Tyred out with traffic noise? Rubber barriers are the key in erasing noise pollution.
February 7 2012
Case Study
The teetering towers of discarded, worn-out tyres historically seen stacked up by the motorway may soon be a thing of the past.
Innovative companies such as Eco-Blok Europe Limited have found a way of transforming them into a creative new defense barrier against traffic noise.
The dense rubber compound, if shaped, positioned and erected correctly – enter the specialist skills of Red Acoustics Limited – can significantly reduce noise disturbance created by our busy highways and motorways.
Red, recently commissioned by Eco-Blok Europe, is currently working closely with the manufacturing team and US company South Bend Modern Molding Inc. on reducing the noise pollution created by the well-used highways of America.
The potential versatility of the barrier means it can be applied to many sources of modern noise – traffic, railways, airports, industrial areas. In an increasing culture stretching worldwide that depends so heavily on the car, travel and industry, the positive impact on the environment through reducing noise pollution is obvious.
Laboratory tests undertaken in the USA coupled with our remote modelling systems allow us to analyse any location worldwide without having to visit site, reducing air miles, saving time and money.
A positive side-effect of the process means the difficult disposal problem of rubber car and aircraft tyres – previously a headache in creating pollution of its own – is solved. What helps to create the noise will finally become a barrier against it – the irony isn’t lost!
Who’s a CleVA clogs then? We think we are…

We’re just a bit pleased with ourselves. Here at Red we recognise that understanding data can be tricky. We have been working hard to find ways to help you see what we hear – and we know we’ve cracked it.
We are using a new way to deliver data in an accessible format that allows you to see the same as us – an instant, clear, visual acoustic image of how your design is performing.
CleVA (Clear Visual Acoustics) allows us to see areas of concern immediately – and areas of success. Colour allows us to screen share your designs and to discuss issues at any stage of development without the delay of arranging a meeting.
You can see what we mean – and now see what we hear.
From initial design, through planning, to construction and potential environmental impact, the benefits are clear – time is saved, money is saved and most important to us, you are happy.
So you can see why we’re pleased with ourselves.
CleVA, isn’t it?
Just a taste of what CleVA can do; to find out more about how we can help you at any stage of your project contact us.
