Our transparent sheets are specially developed for use as a noise barrier panel in transportation or building applications. Backed by decades of research and innovation - and a 30-year warranty - our high transparency grade sheets can be cut-to-size or framed to fit your project aesthetic and engineering requirements.
Ultra-high weather resistance ensures a light transmission of over 90% is retained over time with a minimum loss even after 30-year outdoor exposure. The same material is used in traffic signal and vehicle lighting for its quality assurance and luminous intensity necessary for public safety.
The ultimate shapeshifter, and weighing as little as 4 psf, transparent sheets ensure lightweight construction and make it an easier material to package, ship and install. Installed flat, cold-curved or thermoformed, almost any shape imaginable can be formed due to its flexural strength and thermoplastic properties. The versatility of transparent will allow you to maximize the noise protection and aesthetics by designing curved and modern structures.
No matter the system you choose, Superior products provide ample flexibility in construction scheduling and ease of installation. Our complete systems are custom engineered to address noise reduction, wind deflection, and safety needs, all while preserving the view.
Enhance the view even further colors, screen printed decorations or sandblasted features. Transparent can be clear, opaque, translucent and matte on one side. Even our framing details can be tailored to suite design aesthetics or durability requirements – from colored, powder coated aluminum to anodized bronze framing.
Our transparent noise barrier panels are made from specialized acrylic for long-lasting outdoor performance and come with a 30-year warranty. Highly impact-resistant, they reduce the need for steel supports while maximizing transparency.

Our systems are custom designed and engineered for real life applications.
3-sided Field Built Systems are ideal for bridges, elevated structures or any project that has been designed with strict dead load weight requirements. Site constructed flexibility allows design accommodations for grade changes with multiple mounting options or integrating into various wall systems.
A fully framed system that allows transparent panels to be used in any post and panel noise barrier system. Shipped direct to site, these framed panels are easily installed with steel or concrete posts, and combine seamlessly with other wall types to form an attractive and effective noise barrier.
Pedestrian bridges and railings are a unique application with design and safety having equal importance. Our transparent panels can be enhanced with fragment retention to withstand debris from vehicles or hurricane force winds. A superior safety feature that protects pedestrians while preserving light and visibility along any path.
Engineered for enhanced wind safety for drivers and pedestrians on bridge structures. Whether the goal is to prevent wind related motor vehicle accidents, or to limit bridge oscillation, wind barriers are a solution that enhance safety and the aerodynamic performance of bridge structures.
Our lightweight, compact material, we can go anywhere you need.
