Echo Barrier products undergo thorough laboratory and field testing, to ensure that you get the best possible performance every time you use them.
Echo Barrior products are unrivalled at reducing sound pollution, but are light enough for one person to install them. Despite being thinner and lighter than our competitors’ products, our barriers are more effective.
Our products excel in the six areas most essential for noise reduction products:






The best way to understand how our temporary noise control barriers deliver market-leading performance at minimum weight is to take a look inside.

There are two key measurements to consider when testing an acoustic barrier’s performance:
By concentrating on one of these measures it is relatively easy for some barriers to perform well in the lab alone, but it is performance in the field that is vital.
Both in the lab and on worksites, Echo Barrier’s products achieve world-leading performance for both transmission loss and efficiency of sound absorption.
In some circumstances, Echo Barrier’s products perform better in the field than in a lab. The chart below shows the results of independent tests using a diesel-powered trenchless excavation drill.
When compared with their performance in the laboratory, Echo Barrier panels deployed on-site achieved an additional 5 dB in noise reduction at certain frequencies.
