HERMEQ’s scaffolding acoustic barriers are the only UK-certified solution under BS7955 regulations. Manufactured in the UK, these 2100mm x 2100mm panels reduce site noise through advanced absorption and attenuation. Quick to install using cable or bungee ties, they’re ideal for scaffolding-based acoustic noise barrier solutions with fire ratings and branding options.
The acoustic barriers from HERMEQ are engineered to reduce and absorb environmental noise around scaffolding setups. Supplied as 2100mm x 2100mm panels, these high-performance blankets are certified to BS EN ISO 717-1:1997, BS EN ISO 345:2003, EN ISO 11654:1997 and uniquely conform to BS7955 UK scaffold legislation — a certification no other acoustic fencing product offers in the UK market.
Installation is fast and hassle-free with reinforced eyelets compatible with bungee ties or heavy-duty cable ties. These acoustic noise barrier panels are rigorously tested for real-world conditions, ensuring attenuation at high frequencies (up to 24 dB at 5000Hz) and robust absorption characteristics.
- Certified for UK scaffolding – Fully compliant with BS7955, the only solution of its kind on the market.
