Ruconbar

RUCONBAR is a highly absorbing environmentally friendly concrete noise barrier. Its absorbing layer is produced out of recycled waste tyres and concrete.

Basically, it is a concrete product comprised of the absorbing and bearing layers. By applying 40% rubber granules from recycled car tires in the absorbing layer, we get a product which presents an innovation in the area of noise protection and which is unique in the market.

The RUCONBAR concept presents a cost-efficient and environmentally friendly solution for protection from noise, which is at the same time easily applicable.
