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 material, and what it actually does on a Dehradun job

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 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.

  • 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.

02 / Specification

Published specification, identical wherever we ship it

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.

On a Dehradun job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.

03 / On the ground

The Dehradun conditions that change the answer

  • 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.

  • The housing stock

    RC frame houses and hotels built on slopes, with hard floors and cold external walls in the hill towns.

  • The studio and content scene

    Very little purpose built studio work. Most demand is hotel entertainment space and small content rooms inside existing hillside buildings.

We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. 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.

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.

PackingRolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.
Lead timeMade to size. Confirmed at quote.

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.

Any size5 pieces

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.

06 / Straight talk

Where this goes wrong, said plainly

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Suppliers who imply a Dehradun presence

    Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.

FAQ

Dehradun: questions we are actually asked

Do you manufacture soundproof curtains in Dehradun?

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.

Why would a Dehradun build-up differ from anywhere else?

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.

Is this the right material for Dehradun conditions?

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.

When would material land on a Dehradun site?

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.

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.

Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?

5 curtains. 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.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up

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.
