Manufactured in India, supplied in Denver
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Denver
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds 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.

- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / Start here
The material, and what it actually does on a Denver job
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 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.
- 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 Denver.

02 / Data sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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
| Material | 100% PET non-woven, the panel family |

Consultants get the raw data, not a sales sheet. That is the whole of our side of the job, and it is set out under working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What decides the build-up in Denver
- 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.
If you are specifying for a Denver project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. 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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
What the route into Denver actually looks like
| 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 | 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 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.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| 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.

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.
-
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.

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.
Denver: questions we are actually asked
Are these ceiling baffles and clouds made in Denver?
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 changes the specification on a Denver job?
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.
Will this material last in the Denver climate?
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.
What is the delivery time into Denver?
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 ceiling baffles and clouds 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.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. 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.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
