Fast & Easy Installation
Before installing GeoWool™, make sure to clear away any dust or grease and dry the surface, and then place carefully over the surface to be insulated. Care should be taken to ensure that the GeoWool™ fits properly and no gaps are left at the joints. Depending on the surface and equipment, pins or spacers should be used to fix the GeoWool™ in place. Check the fiber orientation of the GeoWool™ before sandwiching in between two metal surfaces with glue. Utmost care should be taken to ensure that the fibers are oriented perpendicular to the width of the two metal surfaces, in order to achieve optimum compression strength.

For cylindrical bass traps, you can go in for Knauf Ecose rolls (24 kg/cbm) and pack densely.

I installed these in a wooden frames and covered with fabric. Results were very impressive. Good for installing at reflection points around studio monitoring. Good people to work with, very helpful.
It was not that expensive. For proper Basstrapping, use two Panels one top of another. I bought 36 panels. Shipped very fast. I have covered 50% of my Entire room (Ceiling and Side walls). I am planning to buy 20 more to get bass traps at 20 points.

Using to soundproof office partition for 4000sqft site. Measured weight of panel on site in Ahmedabad is 4.29kg which works out to 118kg density so material is up to the mark and reliable.

5 out of 5 Good for studio
Kanti Gupta –
The best results for absorbing high and mid frequencies and for better performance in low mids using two layers (100mm) works well. I installed this in a wooden frame, covered with acoustically transparent fabric and installed one inch away from the wall. It’s mildly itchy if you get it on your skin so wear gloves, but the end results were very impressive. Good for installing at reflection points around studio monitoring. Good people to work with, very helpful.

Aryan Pandey –
Although it’s expensive, but then I realised shipping is free which makes it a great deal. Superb specs, perfect for low frequency trapping. Using it in a recording studio and works great. Easy to handle and cut. Traps the frequencies I had hoped.
