Manufactured in India, supplied in Atlanta
Soundproofing materials in Atlanta
We manufacture soundproofing materials at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Atlanta. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Savannah, then road to Atlanta, with the inland leg written into the dates we quote.

- 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 material is and where it earns its place in Atlanta
The blocking side of the range taken together: mass loaded vinyl, resilient layers, cavity absorption and the build-ups they belong in. This is the page for someone whose problem is noise getting through, not a room that sounds wrong.
Work reaching us from Atlanta is mostly production stages, edit and mix rooms, offices, schools, clinics, restaurants, home theatres.
American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.
- Independent leaf A second wall that does not touch the first. Nothing else comes close for the money.
- Resilient bar Where a full independent leaf will not fit. Effective, and very easy to short circuit with one wrong screw.
- Floating floor Resilient layer and deck, to break impact energy before it reaches the structure.
- What it will not do Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our soundproofing materials are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Atlanta.

02 / Specification sheet
One specification sheet, the same in every market
We publish one data sheet for every market. If a supplier quotes you a different figure for the same product in a different city, one of the two numbers is wrong.
- Light retrofit2.5 mm membrane. Where depth is not available
- Standard partition4 mm membrane on an independent leaf. The common specification
- Heavy6 mm membrane and full decoupling. Plant, machine enclosure, low frequency

On a Atlanta 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 Atlanta briefs
- Savannah, then the road
The container lands at the coast and drives in. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately so the programme is built on real dates.
- Production rooms have no tolerance
A mix room or a stage either isolates or it does not. There is no partial credit, which is why we design the shell before anyone chooses a fabric colour.
- Warehouse conversions
Big metal and concrete shells make superb volume and terrible acoustics. Rain on a metal deck and traffic outside both get in, and the inside is completely live.
- Light frame residential
Homes and apartments here are gypsum on studs, which passes low frequency far more easily than masonry. Added mass and a decoupled layer do the work, not absorption.
- Plant and HVAC
Packaged rooftop units and ducted forced air are standard, so noise arrives through the duct rather than through the wall. Lining the first three metres of duct and treating the return path is usually the whole job.
- The housing stock
American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.
If you are specifying for a Atlanta project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
The Atlanta climate decides the material list
Atlanta is hot dry summers and mild wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing.
The risk we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
What the route into Atlanta actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Savannah, then road to Atlanta |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Savannah |
| Packing | Rolls on core tubes, boards palletised, fixings and tapes listed on the same packing list. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for stock items. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg to the US East Coast is long, so plan the full door to door window. We give real dates rather than optimistic ones.
Sea freight into Savannah, then road to Atlanta. Air freight for samples, colour approvals and genuinely urgent quantities.
06 / Before you buy
What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall. We would rather spend the conversation on the detail than on the product.
-
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 Atlanta certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

Atlanta: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture soundproofing materials in Atlanta?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Atlanta as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Savannah, then road to Atlanta, with the inland leg written into the dates we quote. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Atlanta project?
A mix room or a stage either isolates or it does not. There is no partial credit, which is why we design the shell before anyone chooses a fabric colour. Big metal and concrete shells make superb volume and terrible acoustics. Rain on a metal deck and traffic outside both get in, and the inside is completely live. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Atlanta climate?
Atlanta is hot dry summers and mild wet winters. The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing. The failure we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
What is the delivery time into Atlanta?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Savannah, then road to Atlanta, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg to the US East Coast is long, so plan the full door to door window. We give real dates rather than optimistic ones.
When are soundproofing materials the wrong purchase?
Soundproofing fails at the gaps, not the materials. A service penetration, a back to back socket, or a door undercut will undo a correctly built wall. We would rather spend the conversation on the detail than on the product.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
Minimum order is confirmed with the quote. Rolls on core tubes, boards palletised, fixings and tapes listed on the same packing list.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
