  • 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 material

What this is, and what it changes in a Las Vegas 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 Las Vegas is mostly venues and showrooms, hotels and casinos, conference and event space, offices, multifamily.

American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.

  • 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 Las Vegas.

02 / Data sheet

The published figures, unchanged by location

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

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 we see driving Las Vegas briefs

  • Rooms judged at full capacity

    A showroom or venue behaves nothing like it does empty. The design has to work when the room is packed, which is when it is being assessed.

  • Enormous volumes

    Conference and event spaces with very large cubic volume hold sound for a long time. Absorption has to go where it recovers intelligibility.

  • Extreme dry heat

    PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or break down at high temperature, which matters in roof voids and plant spaces that get genuinely hot.

  • No port, so plan the road leg

    Everything arrives at Long Beach and drives. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately.

  • The housing stock

    American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.

  • The studio and content scene

    Home and project studios go into basements and converted garages with equipment budgets far ahead of the building. The room leaks to the floor above long before it sounds wrong inside.

We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate and durability

Why the climate in Las Vegas changes the material, not the target

Las Vegas is mild summers and cold, wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.

Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air.

The risk we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new linings.

Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.

The same minimums apply on export.

Minimum order, acoustic foam and bassbloc
Acoustic foam200 sq ft, about 19 sq m
BassBloc300 sq ft, about 28 sq m

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 / Read this first

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.

  • 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 Las Vegas

    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.

FAQ

Las Vegas: questions we are actually asked

Are these acoustic foam and BassBloc made in Las Vegas?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Las Vegas as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Long Beach and trucked across, with the road leg quoted separately so the dates are real. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What changes the specification on a Las Vegas job?

A showroom or venue behaves nothing like it does empty. The design has to work when the room is packed, which is when it is being assessed. Conference and event spaces with very large cubic volume hold sound for a long time. Absorption has to go where it recovers intelligibility. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

How does the Las Vegas climate affect this product?

Las Vegas is mild summers and cold, wet winters. Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air. The failure we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new linings.

What is the delivery time into Las Vegas?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Long Beach, then road across to Las Vegas, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.

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.

What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?

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.

Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out

A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
