Manufactured in India, supplied in Sweden
Wood wool acoustic panels in Sweden
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Sweden. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gothenburg, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Sweden is a long country.

01 / The material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Sweden
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
Work reaching us from Sweden is mostly timber buildings and apartments, offices, schools, healthcare, hotels, studios.
Concrete apartment blocks and timber frame housing with tight envelopes, hard floors and cold external walls.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Sweden.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- Natural20 mm. Plant rooms, back of house, industrial
- Painted20 mm. Classrooms, halls, visible ceilings

On a Sweden job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What we see driving Sweden briefs
- Classes are written and verified
Projects arrive with a class and someone checks it afterwards. Send us the target and we will say where our material sits against it.
- Timber at scale
Sweden builds tall in timber, and timber is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work.
- Sealed through a long winter
Ventilation runs constantly in closed buildings, so plant noise matters more than street noise.
- A long country
A site in the north has a real domestic leg. We quote it separately so the dates are honest.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Church buildings, culture houses and school halls are hard long-decay volumes.
- School and campus buildings
Classroom acoustics are regulated, and open plan learning areas make speech intelligibility the design target.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
The Sweden climate decides the material list
Sweden is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.
The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
How material reaches a Sweden site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Gothenburg, then road onward to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Gothenburg |
| Packing | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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.
Sea freight into Gothenburg, then road onward to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
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 Sweden 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.
Sweden: questions we are actually asked
Are these wood wool acoustic panels made in Sweden?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Sweden as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gothenburg, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Sweden is a long country. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Sweden build-up differ from anywhere else?
Projects arrive with a class and someone checks it afterwards. Send us the target and we will say where our material sits against it. Sweden builds tall in timber, and timber is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Sweden weather shorten the life of this material?
Sweden is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
How does an order actually travel to Sweden?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Gothenburg, then road onward to site, 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.
What will wood wool acoustic panels not do?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.
Next step
Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
