Manufactured in India, supplied in Amritsar
Wooden slat acoustic panels in Amritsar
We manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Amritsar. Amritsar feeds and houses enormous numbers of visitors, which means very large halls where a crowd has to hear one voice.

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 material is and where it earns its place in Amritsar
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 Amritsar is mostly large dining and assembly halls, hotels and guest houses, restaurants, schools, clinics, offices.
Independent houses and RC frame apartments with stone and tile floors, in towns with agricultural and light industrial activity nearby.
- 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 Amritsar.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- MDFStandard. Dry interiors, general commercial
- FR MDFFire rated. Public buildings and anywhere the specification calls for a class
- HDHMRMoisture resistant. Humid climates and rooms that see damp

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Amritsar project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
What decides the build-up in Amritsar
- Halls handling continuous crowds
Very large rooms in constant use, where intelligibility fails long before anyone describes the room as echoing.
- Guest rooms in dense streets
Corridor noise and the room next door cause more complaints than the room itself. Door and partition detailing does that work.
- Old city access
Narrow lanes near the centre mean a lorry often cannot reach the door. We break pallets down to what can be carried.
- One to two days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead so the finish is approved first.
- 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.
Architects working in Amritsar usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
The Amritsar climate decides the material list
Amritsar 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 / Supply
How material reaches a Amritsar site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | one to two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | one to two days |
| Packing | Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry. |
| Lead time | Longer 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 four hundred and fifty kilometres, normally one to two days on a dedicated truck.
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.
06 / Worth knowing
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
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.
-
A number chased without a measurement
If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Amritsar certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Amritsar: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Amritsar factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Amritsar as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Amritsar feeds and houses enormous numbers of visitors, which means very large halls where a crowd has to hear one voice. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Amritsar enquiry?
Very large rooms in constant use, where intelligibility fails long before anyone describes the room as echoing. Corridor noise and the room next door cause more complaints than the room itself. Door and partition detailing does that work. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Amritsar conditions?
Amritsar 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.
What is the delivery time into Amritsar?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: one to 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.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
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.
