Manufactured in India, supplied in Malaysia
Soundproofing materials in Malaysia
We manufacture soundproofing materials at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Malaysia. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Klang or Penang, both well served from western India.

This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / The material
What this is, and what it changes in a Malaysia room
The blocking side of the range taken together: mass loaded vinyl, resilient layers, cavity absorption and the build-ups they belong in. This is the page for someone whose problem is noise getting through, not a room that sounds wrong.
Work reaching us from Malaysia is mostly electronics and manufacturing plants, hotels and resorts, offices, hospitals, schools, studios.
Concrete frame condominiums and terrace houses with hard tile floors throughout, sharing walls and slabs.
- Independent leaf A second wall that does not touch the first. Nothing else comes close for the money.
- Resilient bar Where a full independent leaf will not fit. Effective, and very easy to short circuit with one wrong screw.
- Floating floor Resilient layer and deck, to break impact energy before it reaches the structure.
- What it will not do Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our soundproofing materials are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Malaysia.

02 / Specification sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.
- Light retrofit2.5 mm membrane. Where depth is not available
- Standard partition4 mm membrane on an independent leaf. The common specification
- Heavy6 mm membrane and full decoupling. Plant, machine enclosure, low frequency

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Malaysia project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What the buildings in Malaysia do to the specification
- Plants and clean areas
Manufacturing floors need enclosure at the machine, and measurement rooms need a genuinely low background before any result means anything.
- Tropical humidity year round
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould. That decides whether a ceiling is still sound in five years.
- Cooling loads never stop
Continuous mechanical plant close to occupied space causes more complaints than the rooms themselves.
- Two well served ports
Port Klang and Penang both run frequently from India, so we can route to whichever suits your site.
- Plant and HVAC
Split units and VRF with condensers on balconies and in air wells, running at full load all year.
- The housing stock
Concrete frame condominiums and terrace houses with hard tile floors throughout, sharing walls and slabs.
For a Malaysia practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
The Malaysia climate decides the material list
Malaysia 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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
How material reaches a Malaysia site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Port Klang or Penang, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Port Klang |
| Packing | Rolls on core tubes, boards palletised, fixings and tapes listed on the same packing list. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for stock items. |
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 Port Klang or Penang, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
06 / Before you buy
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall. We would rather spend the conversation on the detail than on the product.
-
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.
-
A claim of being local to Malaysia
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.

How it looks once it is installed
Malaysia: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Malaysia factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Malaysia as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Klang or Penang, both well served from western India. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Malaysia build-up differ from anywhere else?
Manufacturing floors need enclosure at the machine, and measurement rooms need a genuinely low background before any result means anything. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould. That decides whether a ceiling is still sound in five years. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Malaysia climate?
Malaysia 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.
What is the delivery time into Malaysia?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Port Klang or Penang, 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.
When are soundproofing materials the wrong purchase?
Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall. We would rather spend the conversation on the detail than on the product.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
Minimum order is confirmed with the quote. Rolls on core tubes, boards palletised, fixings and tapes listed on the same packing list.

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.
