Manufactured in India, supplied in Denver
Acoustic panels in Denver
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Denver. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Houston or the West Coast and trucked inland, with the road leg quoted separately so the programme runs on real dates.

- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Denver job
The full absorber range rather than one product: plain PET felt, printed felt, grooved panels and fabric finishes, chosen by how the room is used and how it has to look.
Work reaching us from Denver is mostly multifamily apartments, offices, breweries and taprooms, schools, clinics, home theatres.
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.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Denver.

02 / The numbers
One specification sheet, the same in every market
Nothing below changes by location. The decisions that do change are grade, thickness and how the material is mounted, and those are covered further down.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

03 / In this market
What we see driving Denver briefs
- Taprooms and hard rooms
Breweries and taprooms are concrete, steel and glass by design. They are loud by construction, not by accident, and the ceiling plane is usually the only place to fix it.
- Light frame multifamily at volume
Thousands of units built to the same separating detail. If the detail underperforms it underperforms everywhere, which makes it worth solving on the drawing.
- No port, so plan the road leg
Everything arrives at a coast and drives in. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately so you can see where the time goes.
- Dry air, sealed buildings
Our PET felt does not shed fibre or degrade in dry conditions, and it holds its shape in rooms that stay closed and conditioned.
- School and campus buildings
Public school buildings run long corridors with hard floors and lay-in tile ceilings that were chosen for cost, not for speech. Classroom reverberation and corridor spill are the two complaints, and both respond to ceiling area rather than wall panels.
- The studio and content scene
Home and project studios go into basements and converted garages with equipment budgets far ahead of the building. The room leaks to the floor above long before it sounds wrong inside.
Architects working in Denver 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 / Durability
What the Denver climate rules in and rules out
Denver is mild summers and cold, wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air.
The risk we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new 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 / Logistics
Getting it to Denver, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Houston or the West Coast, then road inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea, then road inland |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.
Sea freight into Houston or the West Coast, then road inland to Denver. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.
06 / Straight talk
What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.
-
Suppliers who imply a Denver 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.

The product on finished jobs
Denver: questions we are actually asked
Where are the acoustic panels you supply to Denver actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Denver as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Houston or the West Coast and trucked inland, with the road leg quoted separately so the programme runs on real dates. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Denver enquiry?
Thousands of units built to the same separating detail. If the detail underperforms it underperforms everywhere, which makes it worth solving on the drawing. Breweries and taprooms are concrete, steel and glass by design. They are loud by construction, not by accident, and the ceiling plane is usually the only place to fix it. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Denver conditions?
Denver is mild summers and cold, wet winters. Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air. The failure we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new linings.
When would material land on a Denver site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Houston or the West Coast, then road inland, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.
What will acoustic panels not do?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.
