noise Barrier System.
