Upgraded Intelligence, Sounding Global: Suzhou Forest’s 2025 Year in Review – Redefining Industry Standards with a Full Industry Chain Layout

As the seasons change and a new chapter unfolds, looking back at 2025 from the threshold of 2026, it has been an extraordinary year for Forest, rooted in Suzhou. This year witnessed our profound transformation from "manufacturing" to "intelligent manufacturing." Through technological innovation, capacity upgrades, and a strategically expanded global vision, we have written a remarkable chapter in the field of acoustic materials.

New Showroom, New Image: The Unveiling of an Immersive Acoustic Aesthetics Experience

In 2025, the new acoustic panel showroom of Suzhou Forest was officially completed and opened. This is more than just a product display space; it is an immersive experience center integrating acoustic technology demonstration, scenario-based applications, and design aesthetics.

The new showroom comprehensively showcases our core products, including PET needle-punched felt acoustic panels, hybrid fiber wall decoration components, and multi-structure acoustic grilles. Through meticulous spatial design and professional sound field construction, visitors can intuitively perceive the excellent broadband sound absorption performance of Forest products. A dedicated comparison experience area in the showroom translates professional terms like "gradient impedance matching" and "acoustic energy conversion" into tangible experiences of quietness, fully demonstrating the company's profound expertise in underlying acoustic technologies. The completion of this showroom not only enhances our brand image but also serves as a vital bridge connecting customers, designers, and partners.

Core of Intelligent Manufacturing: In-House Equipment Factory, Mastering Core Productivity

In 2025, Forest made a strategically significant decision – to officially complete and commence operations at its own equipment factory. This move marks a critical milestone for the company, achieving a closed-loop system covering the entire chain from "the machines that make the machines" to the "final products."

Leveraging self-developed and manufactured production equipment, Forest has achieved precise control over its production processes. Crucially, integrated with the new "PET needle-punched felt acoustic panels" and "hybrid fiber needle-punched baking and setting" processes advanced by the company in 2025, the in-house equipment factory ensures that every step, from thermoforming to interfacial molecular chain entanglement, is optimized. Building our products with our own equipment not only significantly enhances production efficiency and yield rates but also guarantees consistent and stable quality for products delivered to global clients. This closed-loop model of "equipment + products" is becoming a unique and difficult-to-replicate core moat for Forest in the fiercely competitive market.

Global Vision: Expanding Overseas, 13 New Partnerships Leverage International Markets

Letting "Made in Suzhou" resonate globally has always been Forest's ambition. In 2025, the company's foreign trade landscape achieved a leapfrog expansion, successfully establishing 13 new overseas cooperation projects. These collaborations span across Europe, Southeast Asia, and North America, covering various fields including automotive interiors, architectural acoustics, and industrial noise reduction.

Relying on a dense portfolio of patented technologies in the acoustic materials sector (such as patents for "easy-to-install acoustic panel grilles"), Forest's products have solved long-standing installation challenges for overseas clients while delivering sound insulation performance that far exceeds expectations. Moving from simple product export to the output of technical solutions, these 13 partnerships represent 13 instances of significant trust. This marks a solid step for the Forest brand in its journey from a "Chinese supplier" towards a "global acoustic solution expert," laying a strong foundation for deeper globalization in 2026.

Design Innovation: Reconstructing Material Aesthetics, Leading Industry Trends

Technology forms the skeleton, but design is the soul. In 2025, Forest also implemented bold reforms and innovations in the field of design and development. We broke the stereotype of acoustic materials being "functional but not aesthetic," integrating the concept of "decorative components" into our product development.

As seen in the wall decoration components displayed in our new showroom, Forest's design team now focuses not only on sound absorption coefficients but also delves into the relationship between materials and light, structure and color. Whether it's optimizing spatial utilization through combinations of porous panels and grooved boards, or creating decorative panels with unique textures using hybrid fiber needle-punching and baking processes, Forest aims to integrate acoustic materials seamlessly into interior design. This reform and innovation, which deeply integrates acoustic performance with design aesthetics, have earned us greater favor in the high-end commercial and residential markets.

The past year has shown us great splendor; the new year calls for further progress. From a new factory to a global cooperation network, from patented technologies to a strikingly designed showroom, Suzhou Forest delivered a powerful testament to the strength of a "full industry chain" in 2025.

Standing at the threshold of 2026, we will continue to uphold our craftsmanship spirit. Driven by the dual engines of our proprietary equipment and technological innovation, we are committed to promoting more high-quality "Suzhou-made" acoustic products worldwide, letting the world hear the powerful voice of the Chinese brand.
