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 material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Taiwan
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 Taiwan is mostly manufacturing and measurement rooms, apartments, offices, hotels, schools, hospitals.
Reinforced concrete towers and older walk ups with hard tile floors, sitting very close together on narrow streets.
- 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 Taiwan.
02 / Specification sheet
The published figures, unchanged by location
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- 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

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Taiwan 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 we see driving Taiwan briefs
- Measurement rooms are unforgiving
A test or metrology space needs a genuinely low background before any reading means anything. That is isolation against a written target.
- Built to move
Seismic detailing means junctions that must stay flexible. An acoustic layer cannot bridge a movement joint rigidly.
- Dense apartment living
Concrete blocks where impact through the slab is the recurring complaint rather than airborne transfer.
- Typhoons and humidity
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters through a humid season in a sealed room.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Temples, halls and auditoria are hard volumes carrying amplified speech and music.
For a Taiwan practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Taiwan climate decides the material list
Taiwan 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.
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
How material reaches a Taiwan site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Kaohsiung or Taipei, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Kaohsiung |
| 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 Kaohsiung or Taipei, then road to site. 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.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
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.
-
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 Taiwan
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.
Taiwan: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels in Taiwan?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Taiwan as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Kaohsiung or Taipei, then road to site. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Taiwan enquiry?
A test or metrology space needs a genuinely low background before any reading means anything. That is isolation against a written target. Seismic detailing means junctions that must stay flexible. An acoustic layer cannot bridge a movement joint rigidly. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Taiwan conditions?
Taiwan 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.
When would material land on a Taiwan site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Kaohsiung or Taipei, 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.
What should you not buy wooden slat acoustic panels for?
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.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
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.
