Acoustic Barriers

Every year Buffalo Fence installs miles of Acoustic Barriers reducing road noise on highways across the UK. Buffalo invented Acoustic Barriers for the Department of Transport when the M25 was still on the drawing board.

The Buffalo Acoustic Barrier is THE ORIGINAL and is widely acknowledged as the leader in this specialist field.

Our Acoustic Barriers have been much copied, but never equalled. 

Acoustic Barrier Performance

Tests carried out on live sites have proved that our Acoustic Barriers have effectively reduced noise by more than 50%.

Acoustic Barrier Innovation

This has arisen from developing our own designs, manufacturing, testing and erecting on sites with our own trained installation teams. These structures are built to a much higher standard than mere fencing (which to the layman they may resemble) and use much better quality materials to meet the necessary strength, longevity and acoustic requirements.

Buffalo have researched and developed
- ENDURO Acoustic Fencing, our new Noise Reduction Modular Fence System with many senior motorway  Acoustic Barrier features, and
- ENDURO Closeboarded Fencing the standard product for privacy and security, where noise is not an issue.
