From Traffic Noise To A Peaceful Retreat.

An allotment garden gained a quieter outdoor space with a naturally desiged acoustic fence.

Søborg garden: Noistop fence ensures peace and harmony in allotmentgarden.

Outdoor space affected by noise.

A private allotment owner in an allotment association dreamed of more peace and quiet, greater privacy, and an outdoor space that could be used for relaxation. However, just outside the allotment was a heavily trafficked road, and reality proved quite different: traffic noise made it almost impossible to use the garden as the refuge an allotment is meant to be.

For an allotment owner, it is about more than just greenery, it is also about having a place to retreat from the noise of the city. Without a solution, the garden would remain unused – a place you would rather avoid.

The choice therefore fell on a solution that needed to be both effective and architecturally suited to the surroundings.

A 22-metre noise barrier solved the problem.

A 22-metre-long ROCKWOOL® Noistop® acoustic fence, 180 cm high, was installed. Design was important: the fence was finished with wooden cladding on the garden side, giving a warm, natural appearance that blends with the allotment setting while also creating a clear boundary.

The sound-absorbing stone wool core effectively dampens disturbing sound waves and frequencies from traffic, significantly improving the acoustic environment along the road.

The result turned out to be more than just less noise.

Architecture, peace, and privacy.

With the fence in place, the garden became what it was intended to be: a retreat. Traffic noise feels less intrusive, and the owner can once again use the outdoor space for relaxation and everyday living.

The solution also provides greater privacy and creates an attractive frame around the plot. At the same time, the design supports the owner’s planned construction of a modern allotment cabin, where the simple architectural expression and the wooden cladding work naturally together.


If your outdoor space is affected by traffic noise or other noise sources, and you want a solution that performs and looks good, ROCKWOOL® Noistop® could be the answer. Get in touch to find out more.
