Manufactured in India, supplied in Jammu
Acoustic foam and BassBloc in Jammu
We manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Jammu. Jammu is a pilgrimage gateway in a high seismic zone, which changes both the hospitality brief and what the structure will accept.
- 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
We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.
01 / The product
What this is, and what it changes in a Jammu room
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 Jammu is mostly hotels and guest houses, assembly halls, institutional buildings, hospitals, schools, offices.
Brick and RC construction with timber detailing and hard floors, built for cold winters with thick external 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 Jammu.
02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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 |
If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What decides the build-up in Jammu
- Seismic detailing comes first
Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so a build-up must not stiffen across them.
- Continuous guest turnover
Rooms occupied around the clock in season. Corridor and door detailing carries the guest experience.
- Hill roads on the last leg
The final stretch is steep and rough. We brace and wrap for that rather than for a smooth dock transfer.
- Two days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, confirmed before dispatch, with samples sent ahead.
- The housing stock
Brick and RC construction with timber detailing and hard floors, built for cold winters with thick external walls.
- The studio and content scene
Limited studio work, mostly small content and broadcast rooms fitted inside existing buildings with thick masonry walls that help more than they hinder.
Architects working in Jammu 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 / Conditions
The Jammu climate decides the material list
Jammu is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
Getting it to Jammu, with real dates
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two 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 six hundred kilometres, normally two days on a dedicated truck. The final hill leg is planned into the schedule.
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 / Straight talk
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.
-
Suppliers who imply a Jammu 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.

How it looks once it is installed
Jammu: questions we are actually asked
Where are the acoustic foam and BassBloc you supply to Jammu actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Jammu as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Jammu is a pilgrimage gateway in a high seismic zone, which changes both the hospitality brief and what the structure will accept. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Jammu enquiry?
Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so a build-up must not stiffen across them. Rooms occupied around the clock in season. Corridor and door detailing carries the guest experience. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Jammu climate?
Jammu is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
What is the delivery time into Jammu?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two 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.
