Gramm Barrier Systems Ltd is a leading
supplier and installer of acoustic barriers
GRAMM
and high security fencing systems,
including sliding barrier gates and
turnstiles. The company is an accredited
member of The European Fencing Industry GRAMM BARRIER SYSTEMS LTD
Association and a Link-Up approved ENVIRONMENTAL AND SECURITY BARRIER SPECIALIST
Railtrack contractor.
Gramm offers a full design service for a
range of reflective and absorptive barriers.
All barriers have been designed to be
aesthetically pleasing, offering excellent
noise abatement properties.

Timber barriers
Available as reflective or absorbing in a
range of heights from 1-6m, all barriers are
Highways Agency approved, conforming to
the latest Tec Memo HA65/94 (Part 1) and
HA 66/95 (Part 2), and are further backed
up with independent design checks and
P11. Sound attenuation for the reflective
systems are from Rw 22-35dB and Rw 35dB
for the absorptive system with an
absorption coefficient of 0.80 starting as
low as 200Hz.

Aluminium and steel barriers

High density mineral wool has good sound
deadening properties and can be encased
in either high specification pre- galvanised
and painted steel or aluminium panels to
produce a light weight sound absorbing
barrier. These are used extensively
throughout Europe within urban areas and
on structures.
Low level absorbing barriers Docklands Light Railway
Transparent barriers
A range of systems manufactured from cast
acrylic, extruded acrylic and extruded
polycarbonate is available. All barriers have
been designed to be weather resistant,
highly transparent with light transmittance
of up to 92% and, in some cases, break
resistant with incorporated splinter-binding
polyamide threads. Available in thicknesses
from 10-20mm, all barriers conform to ZTV-
law 88 and fire behaviour to BS 476: part 7
and have sound insulation properties up to
32dB.

Concrete barriers 5m high timber absorbing barrier

Reflective or absorptive concrete barriers Combined concrete absorbing for the control of industrial
are constructed from a wood fibre concrete and transparent acoustic barrier noise Gerber Foods
material and are designed to be highly
absorptive to road and railway generated
noise, with absorption exceeding 0.8 over
transport spectrum. The product is free
draining, self-cleaning and available in
various designs and colours.

Accessories
The Octagon Reducer is a sound absorbing
product designed to enhance the noise
reducing characteristics of any type of
acoustic screen. When the Octagon is
installed on a barrier, a relevant reduction
in diffracted sound energy is gained in the
shadow zone. This enables barrier heights
in new installations to be lowered at the
same time achieving the noise mitigation
values obtainable with conventional Timber reflective acoustic barrier for Railtrack Beckenham Hill
barriers of at least 1m higher. Alternatively,
the Octagon can be used to improve the
performance of existing installations.
