Acoustical Products Made in USA.
Construction sites are some of the loudest environments in urban and commercial areas. Equipment such as jackhammers, concrete saws, demolition machinery, and drilling tools can produce sound levels between 90–100 dB(A) during active operations. When construction projects occur near office buildings, hospitals, or residential neighborhoods, the noise can disrupt daily activities for people nearby.
In many cases, construction projects last for weeks or even months. During that time, surrounding businesses may struggle to maintain productivity due to constant equipment noise. Employees working in nearby offices may find it difficult to focus or hold meetings while demolition equipment operates just outside their windows.
Construction noise also presents challenges in sensitive environments such as hospitals or educational facilities. Excessive sound levels can interfere with patient recovery or classroom instruction. In addition to these disruptions, contractors must also consider OSHA noise exposure regulations, which require employers to implement protective measures when workers are exposed to noise levels above 85 dB(A) over an 8-hour time-weighted average.
The MassiCore® Vinyl Fence Acoustic Barrier System provides an effective solution for controlling construction noise at the site perimeter. By installing a temporary vinyl fence acoustic barrier around the construction area, contractors can block much of the airborne noise produced by heavy equipment. The dense barrier material prevents sound waves from spreading into neighboring properties.
With MassiCore® Vinyl Fence Acoustic Barrier Systems, noise reaching surrounding areas can often be reduced from 95–100 dB(A) to approximately 70–75 dB(A). This reduction helps nearby businesses continue operating while construction projects proceed more responsibly.
