Manufactured in India, supplied in Cambodia
Acoustic foam and BassBloc in Cambodia
We manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Cambodia. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Sihanoukville, then road to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap.

- Minimum order
- From 200 sq ft
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
- Test reports sent on request, not just quoted
We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Cambodia job
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 Cambodia is mostly garment and manufacturing units, hotels, offices, schools, hospitals, restaurants.
Concrete frame with block infill, shophouses and new condominium towers, all with hard floors and shared walls.
- 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 Cambodia.
02 / The numbers
One specification sheet, the same in every market
We publish one data sheet for every market. If a supplier quotes you a different figure for the same product in a different city, one of the two numbers is wrong.
- 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 thickness | 20 mm |
| BassBloc density | 100 kg per cubic metre |
| Effective range | 100 to 500 Hz |
| BassBloc NRC | 0.85 |
Consultants get the raw data, not a sales sheet. That is the whole of our side of the job, and it is set out under working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What decides the build-up in Cambodia
- Generators are part of the building
Standby generation runs often enough to be a permanent condition and sits close to occupied space. Enclosure at the source is the only real fix.
- Garment floors at scale
Large production halls with continuous machine noise and rooms where instructions and alarms must be understood.
- Tropical humidity
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which decides whether a ceiling survives more than a couple of seasons.
- Hospitality in heritage towns
Hotel work where guest room isolation and function room acoustics are the recurring briefs.
- The housing stock
Concrete frame with block infill, shophouses and new condominium towers, all with hard floors and shared walls.
- The studio and content scene
A small but growing content sector working inside shophouses and commercial floors.
Architects working in Cambodia usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
What the Cambodia climate rules in and rules out
Cambodia 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.
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
What the route into Cambodia actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Sihanoukville, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Sihanoukville |
| Packing | Compressed and boxed for foam, palletised flat for BassBloc. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Sihanoukville, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export.
| 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.
06 / Worth knowing
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.
-
A number chased without a measurement
If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.
-
Suppliers who imply a Cambodia presence
Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.

The product on finished jobs
Cambodia: questions we are actually asked
Where are the acoustic foam and BassBloc you supply to Cambodia actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Cambodia as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Sihanoukville, then road to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Cambodia project?
Standby generation runs often enough to be a permanent condition and sits close to occupied space. Enclosure at the source is the only real fix. Large production halls with continuous machine noise and rooms where instructions and alarms must be understood. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Cambodia conditions?
Cambodia 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.
When would material land on a Cambodia site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Sihanoukville, then road to site, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Where do acoustic foam and BassBloc fail to help?
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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same minimums apply on export. 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.
