Manufactured in India, supplied in Cambodia
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Cambodia
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Cambodia. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Sihanoukville, then road to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap.
- 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
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 / The material
What this is, and what it changes in a Cambodia room
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 Cambodia is mostly garment and manufacturing units, hotels, offices, schools, hospitals, restaurants.
Concrete frame with block infill, shophouses and new condominium towers, all with hard floors and shared walls.
- 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 Cambodia.

02 / Specification sheet
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
| Material | 100% PET non-woven, the panel family |

If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What we see driving Cambodia briefs
- Tropical humidity
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which decides whether a ceiling survives more than a couple of seasons.
- Generators are part of the building
Standby generation runs often enough to be a permanent condition and sits close to occupied space. Enclosure at the source is the only real fix.
- Garment floors at scale
Large production halls with continuous machine noise and rooms where instructions and alarms must be understood.
- Hospitality in heritage towns
Hotel work where guest room isolation and function room acoustics are the recurring briefs.
- School and campus buildings
Classrooms are hard and naturally ventilated, open to street and corridor noise.
Architects working in Cambodia usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
Why the climate in Cambodia changes the material, not the target
Cambodia 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 / Logistics
Getting it to Cambodia, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Sihanoukville, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Sihanoukville |
| 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 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Sihanoukville, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
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.
06 / Before you buy
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.
-
Coverage bought instead of a target
Lining every surface is a purchase, not a result. We would rather calculate the area against a reverberation target and sell you less of it.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Cambodia certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Cambodia: questions we are actually asked
Are these ceiling baffles and clouds made in Cambodia?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Cambodia as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Sihanoukville, then road to Phnom Penh or Siem Reap. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Cambodia project?
Standby generation runs often enough to be a permanent condition and sits close to occupied space. Enclosure at the source is the only real fix. Large production halls with continuous machine noise and rooms where instructions and alarms must be understood. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Cambodia conditions?
Cambodia 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 Cambodia?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Sihanoukville, then road to site, 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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
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.
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.
