Manufactured in India, supplied in Bhopal
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Bhopal
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Bhopal. Bhopal is government, education and healthcare, which means a steady stream of large rooms where a lot of people need to hear one voice.
- Material
- 100% PET non-woven, the panel family
- 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
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 / The material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Bhopal
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 Bhopal is mostly government and institutional buildings, colleges, hospitals, auditoriums, offices, hotels.
RC frame apartments and independent houses with stone and tile floors, in a dry climate with dusty summers.
- 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 Bhopal.

02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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 Bhopal project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What we see driving Bhopal briefs
- Lakes and humidity
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters through a humid season in a sealed room.
- Rooms built for listening
Assembly halls and lecture theatres in hard finishes defeat the speaker long before anyone calls the room echoey.
- New institutional build
Concrete and tile put up quickly, with the acoustic problem discovered at handover rather than designed out.
- Medical privacy
Consult and counselling rooms where conversations have to stay in the room. Partition and door before panel.
- School and campus buildings
Large school and college campuses in concrete and tile with halls used for assembly and examinations.
If you are specifying for a Bhopal project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Bhopal climate decides the material list
Bhopal is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
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 / Getting it there
Supply into Bhopal, start to site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two days |
| Packing | Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing. |
| Lead time | Confirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
By road from Palwal, roughly seven hundred kilometres, normally two days on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together.

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 / Read this first
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
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.
-
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 Bhopal certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Bhopal: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Bhopal 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 Bhopal as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Bhopal is government, education and healthcare, which means a steady stream of large rooms where a lot of people need to hear one voice. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Bhopal build-up differ from anywhere else?
Assembly halls and lecture theatres in hard finishes defeat the speaker long before anyone calls the room echoey. Concrete and tile put up quickly, with the acoustic problem discovered at handover rather than designed out. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Bhopal weather shorten the life of this material?
Bhopal is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
When would material land on a Bhopal site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two days, dispatch: 2 to 4 working days. Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. 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?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together. 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.
