Manufactured in India, supplied in Amsterdam
Acoustic carpet and rugs in Amsterdam
We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Amsterdam. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Rotterdam, roughly eighty kilometres from the city, so the inland leg stays short and the landed cost stays predictable.

01 / Start here
The material, and what it actually does on a Amsterdam job
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. It absorbs at the floor and, more usefully, kills footfall and chair scrape at the point they are generated.
Work reaching us from Amsterdam is mostly canal house apartments, hotels, offices in Zuid and Noord, studios, bars, clinics.
Narrow terraced houses and canal buildings share party walls, with timber floors upstairs and concrete below. Neighbours on both sides is the default condition.
- Loose lay on tackifier Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
- Over a resilient underlay Where impact noise to the floor below is the actual complaint, the underlay does that work, not the carpet.
- Zoned Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
- What it will not do Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic carpet and rugs are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Amsterdam.
02 / The numbers
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
Nothing below changes by location. The decisions that do change are grade, thickness and how the material is mounted, and those are covered further down.
- Standard tile4 mm. Offices, classrooms, studios, corridors
| Tile size | 500 x 500 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 4 mm |
| Face | High density polyester |
| Backing | Felt |
| Pack coverage | 64 sq ft per pack |
| Boxed | 20 kg, 55 x 55 x 15 cm |
On a Amsterdam job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What we see driving Amsterdam briefs
- Canal houses carry everything
Seventeenth century houses were built narrow and tall with timber floors on shared party walls. Footfall and speech travel down and sideways, which is why a resilient layer under the finish beats anything hung on a wall.
- Listed facades, internal fixes only
On a monument you cannot change the outside and often cannot change the structure. Everything has to be done from the inside, shallow, and ideally reversible.
- Venue noise limits are enforced
Amsterdam operators live with real decibel and low frequency conditions on their permits, and the low end is what gets them into trouble. Containment is not optional here, it is the licence.
- Recycled content gets asked first
Our PET felt is made from recycled bottle flake. In Dutch tenders that question comes before the acoustic one, and it is the easiest one for us to answer honestly.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Church buildings, civic halls and converted industrial spaces have long decay times and hard surfaces throughout.
- The housing stock
Narrow terraced houses and canal buildings share party walls, with timber floors upstairs and concrete below. Neighbours on both sides is the default condition.
If you are specifying for a Amsterdam project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
The Amsterdam climate decides the material list
Amsterdam is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.
The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
If the visual is fixed and the room still has to perform, that is a solvable problem and a conversation worth having early. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
Supply into Amsterdam, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Rotterdam, then a short road run into the city |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Rotterdam |
| Packing | Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we tell you that before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Rotterdam, then road into Amsterdam. Being close to the port keeps the inland cost low. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export.
| Carpet tiles | 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m |
|---|---|
| Rugs | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg.

The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Amsterdam certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Amsterdam: questions we are actually asked
Are these acoustic carpet and rugs made in Amsterdam?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Amsterdam as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Rotterdam, roughly eighty kilometres from the city, so the inland leg stays short and the landed cost stays predictable. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Amsterdam enquiry?
Seventeenth century houses were built narrow and tall with timber floors on shared party walls. Footfall and speech travel down and sideways, which is why a resilient layer under the finish beats anything hung on a wall. On a monument you cannot change the outside and often cannot change the structure. Everything has to be done from the inside, shallow, and ideally reversible. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Amsterdam conditions?
Amsterdam is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
How does an order actually travel to Amsterdam?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Rotterdam, then a short road run into the city, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we tell you that before you order, not after.
What should you not buy acoustic carpet and rugs for?
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
The same minimums apply on export. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m. Rugs, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg. Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
