Noise Barriers

The new lightweight transparent solution, Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) sheets offer protection against involuntary breakage and wilfull destruction. The sheets are virtually unbreakable and do not splinter.

Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) is a product specially developed for sound wall applications that meet the acoustic requirements for noise reduction, the impact requirements from bridges and pedestrian overpasses being virtually unbreakable, and fire requirements with self-extinguishing properties.

The growing traffic on motorways and railways generates an increase in the noise affecting humans and animals. To protect the environment from the impact of continuously increasing noise, Exolon® is becoming more often the material of choice for transparent noise protection barriers along highly frequented motorways, expressways and railways. The Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) solid polycarbonate sheets do more than just reduce the noise level. They resist weathering (with up to a 50 year service life), debris impact from collision as well as vandalism even in minus temperatures. And because they are transparent, they fit seamlessly into their surroundings. To ensure the well-being not only of the residents but also of birds, the sheets also feature highly effective protection against bird collisions.

For high traffic areas, Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) BF AR is finished with an abrasion-resistant anti-graffiti coating.

Proven quality

Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) is a product specially developed for soundwall applications. Noise protection barriers from Exolon® meet the sound technical requirements for noise reduction and the demands of road safety, stability such as form and ageing stability.

At its best due to easy manufacturing

Exolon® Silent Sound (formerly Makrolon® Silent Sound) can be easily manufactured, the solid sheets are made flat but can be bent cold. There are virtually no limits to its design possibilities when you thermoform the sheets. The sheets weigh far less than conventional building materials, and this makes it particularly ideal for use on bridges. You use the sheets quickly and safely without any additional structures or equipment.
