Manufactured in India, supplied in Alibaug
Acoustic foam and BassBloc in Alibaug
We manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Alibaug. Alibaug is weekend houses for Mumbai, which means private cinema rooms and entertaining spaces built to a standard, in a coastal climate that punishes the wrong material.

This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / The material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Alibaug
Open cell foam shapes for high frequency control, and BassBloc, a high density absorber built for the low mid range where ordinary foam does nothing.
Work reaching us from Alibaug is mostly weekend villas, private cinema and music rooms, boutique hotels, restaurants, spas.
Towers and chawls side by side, in RC frame with tile floors. Redevelopment stock shares slabs and lift cores, and monsoon damp rules out anything that holds moisture.
- Corner loading Low frequency energy collects in corners, so absorber in the corners does more than the same area spread across a wall.
- First reflection points Mirror trick placement on side walls and ceiling, which is a handful of panels rather than a lined room.
- Behind a fabric frame Where the room has to look finished, absorber inside a frame rather than foam on show.
- What it will not do Thin foam on a wall is the most over-sold product in this industry. It controls flutter and nothing below it.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic foam and bass traps are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Alibaug.
02 / Specification sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- Foam wedge and pyramidLow density. Flutter and high frequency only
- BassBloc100 kg per cubic metre. Low mid absorption, control rooms, live rooms
| BassBloc size | 1800 x 900 mm |

| BassBloc density | 100 kg per cubic metre |
| Effective range | 100 to 500 Hz |
| BassBloc NRC | 0.85 |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Alibaug project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

What we see driving Alibaug briefs
- Rooms built to a standard
These are dedicated spaces with a real budget, so low frequency control is the main event rather than an afterthought.
- Sea air and heavy monsoon
PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or feed mould. Mineral products fail here within a single season.
- Access can involve a ferry
The final approach is not always a straight road run. Tell us the access and we pack and schedule around it.
- Villas are lightly built
Coastal construction is often lighter than it looks, so mass has to be added rather than assumed.
- The housing stock
Towers and chawls side by side, in RC frame with tile floors. Redevelopment stock shares slabs and lift cores, and monsoon damp rules out anything that holds moisture.
- The studio and content scene
The deepest film, dubbing and music production base in the country, with rooms built inside commercial and residential buildings under real neighbour constraints.
For a Alibaug practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Alibaug changes the material, not the target
Alibaug is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them.
The risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
What the route into Alibaug actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | three to four days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | three to four days |
| Packing | Compressed and boxed for foam, palletised flat for BassBloc. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
By road from Palwal, roughly fourteen hundred and fifty kilometres, normally three to four days. The final approach can involve a ferry crossing, which we plan around.
200 sq ft for acoustic foam, 300 sq ft for BassBloc, 10 pieces for bass traps.
| Acoustic foam | 200 sq ft, about 19 sq m |
|---|---|
| BassBloc | 300 sq ft, about 28 sq m |
| Bass traps | 10 pieces |
A BassBloc panel is 1800 x 900 mm, which is 1.62 sq m or about 17.4 sq ft, so the BassBloc minimum is roughly 17 panels.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Thin foam on a wall is the most over-sold product in this industry. It controls flutter and nothing below it. If the complaint is boom, bass from a neighbour, or a room that sounds uneven at low frequency, foam is the wrong purchase and we will say so.
-
Coverage bought instead of a target
Lining every surface is a purchase, not a result. We would rather calculate the area against a reverberation target and sell you less of it.
-
A claim of being local to Alibaug
We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.

Alibaug: questions we are actually asked
Are these acoustic foam and BassBloc made in Alibaug?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Alibaug as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Alibaug is weekend houses for Mumbai, which means private cinema rooms and entertaining spaces built to a standard, in a coastal climate that punishes the wrong material. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Alibaug build-up differ from anywhere else?
These are dedicated spaces with a real budget, so low frequency control is the main event rather than an afterthought. PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or feed mould. Mineral products fail here within a single season. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Alibaug climate?
Alibaug is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them. The failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
What is the delivery time into Alibaug?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: three to four days, dispatch: 2 to 4 working days. Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
What should you not buy acoustic foam and BassBloc for?
Thin foam on a wall is the most over-sold product in this industry. It controls flutter and nothing below it. If the complaint is boom, bass from a neighbour, or a room that sounds uneven at low frequency, foam is the wrong purchase and we will say so.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
200 sq ft for acoustic foam, 300 sq ft for BassBloc, 10 pieces for bass traps. Acoustic foam, 200 sq ft, about 19 sq m. BassBloc, 300 sq ft, about 28 sq m. Bass traps, 10 pieces. A BassBloc panel is 1800 x 900 mm, which is 1.62 sq m or about 17.4 sq ft, so the BassBloc minimum is roughly 17 panels. Compressed and boxed for foam, palletised flat for BassBloc.
