Wood wool acoustic panels in Bhubaneswar
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Bhubaneswar. Bhubaneswar is a planned institutional city near a cyclone coast, so the buildings are new and the climate is hard on the wrong material.

Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / The material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Bhubaneswar
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
Work reaching us from Bhubaneswar is mostly IT and institutional campuses, hospitals, colleges, auditoriums, hotels, offices.
RC frame apartments and houses with hard floors, built for heat and heavy monsoon along a cyclone exposed coast.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Bhubaneswar.
02 / Specification sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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.
- Natural20 mm. Plant rooms, back of house, industrial
- Painted20 mm. Classrooms, halls, visible ceilings
| Panel size | 1200 x 600 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 20 mm |

| NRC | 0.30 |
| Test standards | ASTM C-423 and EN ISO 354 |
| Surface burning | Class A to ASTM E84 |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Bhubaneswar project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

What the buildings in Bhubaneswar do to the specification
- Coastal humidity and cyclones
PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- New campuses at scale
The same classroom or office detail repeated across many blocks. Consistency across the order is where the value is.
- Teaching and assembly rooms
Large halls in concrete and tile that defeat the speaker long before anyone calls the room echoey.
- Three to four days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, confirmed before dispatch, with samples sent ahead.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Auditoriums, banquet halls and places of worship are large hard volumes in concrete and stone where speech falls apart long before anyone calls the room echoey.
- School and campus buildings
New university and school campuses in concrete and tile, with lecture halls and hostels repeating the same detail.
If you are specifying for a Bhubaneswar project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Bhubaneswar climate decides the material list
Bhubaneswar 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 / Supply
What the route into Bhubaneswar actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | three to four days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | three to four days |
| Packing | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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 fifteen hundred kilometres, normally three to four days on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
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 Bhubaneswar
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.
Bhubaneswar: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Bhubaneswar 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 Bhubaneswar as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Bhubaneswar is a planned institutional city near a cyclone coast, so the buildings are new and the climate is hard on the wrong material. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Bhubaneswar build-up differ from anywhere else?
The same classroom or office detail repeated across many blocks. Consistency across the order is where the value is. PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Bhubaneswar climate affect this product?
Bhubaneswar 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.
When would material land on a Bhubaneswar site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: three to four 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 wood wool acoustic panels for?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.
