Found a I guy in Hardware Mecca who told me about this product: ThermocousTex - made from recycled materials, no fibreglass or such irritants, available in density up to 100kg/m3
http://www.thermocoustex.co.za/content/?page=home§ion=1&id=1
1. I am trying to build bass traps for frequencies below 80Hz. Can anyone give me an idea of how much of this stuff (thickness and density) I'm looking at to set up corner traps 2.8m high (floor to ceiling)?
2. They ship it as rolls in a Polythene tube. How about just setting it up IN the tube? Surely bass waves won't care? (Yes, I'm lazy! ;D)
Interestingly, I asked for a quote for 1400mm wide x 5m long x 50mm thick at 74kg/m3. I received the following:
Thanks for the enquiry not sure where you are, so I have given you an ex Durban price, secondly I have given a builders price as I am not sure what your business is, lastly you have not indicate a thickness so I have given some options;
This is not a standard product, if we are manufacturing at the time we can manufacture a minimum quantity of 250m?, the worst lead time is three weeks - even received a Green Star Rating!
Price per roll;
50mm 74kg/m?, 5m rolls x 1400mm R 1261, 75/roll
50mm 74kg/m?, 5m rolls x 1400mm R 90, 13 / roll
Prices exclude Vat and Delivery
