Acoustical Barriers
Our acoustical barriers utilize perforated steel panels filled with mineral rock wool to absorb and deflect sound. Engineered to meet FAA standards for airport applications, these systems reduce noise pollution while maintaining structural integrity against jet blast forces. The barriers combine 22-gauge steel faces with 16-gauge back trays for optimal sound transmission loss.
Jet Blast Deflectors
Custom-engineered jet blast deflectors protect airport infrastructure from high-velocity engine exhaust. Designed using site-specific parameters like aircraft thrust and wind speed, these systems create safer ground operations while incorporating acoustical attenuation features to minimize community noise impact.
Silent Screen Systems
The Silent Screen line features 12-inch wide metal panels with perforated faces and mineral wool fill for superior noise absorption. Available in galvanized, aluminum, or stainless steel, these systems achieve NRC ratings up to 1.05 and STC 35 performance while offering corrosion resistance in harsh environments.
High-Density Series
This product line combines 2-inch thick steel panels with high-density absorbent material for enhanced noise reduction. The system's 3/16-inch perforations allow sound wave penetration into the mineral wool fill, achieving optimal acoustic performance while maintaining structural durability in industrial settings.
Wall-Mounted Acoustics
The M-90 system provides wall-mounted noise control solutions with 24-inch wide panels designed for retrofit applications. This system addresses challenging acoustical issues in existing structures while maintaining a slim profile, achieving NRC ratings up to 1.10 for superior sound absorption performance.
