Manufactured in India, supplied in Bangkok
Soundproof curtains in Bangkok
We manufacture soundproof curtains 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.

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 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Bangkok brief
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
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.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Bangkok.
02 / Data sheet
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.

On a Bangkok job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What the buildings in Bangkok do to the specification
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- The housing stock
Concrete frame with block infill and hard tile floors throughout. Condominium party walls and slabs pass impact noise directly.
- The studio and content scene
A large content and music production scene works out of rooms inside commercial buildings with thin partitions.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
What the Bangkok climate rules in and rules out
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.
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
Getting it to Bangkok, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Laem Chabang, then a short road run into Bangkok |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Laem Chabang |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
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 5 piece minimum applies on export.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.

The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
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 Bangkok certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Bangkok: questions we are actually asked
Are these soundproof curtains made in Bangkok?
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.
What changes the specification on a Bangkok job?
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.
Is this the right material for Bangkok conditions?
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.
What should you not buy soundproof curtains for?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.
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.
