Description

METASoundBlok steel noise barrier's inner face of the panel (directed at the noise source) has holes over 35% of the surface area to provide noise absorption, while the outer face is a plain reflective panel. The panels are then installed into steel RSJ noise barrier posts in 500 mm increments to achieve the desired overall height.
