SOUND SOLUTION FROM PREMIER FOREST PRODUCTS AS THEY LAUNCH NEW ACOUSTIC FENCE PANELS

Leading UK timber specialist Premier Forest Products has further expanded its product offering with the launch of a new range of acoustic fence panels.

Manufactured in the UK, the fence panels, which have been tested and rated to achieve a noise reduction of 26 decibels (dB), are suitable for residential, commercial, and public sector properties.

The panels are designed and engineered to reflect sound from motorways, roads, railways, and other noisy environments, significantly reducing the impact of noise pollution.

Measuring from 1.8m high, the panels are anti-climb to deter intruders and provide an extra level of privacy for properties. The robust panels feature horizontal tongue and groove ‘V’ joint boards, machined from premium-quality, joinery-grade Scandinavian redwood. The boards are interlocked and bonded with an acoustic sealant for enhanced acoustic performance.

For versatility, Premier offers two types of acoustic panels for different applications and project sizes:

•Duchy Acoustic Fence – ideal for homeowners looking for an acoustic solution.

•Premier Reflect Acoustic Barrier – suited for large-scale projects where flexibility with installation is needed. These wider panels cover a greater area for a faster fit and can be mixed and matched by size, stackable up to a height of 5m.

Dave Say, UK Softwood Products Commercial Manager, explained:

“Made from responsibly sourced, certified timber, these barriers are the ideal solution for a wide range of scenarios, from houses near railway lines to schools hoping to minimise their impact on the local community. Naturally, our solutions meet the specifications required for acoustic barriers, but we really listened to our customers when developing the range. We offer a choice of sizes for versatility during installation, and we hope these barriers will become the go-to solution for customers prioritising noise reduction.”

Premier Forest’s acoustic fence solutions are manufactured in accordance with BS1793 and are fully pressure treated to NHSS4 (National Highways Treatment Specification). The robust panels have a desired service life of 15 years, out of ground contact.

Premier Forest Products is a vertically integrated timber operation engaged in the importation, processing, merchanting, and wholesale distribution of timber and timber products from its multiple sites across the UK.
