Curtain Enclosures

IES 2000’s acoustical curtains are used to decrease the reflection of sound waves within a piece of equipment, a room, or a building. Our curtains provide control for a whole host of outdoor applications as well. A variety of facings are available including our standard industrial grade vinyl facing, and a silicone facing for high temperature or outdoor applications. Curtain panels are typically constructed with grommets across the top.

Acoustic Outdoor Barrier Walls

Ground Mounted or Rooftop Applications. For any place noise is a problem, Acousti-Barrier is the solution.

  • HVAC Mechanical Equipment
  • Salvage Yards
  • Loading Docks
  • Power Plants
  • Rail Yards
  • Highways
  • Generators
  • Carwashes
  • Transformers
  • Manufacturing Facilities

Barrier Walls are normally used to place a sound barrier between a noise source and a target population. This barrier creates a “sound shadow” zone of quiet that can be tailored to cover almost any size area either indoors or out. When you contact IES-2000, Inc., we work with you from beginning to end. Our goal isn’t to sell you equipment; it’s to create a solution for your particular problem. We’ll help design your barrier from the ground up to protect your particular environment at the lowest cost possible. Whether you need to protect an entire neighborhood or just a portion of one building, IES-2000, Inc. has a solution for you. Regardless of the size of your job, we have the right mix of one-sided or two-sided, sound absorbing or reflecting materials, to reduce noise levels without breaking your budget. Absorptive noise control barriers provide maximum noise reduction with lightweight modular panels and/or louvers. The noise barrier system is easy to install and easy to relocate. Panels and louvers are constructed of galvanized steel or aluminum and finish painted in a weather resistant polyester powder coating. The finish is also graffiti resistant and cleanable. An existing wall can be lined with Acousti – Barrier sound-absorbing cladding panels as an effective, cost-efficient method of reducing reflected sound. Our design services include layout, structural steel support framework, foundation design (for ground level barriers), access doors and certified calculations including P.E. or S.E. stamp. Perfect for new construction or retrofit to an existing structure. Download Product Brochure

Acoustic Curtains - Heavy Duty Outdoor Sound Curtains

Our Outdoor Sound Curtains can be used for both active Construction Sites and for many different Community Noise situations. They can be used in conjunction with a chain link fence to surround a noisy area or to line a noisy building, and at IES-2000, we can design a solution to meet your design specifications. The barrier-backed configuration offers the benefits of both sound absorption and noise barrier products in one on outdoor applications. A cost saving non-reinforced 1-LB psf loaded vinyl barrier is bonded to a 2″ thick exterior grade vinyl-coated-polyester faced quilted fiberglass absorber. These economic modular sound curtains are typically constructed with grommets across the top and bottom and exterior grade Velcro seals along the vertical edges.

Construction Site Products:

Industrial composite products can be used to reduce the noise transmitting from the construction site to surrounding areas. They can be used in conjunction with pre-cast concrete highway barriers, hung from an overhead highway or supplied with a “hoistable” frame to quiet jack hammer operations. Alternately, Industrial Quilted Fiberglass Absorbers can be attached to temporary plywood walls.

Community Noise Projects:

Industrial noise control products have been used to reduce community noise from gas compressor stations, truck distribution centers, skateboard parks, amphitheaters, even commercial and residential air conditioners. IES-2000 has a full line of products that are designed to withstand the effect of UV rays to offer long term, outdoor noise control solutions.
