Manufactured in India, supplied in Daman
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Daman
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Daman. Daman is industrial units and coastal hospitality side by side, with salt air working against both.
- 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
We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.
01 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Daman brief
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 Daman is mostly industrial units, hotels and bars, restaurants, offices, schools, clinics.
RC frame housing and worker accommodation with hard floors, close to industrial estates.
- 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 Daman.

02 / Specification
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

03 / In this market
What we see driving Daman briefs
- Industry beside hospitality
Plant noise leaving a unit and music leaving a bar are the same containment problem with different sources.
- Late trading under rooms
Bars operating beneath guest accommodation, where low frequency containment decides the hours.
- Salt air and monsoon
PET felt does not absorb moisture, rot or corrode, which matters where mineral products sag within a season.
- Three days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, confirmed before dispatch, with samples ahead of the order.
- School and campus buildings
Classrooms are concrete and tile with bare walls and high ceilings, and class sizes push levels up. Corridors act as reverberation chambers that feed every room off them.
Architects working in Daman 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 / Conditions
The Daman climate decides the material list
Daman 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.
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 / Getting it there
Supply into Daman, start to site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | three days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | three days |
| 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 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 twelve hundred kilometres, normally three days on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together.

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.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
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.
-
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 Daman
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.
Daman: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Daman 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 Daman as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Daman is industrial units and coastal hospitality side by side, with salt air working against both. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Daman build-up differ from anywhere else?
Plant noise leaving a unit and music leaving a bar are the same containment problem with different sources. Bars operating beneath guest accommodation, where low frequency containment decides the hours. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Daman weather shorten the life of this material?
Daman 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.
When would material land on a Daman site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: three 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 ceiling baffles and clouds for?
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.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together. 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.

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.
