You can feel the noise everywhere- in your residence or in the office. The cause of this pollution is several- construction work, road traffic, air traffic, rail traffic, manufacturing equipments, and several other industrial activities and human activities.

Absorptive and reflective types of barriers are used for the soundproofing. If the fence is made up of hard materials like masonry or concrete, then reflective technology works here in noise reduction. On the other side, barriers made from sound dampening content materials are based on the absorption technology, which reduces the noise by absorbing it.

You can also go for some ecological barrier also, which uses absorption technology to reduce the noise pollution. Plants are becoming popular as Environmental Barriers due to its environment-friendly behaviour. They can offer biodiversity support, water control, noise insulation and also have recyclable and economical in cost. When plants are used as barriers, then a support system is required to create a barrier wall. Coconut fibre and Green fleece fibre act as a soil which covers the support system.

Overall, you can install them without spending a much on these barriers, and they can provide noise protection for a longer time period and also increase the greenery by reducing the CO2 from the environment.
