Manufactured in India, supplied in Thailand
Wood wool acoustic panels in Thailand
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels 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.

01 / Start here
What this material is and where it earns its place in Thailand
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 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.
- 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 Thailand.
02 / Specification
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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
| Panel size | 1200 x 600 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 20 mm |
| Density | 400 kg per cubic metre |
| NRC | 0.30 |
| Test standards | ASTM C-423 and EN ISO 354 |
| Surface burning | Class A to ASTM E84 |
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 / Local conditions
What decides the build-up in Thailand
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Temples, function halls and hotel ballrooms are tall hard volumes carrying amplified speech and music.
- School and campus buildings
Classrooms are hard and naturally ventilated, open to traffic and corridor noise, with large class sizes pushing levels up.
For a Thailand practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
What the Thailand climate rules in and rules out
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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
Getting it to Thailand, with real dates
| 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 | 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. 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 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.
06 / Before you buy
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
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.
-
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.

Suppliers who imply a Thailand 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.
Thailand: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Thailand 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 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.
What changes the specification on a Thailand job?
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.
When would material land on a Thailand site?
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.
What should you not buy wood wool acoustic panels for?
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.
