Where sound insulation can improve the quality of life in Hamburg
Every city has its own unique acoustics. The various acoustic disturbances can be very stressful for residents in the long term.
Measures such as the targeted use of highly absorbent noise barriers can provide a remedy here and ensure quieter zones. RAU® takes into account the individual requirements of each location and adapts noise protection projects accordingly. Whether the source of the noise is road or rail traffic, industry or another area – we will find the right measure for peace and quiet in the metropolitan region.
Innovative solutions for noise protection in Hamburg
Green noise protection in Hamburg
Noise barriers made of wood, glass and other materials
In addition to green noise barriers, our range also includes structures made of wood, glass, concrete and aluminum. Before construction, the material is selected to suit the respective requirements of the project:
Wooden noise barriers
are sustainable and particularly stable and robust, even against chemicals. Thanks to their natural coloring, they harmonize perfectly with green areas. The long-lasting noise barrier blends unobtrusively into the cityscape.
Sound insulation made of glass
offers the advantage of high light transmission. This makes the wall appear less solid and prevents strong shadows from being cast. These models are therefore particularly suitable for use between buildings. The walls are also very robust and weather-resistant.
Noise barriers made of aluminum
are narrow, highly absorbent and durable. They can also be selected in different colors to perfectly match the surroundings. Greenery and an anti-graffiti coating are also possible.
Concrete sound insulation
is characterized by excellent sound insulation, easy maintenance and a long service life. Thanks to the flexible design by RAU®, the highly absorbent noise barriers are also a visual enhancement.
Noise protection regulations in Hamburg
The diversity of the city of Hamburg is also reflected in the various sources of noise in different parts of the city. In principle, a basic obligation for considerate behavior applies, which is regulated in Section 1 (1) of the HmbLärmSchG. Nevertheless, many residents are still exposed to noise levels of up to 55 dB at night. The city wants to ensure noise protection in Hamburg with various measures.
However, despite legal measures, noise can reduce the quality of life. Traffic noise is the biggest problem in terms of noise pollution, but other sources can also cause noise in Hamburg:
Traffic noise on roads and railways
Construction noise
Equipment and machine noise
Harbor noise
Restaurant noise
The rules on noise protection differ depending on the environment. For example, different regulations apply in industrial areas than in residential areas.
