Absorptive barriers — designed to absorb sound waves. This causes the sound wave to be largely stopped in the panel. This happens thanks to sound insulation spacers used inside the panel.
Basic types of noise barriers include:
- Aluminium noise barriers – rom the outside made of profiled aluminium sheet metal, perforated from one side or two sides, filled with mineral wool with appropriate thickness and density.
- Green Wall noise barriers – wool-filled steel grating, additionally planted with vegetation for enhanced outer aesthetics.
- Individual types of wooden noise barriers or steel, plastic, etc. panels absorb noise to the smallest extent.
