01 / The material
What this is, and what it changes in a China room
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 China is mostly specification-led projects, international hotel and office fit-out, studios, showrooms.
Reinforced concrete towers with block infill and hard floors. Mass is good, impact noise through the slab and between flats is the complaint.
- 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.
Full specification
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 China.
02 / Specification sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- Standard5.5 kg per sq m. Openings, stages, temporary partitions

Consultants get the raw data, not a sales sheet. That is the whole of our side of the job, and it is set out under working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
What the buildings in China do to the specification
- We are not the default here
Domestic supply is abundant and competitive. We are worth importing when the specification, the colour consistency or the supply chain is the reason, not the price.
- Concrete towers, hard interiors
The structure blocks well, so the recurring problems are live rooms and impact passing down through slabs.
- Colour across a large order
Where a single project runs across many floors, batch to batch consistency is usually the reason people come to a single manufacturer.
- Well served ports
Shanghai, Ningbo and Shenzhen all run frequently from India, so routing is straightforward.
- The housing stock
Reinforced concrete towers with block infill and hard floors. Mass is good, impact noise through the slab and between flats is the complaint.
- The studio and content scene
A very large production, gaming and content sector, with rooms built inside commercial and industrial shells.
If you are specifying for a China project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
Durability in China, before acoustics is discussed
China 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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Getting it there
Supply into China, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Shanghai, Ningbo or Shenzhen, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Shanghai or Ningbo |
| 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 Shanghai, Ningbo or Shenzhen, then road to site. 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.
06 / Read this first
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 China certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
China: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture soundproof curtains in China?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into China as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Shanghai, Ningbo or Shenzhen. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a China project?
Domestic supply is abundant and competitive. We are worth importing when the specification, the colour consistency or the supply chain is the reason, not the price. The structure blocks well, so the recurring problems are live rooms and impact passing down through slabs. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for China conditions?
China 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.
What is the delivery time into China?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Shanghai, Ningbo or Shenzhen, 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.
Where do soundproof curtains fail to help?
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.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
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
Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out
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.
