In 2020, a 170-meter-long WHIS®wall was installed in the Buyten district of Amersfoort, along a busy access road. This location required a smart noise solution that could effectively reduce traffic noise without compromising the open character of the neighborhood. Thanks to the WHIS®wall’s low yet powerful design, noise pollution was addressed while maintaining clear views and spatial quality.
Noise reduction without a high barrier
The WHIS®wall combines a concrete base with a corten steel diffractor that bends sound waves rather than absorbing them. This patented technology delivers a noise reduction of 7 to 9 dB, equivalent to a conventional 3-meter-high noise barrier—but with a height of only 1 meter. For residents of Buyten, this means a noticeable improvement in living comfort, without a visual wall between homes and their surroundings.
Fast installation, minimal maintenance
The WHIS®wall in Amersfoort was installed within just a few days. Thanks to its modular design and simple installation on a flat surface, time and costs were kept to a minimum. In addition, the system is low-maintenance—just one inspection every two years is sufficient to ensure functionality and safety.
