Wooden slat acoustic panels in Ahmedabad

We manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad is hot, dry and building ambitiously, with a textile industry underneath it that has been running for a century.

Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.

01 / The material

What this is, and what it changes in a Ahmedabad room

Timber slats on an acoustic backing. The slats are the finish and the rhythm, the backing does the absorbing. Used where the room has to look considered rather than treated.

Work reaching us from Ahmedabad is mostly textile and processing units, institutional buildings, offices, auditoriums, schools, hospitals.

RC frame apartments and bungalows with stone and tile floors, in dry dusty conditions where open products collect dust.

  • Slats on felt backing The standard. Absorption comes from the backing behind the gaps, so the slat gap ratio is an acoustic decision, not only a visual one.
  • Slats on a cavity Backing plus an air gap behind moves absorption lower, which matters in music rooms.
  • Feature wall only Slats where they are seen, plain felt elsewhere, to hold the budget where it shows.
  • What it will not do A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.

Full specification

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wooden slat panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Ahmedabad.

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 Ahmedabad conditions that change the answer

  • Textile machinery runs all shift

    Continuous machine noise in units that often sit close to housing. Enclosure and barrier at the source, not lining the hall.

  • Ambitious new buildings

    Exposed concrete and brick used as the finish, which looks superb and reflects almost everything. Absorption has to go where it will not fight the architecture.

  • Dry heat

    PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or degrade at high temperature, which matters in roof voids and rooms that get genuinely hot.

  • Two days from the plant

    A short run by Indian standards, so freight is cheap and samples arrive quickly.

  • Assembly and performance rooms

    Auditoriums, banquet halls and places of worship are large hard volumes in concrete and stone where speech falls apart long before anyone calls the room echoey.

If you are specifying for a Ahmedabad project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate

Why the climate in Ahmedabad changes the material, not the target

Ahmedabad is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.

Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves.

The risk we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.

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 / Logistics

How material reaches a Ahmedabad site

Supply into Ahmedabad
Made atOur own plant, Palwal, Haryana
Reaches site intwo days
Dispatch2 to 4 working days
To sitetwo days
PackingBraced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry.
Lead timeLonger than felt. Confirmed against the pattern and substrate at quote stage.

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 nine hundred kilometres, normally two days on a dedicated truck.

500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, whatever the substrate, pattern, width or thickness.

Minimum order, wooden slat acoustic panels
Any specification500 sq ft, about 46 sq m

One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order.

06 / Read this first

What we will tell you that a reseller will not

  • The wrong product for the problem

    A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.

  • Coverage bought instead of a target

    Lining every surface is a purchase, not a result. We would rather calculate the area against a reverberation target and sell you less of it.

  • Suppliers who imply a Ahmedabad presence

    Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.

FAQ

Ahmedabad: questions we are actually asked

Do you manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels in Ahmedabad?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Ahmedabad as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Ahmedabad is hot, dry and building ambitiously, with a textile industry underneath it that has been running for a century. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

Why would a Ahmedabad build-up differ from anywhere else?

Continuous machine noise in units that often sit close to housing. Enclosure and barrier at the source, not lining the hall. Exposed concrete and brick used as the finish, which looks superb and reflects almost everything. Absorption has to go where it will not fight the architecture. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Does Ahmedabad weather shorten the life of this material?

Ahmedabad is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures. Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves. The failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.

What is the delivery time into Ahmedabad?

made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two days, 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 should you not buy wooden slat acoustic panels for?

A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.

How is the order packed and what is the minimum?

500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, whatever the substrate, pattern, width or thickness. Any specification, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order. Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry.
