Acoustic carpet and rugs in Dallas
We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Dallas. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Houston and trucked north, with air freight through DFW when a date genuinely will not move.

01 / Start here
The product, described honestly, for a Dallas brief
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. It absorbs at the floor and, more usefully, kills footfall and chair scrape at the point they are generated.
Work reaching us from Dallas is mostly corporate campuses, multifamily, schools, clinics, restaurants, home theatres, studios.
American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.
- Loose lay on tackifier Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
- Over a resilient underlay Where impact noise to the floor below is the actual complaint, the underlay does that work, not the carpet.
- Zoned Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
- What it will not do Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic carpet and rugs are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Dallas.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- Standard tile4 mm. Offices, classrooms, studios, corridors
| Tile size | 500 x 500 mm |

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Dallas 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 the buildings in Dallas do to the specification
- Campus scale repetition
A corporate campus means the same detail across many floors and buildings. The value is in consistent material and a build-up that is easy for a crew to repeat correctly.
- Multifamily party walls
Apartments built in light frame share a wall that has far less mass than people expect. Neighbour complaints here are a mass and decoupling problem, and treating the room will not fix them.
- Programmes that will not slip
Fast build schedules leave no room for a container arriving late. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately so you can see where the time actually goes.
- Big rooms, big systems
Dedicated home theatres here are larger than most, which makes low frequency control the main event rather than an afterthought.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Churches, school gyms and multipurpose halls double as performance spaces, which means a room designed for neither speech nor music has to carry both.
- The housing stock
American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.
If you are specifying for a Dallas project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
Durability in Dallas, before acoustics is discussed
Dallas is hot dry summers and mild wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing.
The risk we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
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 / Supply
How material reaches a Dallas site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Port of Houston, then road north to Dallas |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea, or air into DFW |
| Packing | Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Add the sea leg to Houston and the road leg north, and plan the full window into the programme. We quote it in the open.
Sea freight into the Port of Houston, then road to Dallas. Air freight into DFW for samples, colour approvals and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export.
| Carpet tiles | 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m |
|---|---|
| Rugs | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
-
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.
-
A claim of being local to Dallas
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.
Dallas: questions we are actually asked
Are these acoustic carpet and rugs made in Dallas?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Dallas as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Houston and trucked north, with air freight through DFW when a date genuinely will not move. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Dallas build-up differ from anywhere else?
Apartments built in light frame share a wall that has far less mass than people expect. Neighbour complaints here are a mass and decoupling problem, and treating the room will not fix them. A corporate campus means the same detail across many floors and buildings. The value is in consistent material and a build-up that is easy for a crew to repeat correctly. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Dallas weather shorten the life of this material?
Dallas is hot dry summers and mild wet winters. The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing. The failure we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
How quickly can material reach a site in Dallas?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Port of Houston, then road north to Dallas, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Add the sea leg to Houston and the road leg north, and plan the full window into the programme. We quote it in the open.
What will acoustic carpet and rugs not do?
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
The same minimums apply on export. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m. Rugs, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg. Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
