01 / Start here
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Berlin
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 Berlin is mostly altbau flats, studios, clubs, startup offices, schools, clinics.
Altbau blocks have solid masonry walls and timber joist floors, so airborne noise is controlled but footfall is not. Neubau is concrete with better floors and much harder surfaces.
- 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 Berlin.
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.
- 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 |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Berlin project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
The Berlin conditions that change the answer
- Altbau floors
Timber joists with fill between them pass footfall and speech. Adding mass and a resilient layer works better than anything fixed to the ceiling underneath.
- Club and live venues
Berlin nightlife runs long hours beside housing. Low frequency containment is the whole job, and it is structural, not decorative.
- Courtyard buildings
Hinterhof layouts bounce plant noise and voices between facing windows, which turns one noisy unit into a block wide problem.
- Cold winters, sealed rooms
Tight, well insulated rooms sound dead in the wrong way. Balanced absorption matters as much as isolation.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Concert halls, church buildings and civic Saal spaces are long-reverberation rooms where any intervention has to be reversible and visually disciplined.
- The housing stock
Altbau blocks have solid masonry walls and timber joist floors, so airborne noise is controlled but footfall is not. Neubau is concrete with better floors and much harder surfaces.
For a Berlin practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Berlin changes the material, not the target
Berlin 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.
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 / Logistics
Getting it to Berlin, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Hamburg or Bremerhaven |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Hamburg |
| 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 and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order.
Sea freight into Hamburg or Bremerhaven, then road to Berlin. 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.
06 / Worth knowing
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
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.
-
A number chased without a measurement
If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Berlin certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Berlin: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs in Berlin?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Berlin as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, packed for container transit, specified against your drawings before anything ships. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Berlin job?
Timber joists with fill between them pass footfall and speech. Adding mass and a resilient layer works better than anything fixed to the ceiling underneath. Berlin nightlife runs long hours beside housing. Low frequency containment is the whole job, and it is structural, not decorative. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Berlin weather shorten the life of this material?
Berlin 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.
When would material land on a Berlin site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Hamburg or Bremerhaven, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order.
When are acoustic carpet and rugs the wrong purchase?
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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
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.
