Quick Deployment

When working to strict schedules and budgets time is of the essence. Echo Barrier’s temporary acoustic solutions can be rolled out 400% faster than alternatives, using 50% less labour. With enhanced design features and fittings that make assembling and hanging so easy just one labourer can install our solutions in no time. Our barriers can be rolled up too, making transportation, storage, and manual handling more efficient.

Waterproof

Echo Barrier sound curtains are 100% weatherproof to IPX6, IPX9 and BS 7837:1996 Our products maintain optimum sound absorption even in the dampest of weather. Our barriers are able to withstand rigorous maintenance, and will not be damaged by cleaning with jet-wash even at high levels of psi. Alternative manufacturers only waterproof one side, and use absorbent materials such as rock-wool, which diminishes in performance in wet conditions.

As innovators in acoustics manufacturing we craft high spec materials that pair exceptional performance with low weight.
