High-performance acoustic barriers for manufacturing, logistics and heavy industry. Air reduces boundary noise, improves compliance, and delivers durable, low-maintenance screening that stands up to tough environments.
Air is a modular acoustic barrier system for industrial projects where managing boundary noise, protecting workers, and maintaining compliance are critical. Built from 99% recycled polymers and tested to BS EN standards, it's engineered as an environmental noise barrier that reduces noise impact while keeping installation straightforward and efficient.
Panels slot together for rapid assembly around live industrial sites. The durable surface resists weathering, impact and chemical exposure, reducing maintenance requirements and ensuring consistent long-term performance.
Industrial sites need environmental noise barriers that can cope with plant noise, weather exposure and compliance scrutiny. Air is designed to control boundary noise without creating a high-maintenance asset.
Certified acoustic performance is paired with durable polymer cassettes for exposed industrial environments.
Identify dominant plant, loading and process noise sources that affect the site boundary.
Specify reflective or absorptive faces to reduce off-site impact where it matters most.
Use polymer cassettes designed for moisture, salt spray and chemical exposure.
Support permits, procurement and stakeholder reviews with tested acoustic data.
Reduce noise impacts, maintain compliance and keep operations moving. Air provides reliable boundary screening for manufacturing, logistics and heavy industry, installing quickly and performing for decades.
Manufacturing lines, loading bays and logistics hubs often create noise that disrupts nearby communities and businesses.
Managing noise helps sites meet regulations, avoid complaints, and maintain positive relationships with neighbours and regulators.
Modular panels slot together quickly around live industrial sites, providing reliable acoustic control with minimal disruption.
Screening that reassures communities, supports compliance, and delivers durable infrastructure designed for decades of service.
For industrial teams, the practical gains are boundary noise control, certified acoustic performance, robust materials and lower maintenance exposure.
Quick slot panels enable fast builds around live sites with minimal disruption to production or logistics operations.
Independently tested to BS EN 1793 / 1794 for proven absorption and insulation in industrial environments.
Engineered to withstand weather, impact and chemical exposure for a service life of up to 40 years.
Recycled PVC housings with mineral wool infill lower whole-life carbon and support ESG commitments.
Configurable layouts, heights and returns to suit factories, warehouses, logistics hubs and site expansions.
Clean, consistent lines that reduce visual impact and help maintain positive neighbour relations.
Timber barriers typically require replacement on a roughly 10-year cycle. Air is designed for up to 40 years of service, reducing return visits, disruption, waste and whole-life cost.
Air is specified once for the full 40-year design horizon. Timber typically returns to site every decade.
Fewer closures, fewer deliveries and fewer work windows reduce disruption to communities and operations.
Durability and modular cassette replacement reduce the material churn associated with repeated barrier renewal.
BS EN acoustic values and UKCA-ready documentation help project teams defend the whole-life choice.
Air is engineered for proven acoustic performance and long-term durability. Each cassette is built with recycled PVC housings and delivers a 40-year design life. The Absorptive variant incorporates a natural mineral-wool core for enhanced sound absorption, while the Reflective variant delivers high airborne insulation through a solid cassette structure. Tested to BS EN 1793-1 and -2, Air achieves DLα = 8 dB (sound absorption) and DLR = 28–29 dB (airborne insulation). The quick-slot cassette system enables rapid installation with minimal plant use, improving on-site safety and efficiency.
Air is designed for resilience and sustainability. The cassettes are weather-resistant, non-corrosive and maintenance-free, performing reliably in demanding environments. At end of life, the mineral wool and PVC can be separated, with the PVC granulated for reuse in new cassettes - supporting zero waste to landfill. Verified to BS EN 1793 / 1794, Air delivers a dependable, low-impact acoustic barrier for highways, rail, utilities and industrial projects.

Certified sound absorption to BS EN 1793-1, with airborne insulation of DLR 28-29 dB to BS EN 1793-2.
Weather-resistant, non-corrosive cassettes designed to reduce maintenance and replacement cycles.
Recovered polymer housings support lower-impact infrastructure and end-of-life material recovery.
A simple promise: materials stay in use. From the very first extrusion to decades of reliable service, every Air barrier is designed to deliver both acoustic performance and long-term sustainability. The system minimises waste during manufacture, uses up to 99% recycled PVC, and is supported by a circular end-of-life programme that ensures each component is recovered, reprocessed and made ready for its next installation. This commitment to performance and reuse supports lower-waste noise control infrastructure.
Explore the most common questions on Air for industrial projects. For tailored advice on your site, our expert team is here to help.
Certified to BS EN 1793: DLα = 8 dB absorption, DLR = 28–29 dB insulation. Actual site performance depends on barrier height, site layout, and surrounding conditions.
Absorptive reduces reflected noise; Reflective deflects sound. Selection depends on factory layout, yard geometry, and proximity to neighbours.
Click-and-lock panels install rapidly with minimal disruption to production or logistics operations. Actual rates depend on access, safety protocols, and shift duration.
