An innovative acoustic wall panel made from 100% New Zealand strong wool is set to make an impact in Asia this week. Floc, a revolutionary product by Wellington based firm T&R Interior Systems, is the only New Zealand brand exhibiting at the prestigious FIND-Design Show Asia in Singapore, championing New Zealand’s premium wool and design innovation.

“We are proud to represent New Zealand at the FIND - Design Fair Asia,” says Tom O’Sullivan, Business Development Manager at Floc. “Floc showcases the best of our nation’s resources—100% strong wool—and taps into a growing global interest in natural materials that offer both health and functional benefits.”

Manufactured in Christchurch, Floc's wool wall panels are gaining recognition for their acoustic properties, hypoallergenic nature, and temperature regulation, making them ideal for modern commercial and educational spaces. Wool’s natural fibres effectively absorb sound, reducing echoes and reverberation, and creating spaces that promote well-being.

In addition to acoustics, wool offers health benefits that synthetic materials cannot match. Its hypoallergenic nature, ability to filter air pollutants, regulate humidity, and resist bacteria makes Floc an excellent choice for healthier indoor environments.

A key focus for Floc as it continues to innovate is achieving an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), a certification that will further validate its market appeal and credibility. This achievement would solidify Floc’s place as a leading sustainable material for architects and designers looking for high-performance, environmentally friendly solutions.

“The international interest in natural, high-performance materials is rising, and New Zealand wool is perfectly positioned to meet that demand,” says Tom. “Floc is proving that New Zealand products can compete and lead on a global stage.”

Floc’s presence at the FIND - Design Fair Asia is a significant milestone for T&R Interior Systems, marking the start of its global expansion while proudly representing New Zealand wool.
