We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Dehradun brief
A rigid non-woven panel pressed from 100% polyester fibre, a large part of it recycled. It absorbs mid and high frequency energy and finishes as the visible surface, so it is both the acoustic layer and the finish.
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.
- Direct to wall Panel bonded or mechanically fixed flat to the substrate. Simplest, and the weakest at low frequency.
- On a 25 to 50 mm air gap The same panel on battens. The air gap moves absorption down in frequency at no extra material cost, and is the cheapest improvement available.
- Over a porous backing Panel over mineral or PET backing where the room needs genuine low mid control.
- What it will not do It absorbs. It does not block.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for PET felt panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Dehradun.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, classrooms, general commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Studios, auditoria, rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Dehradun 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 we see driving Dehradun briefs
- 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
The Dehradun climate decides the material list
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 / Supply
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 | Palletised flat and film wrapped, cut sheets interleaved. Packing list and weights issued with the quote. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard colours and thicknesses. Grooved and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order. |
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.
From 10 panels for 9 mm EchoCore 15. Other grades and thicknesses carry their own minimum.
| 9 mm EchoCore 15, 1500 GSM | 10 panels, 320 sq ft |
|---|---|
| 9 mm EchoPro 18, 1800 GSM | 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft |
| 9 mm EchoMax 22, 2200 GSM | 100 panels, 3,200 sq ft |

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
It absorbs. It does not block. A PET panel on a shared wall will make the room sound better and will not stop the neighbour being heard. If the brief is stopping noise passing through a wall or floor, the answer is mass and decoupling, and we will say so before quoting.
-
Coverage bought instead of a target
Lining every surface is a purchase, not a result. We would rather calculate the area against a reverberation target and sell you less of it.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Dehradun certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Dehradun: questions we are actually asked
Where are the PET felt acoustic panels you supply to Dehradun actually made?
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 do you look at first on a Dehradun enquiry?
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.
How does the Dehradun climate affect this product?
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.
What will PET felt acoustic panels not do?
It absorbs. It does not block. A PET panel on a shared wall will make the room sound better and will not stop the neighbour being heard. If the brief is stopping noise passing through a wall or floor, the answer is mass and decoupling, and we will say so before quoting.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
From 10 panels for 9 mm EchoCore 15. Other grades and thicknesses carry their own minimum. 9 mm EchoCore 15, 1500 GSM, 10 panels, 320 sq ft. 9 mm EchoPro 18, 1800 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft. 9 mm EchoMax 22, 2200 GSM, 100 panels, 3,200 sq ft. 12 mm, 2400 GSM, 30 panels, 960 sq ft. 18 mm, 3000 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft. 24 mm, 3600 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft.
