Manufactured in India, supplied in Thailand
Acoustic foam and BassBloc in Thailand
We manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Thailand. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Laem Chabang, then road to site, with the inland leg quoted rather than left out.

- 1800 x 900 mm
- BassBloc thickness
- 20 mm
- BassBloc density
- 100 kg per cubic metre
- Effective range
- 100 to 500 Hz
- BassBloc NRC

- 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
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 product
What this material is and where it earns its place in Thailand
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 Thailand is mostly industrial estates and plant, resorts and hotels, offices, hospitals, schools, studios.
Concrete frame with block infill and hard tile floors throughout. Condominium party walls and slabs pass impact noise directly.
- 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 Thailand.
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 / On the ground
The Thailand conditions that change the answer
- Two different markets
Industrial estate work is enclosure and mass. Resort work is guest room isolation and function room acoustics. We quote them differently because they are different problems.
- Heat and humidity all year
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag in a tropical climate.
- Cooling plant never stops
Large continuous cooling loads next to occupied space generate more complaints than anything happening inside the room.
- Resort programmes have fixed dates
Openings do not move. We give honest dispatch and transit windows rather than optimistic ones.
- The housing stock
Concrete frame with block infill and hard tile floors throughout. Condominium party walls and slabs pass impact noise directly.
- The studio and content scene
A large content and music production scene works out of rooms inside commercial buildings with thin partitions.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Thailand climate decides the material list
Thailand 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.
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 / Getting it there
How material reaches a Thailand site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Laem Chabang, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Laem Chabang |
| Packing | Compressed and boxed for foam, palletised flat for BassBloc. |
| Lead time | 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.
Sea freight into Laem Chabang, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
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.
06 / Before you buy
What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Thailand certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

Thailand: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic foam and BassBloc in Thailand?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Thailand as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Laem Chabang, then road to site, with the inland leg quoted rather than left out. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Thailand build-up differ from anywhere else?
Industrial estate work is enclosure and mass. Resort work is guest room isolation and function room acoustics. We quote them differently because they are different problems. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag in a tropical climate. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Thailand weather shorten the life of this material?
Thailand 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.
How quickly can material reach a site in Thailand?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Laem Chabang, 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 acoustic foam and BassBloc the wrong purchase?
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?
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.
