Every nation is investing its time and effort in addressing the risks associated with increasing pollution. The drastic climate change has pushed governments to design strategies that can help them fight pollutants. To achieve this goal, organizations release documentaries, organize awareness programs, and even hold fundraisers to make people realize the seriousness of the pollution problem. Government-owned bodies and privately-owned welfare organizations have focused on reducing air, water, and land pollution. While these lead to global warming and ozone layer depletion, there is another aspect that needs immediate attention.
The world fails to realize that noise is as serious as all other forms of pollution. It impacts millions of people every day, yet it remains ‘unnoticed.’ Referred to as an ‘invisible’ danger by National Geographic, there is a need to address the risks that noise pollution can have. From rock concerts to cell phones, all these activities produce noise that increases people’s risks by exposing them to hearing loss, blood pressure, stress, and several other health problems. Not just impacting humans, wildlife and marine life also have to endure noise pollution’s profound effects.
The USA-based company, Sound Fighter® Systems LLC., is one of those organizations actively working to help the world fight noise pollution. Founded to help people being exposed to loud or inescapable sounds, this company is at the forefront of providing soundproofing solutions across the country. The soundproofing products designed by the company work towards maximum noise attenuation outdoors. Since 1973, Sound Fighter Systems has been responsible for installing high-performance absorptive sound walls.
A Far-Sighted Approach Supported by Technology
Sound Fighter® Systems LLC. was founded in 1973 with a mission to address an aspect of pollution that is often overlooked by even the largest organizations. Noise pollution is a serious problem and needs immediate attention. Sound Fighter® Systems is a company that has adopted a far-sighted approach and supports its efforts through its Absorptive Noise Barrier technology. This is a technology that is a result of the collaboration of German Acoustical Engineers. With this technology in hand, the company puts in efforts to design products that offer maximum noise attenuation, especially for outdoor use.
The company, headquartered in Shreveport, designs soundproofing solutions for a wide range of industries. With its network of offices across Texas, this company offers its products to manufacturers, DOT, electrical utilities, passenger and freight rail, commercial HVAC contractors, Oil & Gas Producers, and several others. Being one of the oldest companies targeting the rising risks of noise pollution, Sound Fighter® System has served as a torchbearer for several groundbreaking technologies in this sector.
One of these technologies is the SonaGuard® Noise Barrier Wall System. It is a specialized product that has proved its worth in the reduction of noise pollution. The system comprises tongue-and-groove glass reinforced thermoset composite structural shell panels. It is covered with a UV resistant coating and is also immune to the effects of ozone and freeze-thaw cycles. These panels last long and are efficient in preventing the sound from escaping a worksite and affecting its people.
The company’s catalog also includes the LSE® Noise Barrier System. Unlike other noise barrier systems being used across the industries, Sound Fighter®’s barrier system features a sound absorptive technology. As compared to sound-reflective barriers, the absorptive barriers are much more efficient. They reduce reflections and maximize the barriers’ effectiveness, which leads to significant reductions in the noise levels around the site. Another product Sound Fighter® Systems has developed is the RetroSorb®, a sound-absorbing panel system built from aluminum components for rust and corrosion endurance. This proprietary technology guarantees to reduce Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 1.05 per ASTM C423-09A. Built for retrofitting onto reflective or elevated structures, these panels are incredibly durable and light.
Sound Fighter® Systems LLC has designed more than a hundred outdoor sound barriers with groundbreaking technologies such as SonaGuard®. From high-rise condo air conditioning noise reduction to Walmart stores, the company’s network of clients reaches far and wide across the country. With Patrick Harrison as the President and Rand Falbaum as Vice President, the company is serving as a game-changer in the industry.
