Manufactured in India, supplied in Guwahati
Acoustic foam and BassBloc in Guwahati
We manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Guwahati. Guwahati is the gateway to the Northeast, so a good share of what we send here continues onward to sites across the region.
- 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
- Lead time
- 4 to 7 working days
- 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
Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / Start here
What this material is and where it earns its place in Guwahati
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 Guwahati is mostly hotels, hospitals, colleges, government buildings, offices, auditoriums, houses.
RC frame and timber construction with hard floors, built for very heavy rainfall and high humidity year round.
- 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 Guwahati.
02 / Specification
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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 thickness | 20 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 Guwahati project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

What decides the build-up in Guwahati
- Seismic detailing comes first
Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so the build-up must respect the structure rather than bridge it rigidly.
- A gateway, not just a destination
Material often continues into the Northeast on rougher roads. We brace and wrap for that second leg when you tell us it is happening.
- High humidity most of the year
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- Four days by road
A long run, confirmed before dispatch, with samples sent ahead of the order.
- The housing stock
RC frame and timber construction with hard floors, built for very heavy rainfall and high humidity year round.
- The studio and content scene
Studios go into basements, terrace rooms and back rooms with neighbours on every side and a generator somewhere in the lane. Isolating from the building has to come before treating the room.
If you are specifying for a Guwahati project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Guwahati changes the material, not the target
Guwahati 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.
If the visual is fixed and the room still has to perform, that is a solvable problem and a conversation worth having early. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
What the route into Guwahati actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | four days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | 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 nineteen hundred kilometres, normally four days on a dedicated truck.
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.
06 / Worth knowing
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
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 Guwahati
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.

Guwahati: questions we are actually asked
Are these acoustic foam and BassBloc made in Guwahati?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Guwahati as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Guwahati is the gateway to the Northeast, so a good share of what we send here continues onward to sites across the region. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Guwahati job?
Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so the build-up must respect the structure rather than bridge it rigidly. Material often continues into the Northeast on rougher roads. We brace and wrap for that second leg when you tell us it is happening. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Guwahati climate affect this product?
Guwahati 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.
How does an order actually travel to Guwahati?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: 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 will acoustic foam and BassBloc not do?
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.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
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.
