Acoustic hanging ceiling baffles in a large open space

Manufactured in India, supplied in Bali

Ceiling baffles and clouds in Bali

We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Bali. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Surabaya or Benoa, then road or inter-island onward to site.

Material

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

This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.

01 / The material

What this is, and what it changes in a Bali 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 Bali is mostly resorts and villas, beach clubs and restaurants, spas, offices, guest rooms.

Concrete frame with block infill in cities, timber and light construction outside them. Apartment stock shares walls and slabs that were never detailed for two households.

  • 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 Bali.

02 / The numbers

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.

  • EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
  • EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
  • EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.

03 / In this market

What we see driving Bali briefs

  • Humidity and salt destroy the wrong material

    PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or feed mould. Mineral products sag here within a single season.

  • Buildings that are only partly enclosed

    Open pavilions and sliding walls mean there is often no envelope to isolate. The honest answer is treating what is there and telling you what cannot be fixed.

  • Beach clubs and neighbours

    Late trading venues beside villas and other resorts, where containment of low frequency is what keeps the operation on good terms.

  • An onward leg to the island

    Material arrives and then continues by road or ferry. Tell us and we pack for the second journey.

  • School and campus buildings

    Classrooms are hard, naturally ventilated and open to corridor and street noise, so absorption alone will not fix intelligibility.

Architects working in Bali 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 / Climate and durability

What the Bali climate rules in and rules out

Bali is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.

Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them.

The risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.

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

How material reaches a Bali site

Supply into Bali
Ships fromPalwal, Haryana, India
Arrives atSurabaya or Benoa, then road to site
Dispatch4 to 7 working days
FreightSea via Surabaya or Benoa
PackingFlat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing.
Lead timeConfirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 4 to 7 working days.

Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.

Sea freight into Surabaya or Benoa, then road or ferry onward to site. Air freight for samples.

The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.

Minimum order, ceiling baffles and clouds
Baffles and clouds500 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.

06 / Before you buy

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.

  • Local approvals that nobody actually holds

    We hold no Bali certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

FAQ

Bali: questions we are actually asked

Are these ceiling baffles and clouds made in Bali?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Bali as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Surabaya or Benoa, then road or inter-island onward to site. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What do you look at first on a Bali enquiry?

Open pavilions and sliding walls mean there is often no envelope to isolate. The honest answer is treating what is there and telling you what cannot be fixed. Late trading venues beside villas and other resorts, where containment of low frequency is what keeps the operation on good terms. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Is this the right material for Bali conditions?

Bali is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them. The failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.

What is the delivery time into Bali?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Surabaya or Benoa, then road to site, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.

What should you not buy ceiling baffles and clouds for?

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.

What is the minimum order and how is it packed?

The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. 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.

Next step

Tell us the room, we will tell you the 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.
