Manufactured in India, supplied in Dehradun
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Dehradun
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Dehradun. Dehradun is a school town.
- 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 / The material
What this is, and what it changes in a Dehradun 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 Dehradun is mostly boarding schools and colleges, assembly halls, dormitories, hotels, hospitals, offices.
RC frame houses and hotels built on slopes, with hard floors and cold external walls in the hill towns.
- 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 Dehradun.

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

On a Dehradun job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What decides the build-up in Dehradun
- Classrooms defeat the teacher
Hard floors, high ceilings and hard plaster mean a teacher raises their voice all day. Absorption on the ceiling recovers most of it.
- Halls used for everything
Assembly, examinations, performances and sport in one room. The design has to work for speech first and music second.
- Dormitories
Children sleeping next to corridors and each other. Partition and door detailing does more than anything applied inside the room.
- Next day from the plant
A short run, so freight stays low and samples arrive before 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.
For a Dehradun practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
What the Dehradun climate rules in and rules out
Dehradun 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.
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 / Getting it there
What the route into Dehradun actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | next day |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | next day |
| 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 three hundred kilometres, normally next day 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.
06 / Worth knowing
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.
-
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 Dehradun
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.
Dehradun: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Dehradun 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 Dehradun as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Dehradun is a school town. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Dehradun job?
Hard floors, high ceilings and hard plaster mean a teacher raises their voice all day. Absorption on the ceiling recovers most of it. Assembly, examinations, performances and sport in one room. The design has to work for speech first and music second. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Dehradun climate?
Dehradun 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 Dehradun?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: next day, 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.
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.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
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.

Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out
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.
