Manufactured in India, supplied in Czechia
Soundproof curtains in Czechia
We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Czechia. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Hamburg, then rail and road inland, with container pricing that suits the way Czech projects buy.

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 product
What this material is and where it earns its place in Czechia
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 Czechia is mostly production halls, plant rooms, offices, panel block apartments, schools, clinics.
Panel block housing has concrete walls with good mass but no impact isolation, while older masonry stock has timber floors that pass footfall.
- 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 Czechia.
02 / Specification
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.
- Standard5.5 kg per sq m. Openings, stages, temporary partitions

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Czechia project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What the buildings in Czechia do to the specification
- Panel block apartments
Prefabricated concrete panel housing passes speech and footfall between flats through thin, well connected elements. Surface treatment does nothing here. Mass and a resilient break do.
- Industrial noise is a mass problem
Compressors, presses and extraction plant are low frequency and structure-borne. We will tell you when absorption is the wrong purchase rather than sell it to you.
- Value is checked properly
Czech buyers compare specifications line by line. That suits a manufacturer, because we can answer for what is actually in the product.
- Landlocked, so plan the inland leg
Hamburg then rail and road. We quote the sea leg and the inland leg separately so the programme is built on real dates.
- The housing stock
Panel block housing has concrete walls with good mass but no impact isolation, while older masonry stock has timber floors that pass footfall.
- The studio and content scene
A strong recording tradition, with rooms fitted into older buildings where the structure helps and the surfaces do not.
For a Czechia practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
The Czechia climate decides the material list
Czechia 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.
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 Czechia, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Hamburg, then rail and road inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Hamburg |
| 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 Hamburg, then rail and road inland. 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 / Worth knowing
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
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.

A claim of being local to Czechia
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.
Czechia: questions we are actually asked
Where are the soundproof curtains you supply to Czechia actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Czechia as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Hamburg, then rail and road inland, with container pricing that suits the way Czech projects buy. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Czechia enquiry?
Prefabricated concrete panel housing passes speech and footfall between flats through thin, well connected elements. Surface treatment does nothing here. Mass and a resilient break do. Compressors, presses and extraction plant are low frequency and structure-borne. We will tell you when absorption is the wrong purchase rather than sell it to you. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Czechia conditions?
Czechia 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.
How quickly can material reach a site in Czechia?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Hamburg, then rail and road inland, 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
Send the drawings, get a straight answer
A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
