Acoustic hanging ceiling baffles in a large open space

Manufactured in India, supplied in Bangkok

Ceiling baffles and clouds in Bangkok

We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Bangkok. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Laem Chabang, roughly two hours from the city by road.

Exposure
Both faces work, which is why suspended area outperforms the same area laid flat
Test standard

  • ASTM C423
  • Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
  • One batch across the order, no blending between runs

We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.

01 / Start here

The material, and what it actually does on a Bangkok job

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 Bangkok is mostly condo towers, hotels and lounges, offices, restaurants, clinics, studios.

Concrete frame with block infill and hard tile floors throughout. Condominium party walls and slabs pass impact noise directly.

  • 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 Bangkok.

02 / The numbers

Published specification, identical wherever we ship it

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.

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

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Bangkok project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

03 / On the ground

What the buildings in Bangkok do to the specification

  • Concrete towers, live interiors

    The structure blocks a lot already. The problem is tile, glass and stone inside making the room ring, and that is a treatment job.

  • Heat and humidity all year

    Our PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag in a tropical climate.

  • Elevated rail and traffic

    Trains and traffic close to facades put noise in through glazing, not through the wall. Fix the window path first.

  • Impact through slabs

    Hard flooring over concrete passes footfall straight down. A resilient underlay before the finish is the fix.

  • School and campus buildings

    Classrooms are hard and naturally ventilated, open to traffic and corridor noise, with large class sizes pushing levels up.

If you are specifying for a Bangkok 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

Durability in Bangkok, before acoustics is discussed

Bangkok 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

Supply into Bangkok, start to site

Supply into Bangkok
Ships fromPalwal, Haryana, India
Arrives atLaem Chabang, then a short road run into Bangkok
Dispatch4 to 7 working days
FreightSea via Laem Chabang
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 Laem Chabang, then a short road run into Bangkok. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.

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 / Straight talk

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.

  • A claim of being local to Bangkok

    We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.

FAQ

Bangkok: questions we are actually asked

Is there a Bangkok 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 Bangkok as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Laem Chabang, roughly two hours from the city by road. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

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

The structure blocks a lot already. The problem is tile, glass and stone inside making the room ring, and that is a treatment job. Trains and traffic close to facades put noise in through glazing, not through the wall. Fix the window path first. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Does Bangkok weather shorten the life of this material?

Bangkok 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.

How quickly can material reach a site in Bangkok?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Laem Chabang, then a short road run into Bangkok, 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.

When are ceiling baffles and clouds the wrong purchase?

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 quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?

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.
