CSI is the leader in sound-absorptive
precast concrete technology world-wide


Don't reflect noise - absorb it with SoundSorb®, the most aesthetic acoustical finish available.

Concrete Solutions, Inc. (CSI) does not make the soundwall, we make the soundwall better by offering the advanced SoundSorb® finish technology to wall manufacturers internationally. There are millions of square feet of typical masonry or precast concrete sound reflective walls installed around the world and, unfortunately, the walls are not resolving the transportation noise pollution problem. In fact, in most cases, they are not very attractive and are reflecting the noise, creating greater noise concerns. It seems that these sound "reflective" walls are simply providing communities with a security/visual barrier while reflecting the noise back into the neighborhoods.

SoundSorb® is the proven solution for this problem. It is the sound absorptive finish added to the reflective noise wall panels that absorbs all the noise that impacts the wall while also dramatically improving the appearance of the wall, as it replicates any standard or custom texture and can be stained or colorized any color. SoundSorb® is supporting the recognition of the growing trend that walls need to be aesthetically pleasing, typically reflecting some important aspect of the community. Aesthetic walls provide visual comfort and help support property values.

Design and Environmental Engineers: SoundSorb® can be added as a acoustical textured finish to any noise barrier wall system. In the United States, the transportation design engineers using the recently mandated Traffic Noise Modeling (TNM) program can now introduce a noise reduction coefficient to their transportation model parameters and discover that with the use of SoundSorb® (NRC .80-1.0), the wall height can be lowered, significantly reducing the cost of the noise wall project. More design engineers, acoustical engineers and consultants are specifying SoundSorb® finish for projects requiring sound absorptive walls because of its acoustical properties, durability and versatility in design and texture. (See "SoundSorb® Specifications")

CSI is committed to providing a cost effective solution to noise polluting our environments. Make a "sound" investment! Whether it's a rail, highway or commercial noise barrier that is specified for construction in your area, request that SoundSorb®, our durable, cement-based, sound-abatement finish be added to the soundwall to benefit your living environment and protect property values.

Soundwall Manufacturers: You can now participate in this emerging sound absorptive noise abatement trend by contacting CSI for more information on how to add the cost effective SoundSorb® finish technology to your current wall design.
