If you’ve heard the difference, you know just how powerful our sound-absorptive noise barrier systems really are! But what makes it so effective?
How Sound Barrier Panels Are Made
Our proprietary barrier panel design, developed exclusively by Sound Fighter® Engineers, is uniquely designed and crafted to provide the world’s most effective absorption technology.
Soundproofing Panels
Our barriers are constructed from materials that are water-resistant, rust-proof, non-corrosive, and extremely durable in the harshest outdoor environments!
Since there is absolutely NO metal contained within the panel, the product will hold up to environments containing high-moisture and corrosives, without the need for ongoing painting and maintenance.
Sound Fighter® utilizes high-strength outer panel shell that offers excellent STC performance. Next, premium acoustic absorptive media is inserted to absorb unwanted noise by completely diffusing the sound waves.
The finished sound absorbing panels are independently self-draining and lock securely into place when stacked into the structural framework.
This combination of proprietary design and specially crafted materials makes the Sound Fighter® Absorptive Noise Barrier Systems among the highest performing absorptive barrier walls in the world today.
Engineering & Design
The Sound Fighter® Sound Barrier Panels Concept
Recognizing the need for a high-performance sound barrier system for their new Autobahn, German engineers designed our original LSE® System with the sole objective of absorbing and eliminating the most common frequencies of unwanted sound.
Everything – from the perforation density and shape, to the volume of the acoustical fill material inside the barrier – is precisely engineered to maximize the system’s attenuation performance. And it worked beautifully.
Thankfully, the physics of acoustics do not change with time, and our enhanced barrier designs remain the world’s preeminent absorptive panels designed four decades later.
Engineering
Our sound barriers have been extensively engineered to accommodate a wide range of factors including wind-loads up to 150+ mph and barrier heights to 50 feet.
When necessary, we can have the designs of our noise barriers certified and stamped in any State or location.
And when our Customer’s have special or unique challenges on new or retrofit barriers, SFS can custom-engineer our barriers to accommodate their application.
As a result, Sound Fighter® has the capabilities to deliver an engineered sound barrier for nearly any application anywhere in the world.
Design
Sound Fighter® has an in-house design & drafting team that have designed our proprietary noise barriers for some of the most unusual applications imaginable – from a retrofit barrier for an historic highway bridge to a lightweight rooftop enclosure for air conditioning noise reduction.
The cumulative talent and experience of our design & drafting staff is unmatched in the outdoor barrier business.
As a courtesy to our Customers, we provide detailed layout drawings to them during the initial planning stage, giving them a much better feel and understanding of what they’re getting with our sound barrier systems.
UV Stabilization and Color Enhancement are critical to the panel’s longevity and appearance, and Sound Fighter® uses the best available additives and coatings to ensure the sound barrier panels will not fade, oxidize, craze, crack or peel – resulting in a noise barrier that will last decades in the harshest outdoor environments.
Manufacturing & Assembly
Sound Fighter® Systems is the sole manufacturer of our absorptive noise barrier systems.
By maintaining control over the entire manufacturing process of our sound barrier walls, Sound Fighter® ensures the highest levels of quality and consistency that are so crucial for proper attenuation performance and Customer satisfaction.
Packing & Shipping
Once the Sound Fighter® staff reconfirms delivery location and times with the customer, all of the steel, drawings, noise barrier material, sound barrier walls, and related components for a project are carefully loaded onto trucks and sent to the customer.
