Manufactured in India, supplied in Agra
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Agra
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Agra. Agra is a hotel city with a footwear and leather industry behind it, and both come to us for very different reasons.
- Material
- 100% PET non-woven, the panel family
- Thickness
- 9 to 24 mm
- Size
- Made to the drawing, standard and custom
- Exposure
- Both faces work, which is why suspended area outperforms the same area laid flat
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- Confirmed against the drawing
- Minimum order
- 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / The product
What this is, and what it changes in a Agra room
PET felt suspended from the soffit, vertically as baffles or horizontally as clouds. It is how you treat a room with exposed services, where there is no ceiling to line.
Work reaching us from Agra is mostly hotels and guest houses, footwear and leather units, restaurants, offices, schools, clinics.
Independent houses and builder flats in brick and RC frame, often built floor by floor for different households, so the slab between them was never detailed as a separation.
- Vertical baffles Hung on edge in rows. Both faces absorb, so coverage figures based on plan area understate them.
- Horizontal clouds Flat rafts over the occupied zone, which also reflect early speech energy back down where it helps.
- Mixed with services Set out around ducts, trays and lighting rather than fighting them, coordinated from your reflected ceiling plan.
- What it will not do Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for baffles and clouds are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Agra.

02 / The numbers
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

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 / On the ground
The Agra conditions that change the answer
- Guest rooms fail at the door
Corridor noise and the room next door generate more complaints than room acoustics ever do. Door and partition detailing does that work.
- Footwear and leather units
Machinery and presses running long shifts close to occupied areas. Enclosure at the source rather than lining the hall.
- Dense old city access
Narrow lanes near the heritage area mean a lorry often cannot reach the door. Tell us and we break the pallets down.
- Next day from the plant
A short run, so freight stays cheap and samples reach you quickly.
- School and campus buildings
Large government and private schools in concrete and tile with very large class sizes, and long open corridors that feed every classroom off them.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
Durability in Agra, before acoustics is discussed
Agra is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
How material reaches a Agra site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | next day |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | next day |
| Packing | Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing. |
| Lead time | Confirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
By road from Palwal, roughly one hundred and eighty kilometres, normally next day on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together.

Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does.

The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
-
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.

A claim of being local to Agra
We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.
Agra: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Agra?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Agra as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Agra is a hotel city with a footwear and leather industry behind it, and both come to us for very different reasons. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Agra enquiry?
Corridor noise and the room next door generate more complaints than room acoustics ever do. Door and partition detailing does that work. Machinery and presses running long shifts close to occupied areas. Enclosure at the source rather than lining the hall. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Agra climate affect this product?
Agra is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
How quickly can material reach a site in Agra?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: next day, dispatch: 2 to 4 working days. Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
What will ceiling baffles and clouds not do?
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together. Baffles and clouds, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does. Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing.
