Jakoustic Environmental Noise Barriers - Far more than just a fence!
Jakoustic is certified to BS EN 1794-1 and BS EN 1793-1 / BS EN 1793-2
The revolutionary Jakoustic timber environmental noise barrier system is Jacksons answer to noise pollution, a growing problem in our densely populated modern world. We offer acoustic solutions for residential, commercial, industrial, railway and highway applications that can reduce noise levels by as much as 32 decibels in laboratory conditions, while maintaining an attractive and natural façade. For example for every 10dB Sound Reduction the human ear hears a halving of sound.
Commercial Acoustic Application
- Jakoustic reflective barrier meets most residential and industrial requirements.
- Jakoustic Plus absorptive barrier offers the extra performance of an additional layer of absorptive material contained within an acoustic membrane.
- Jakoustic Highway is specially designed to satisfy stringent highway standards, in heights up to 6m with steel posts. It is available as a reflective or absorptive system.
- Excellent security characteristics with a completely flat face (with no horizontal rails) which makes it difficult to climb and 34mm thick acoustic boards which are difficult to penetrate.

Jakoustic TV Ad: How to Make a Garden Gnome Very Happy
This TV ad illustrates the beauty of Jakoustic environmental noise barrier as a garden fence: an innovative fence, designed and proven to minimise the effects of noise pollution. The ad was well received, and the gnome became an overnight star advertising the sound resistant fencing.
Jakoustic Reflective Environmental Noise Barrier System
The Jakoustic Reflective system comprises of our unique timber “tuning fork” design posts and 125mm x 34mm boards featuring an interlocking vee couple with a tongue and groove. This special profile has been carefully developed to locate the boards in such a way that eliminates gaps that sound will easily travel through, even when boards shrink and expand with changes in the weather. The fence is finished with a capping and counter rail.
The timber posts used for most applications up to 4m high are of a unique 'tuning fork' design that clamps the boards to provide continuous sound insulation. For barrier heights 2m – 4m, the timber posts are reinforced with a steel spur at the base, powder coated black.
