Manufactured in India, supplied in Indonesia
Wooden slat acoustic panels in Indonesia
We manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Indonesia. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Tanjung Priok, then road or inter-island onward, with the second leg quoted when it applies.

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 / The product
What this material is and where it earns its place in Indonesia
Timber slats on an acoustic backing. The slats are the finish and the rhythm, the backing does the absorbing. Used where the room has to look considered rather than treated.
Work reaching us from Indonesia is mostly offices and towers, hotels and resorts, manufacturing plants, hospitals, schools, studios.
Concrete frame with block infill in cities, timber and light construction outside them. Apartment stock shares walls and slabs that were never detailed for two households.
- Slats on felt backing The standard. Absorption comes from the backing behind the gaps, so the slat gap ratio is an acoustic decision, not only a visual one.
- Slats on a cavity Backing plus an air gap behind moves absorption lower, which matters in music rooms.
- Feature wall only Slats where they are seen, plain felt elsewhere, to hold the budget where it shows.
- What it will not do A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wooden slat panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Indonesia.
02 / Specification sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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.
- MDFStandard. Dry interiors, general commercial
- FR MDFFire rated. Public buildings and anywhere the specification calls for a class
- HDHMRMoisture resistant. Humid climates and rooms that see damp
| Substrate | MDF, FR MDF, HDF or HDHMR |
|---|---|
| Patterns | 13-3, 14-2, 28-4 and 59-5 |
| Panel sizes | 2440 x 192 mm and 2440 x 128 mm |
| Thickness | 14, 16 and 18 mm |
| Coverage | 96 sq ft per unit |
| Fire class | EN 13501-1 Class B s1 d0 on FR substrate |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Indonesia project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What decides the build-up in Indonesia
- An onward leg is normal
Material often continues by road or inter-island ferry after the port. Tell us and we brace and wrap for the second journey.
- Tropical humidity all year
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- Dense cities, constant traffic
Street noise reaches rooms through openings and glazing long before it comes through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
- Manufacturing at scale
Plant noise where enclosure and mass do the work, and measurement rooms that need a genuinely low background.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Places of worship, function halls and community buildings are large hard rooms carrying amplified speech and music.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
The Indonesia climate decides the material list
Indonesia 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.
For a Indonesia interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Getting it there
Supply into Indonesia, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Tanjung Priok, then road or onward by sea |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Tanjung Priok |
| Packing | Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry. |
| Lead time | Longer than felt. Confirmed against the pattern and substrate at quote stage. |
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 Tanjung Priok, then road or inter-island onward. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| Any specification | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order.
06 / Worth knowing
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.

A claim of being local to Indonesia
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.
Indonesia: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels in Indonesia?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Indonesia as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Tanjung Priok, then road or inter-island onward, with the second leg quoted when it applies. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Indonesia project?
Material often continues by road or inter-island ferry after the port. Tell us and we brace and wrap for the second journey. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Indonesia conditions?
Indonesia 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 quickly can material reach a site in Indonesia?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Tanjung Priok, then road or onward by sea, 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 wooden slat acoustic panels fail to help?
A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. Any specification, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order. Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry.

Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
Send what you have. We will give you a layer by layer build-up, a bill of quantities and a date material lands, and we will flag anything in the brief that will not achieve what you want.
