Tailored Noise Solutions
Our acoustic screens serve as an ideal solution for reducing sound transmission and absorbing noise from externally mounted plant items where high levels of airflow are required. Our acoustic plant screens are developed to address a variety of noise problems across multiple industries, from power generation to chillers and air-source heat pumps. We collaborate closely with clients, including contractors and developers, to provide tailored acoustic screen solutions that meet the most challenging noise reduction requirements while remaining cost-effective.
Get in touchConstruction and Design
Wakefield Acoustics’ premium acoustic plant screens are meticulously designed to suit specific applications, sizes, and site conditions. Our construction options range from pre-assembled modular builds for quick deployment to site-built panel screens with integrated support steelwork, allowing for flexibility and adaptability on any project. Each screen is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring it meets both functional and aesthetic demands. Please refer to below for details of optional features of our screens. Additional information is available in the downloadable product catalogue.
Our acoustic screens are particularly effective in reducing noise from mechanical plant equipment, providing a barrier between noisy operating areas and noise-sensitive locations. This is essential for creating a more comfortable working environment, protecting employees and surrounding communities from excessive sound levels.
Independent Testing and Compliance
Acoustic panels used in the construction of noise barriers have undergone rigorous independent testing in accordance with BS EN ISO 10140-2:2010, the international standard for measuring airborne sound insulation of building elements. Screens heights are determined by detailed acoustic analysis, in order to ensure project acoustic requirements are achieved
Key optional features
To enhance the functionality of our acoustic screens, we offer a variety of optional features tailored to your needs. Such features can include various paint finishes for corrosion protection and aesthetics, hinged and lift-off access panels, glazed viewing panels, and access doors for general maintenance.
Where plant ventilation is required, plant screens can also be constructed using our range of acoustic louvres, providing acoustic protection whilst permitting airflow.

Do acoustic plant screens work?
Acoustic plant screens help prevent noise levels from being disruptive to nearby noise sensitive properties through preventing direct transmission of equipment noise, and reducing reflective noise within a plant area, or from an entire site
What is an acoustic plan screen?
Acoustic plant screens reduce noise levels from loud environments especially mechanical plant and equipment, from noise sensitive areas -usually residential locations.
How thick are acoustic plant screens?
Acoustic plant screens are manufactured to prevent loud noise levels from industrial machinery. Tailored to each specification, acoustic screens provide a perfect shield between loud operating areas and noise sensitive areas
Why use acoustic plant screens?
Acoustic plant screens absorb and reduce sound, therefore improving the quality of life for nearby noise sensitive receptors
What acoustic performance can acoustic plant screens achieve?
Typically acoustic plant screens can provide up to 15dB of noise reduction. The performance of an acoustic screen is usually dictated by a combination of the height of the barrier and the frequency content of the source noise
Where are acoustic plant screens commonly used?
Acoustic plant screens are commonly used to separate and reduce noise from industrial facilities from affecting residential areas
