Manufactured in India, supplied in Finland
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Finland
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Finland. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Helsinki or Kotka.
- 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 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Finland 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 Finland is mostly apartments, offices, schools, healthcare, timber buildings, studios, auditoriums.
Concrete apartment blocks and timber housing with very tight envelopes and hard internal surfaces.
- 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 Finland.

02 / Specification sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- 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 Finland job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What the buildings in Finland do to the specification
- Targets are written and checked
Work here arrives with numbers attached and someone verifies them afterwards. Send us the target and we will say plainly what our material reaches.
- Timber construction at scale
A great deal of building is timber, which is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work rather than more absorption.
- Sealed for months
Buildings close up through a long winter with ventilation running constantly, so noise accumulates inside and plant noise matters more than street noise.
- A long sea leg
One of the longer routes we operate. Ordering to a real schedule matters, so we quote the full window rather than the port date.
- School and campus buildings
Classroom acoustics are regulated and open plan learning spaces are common, making intelligibility the target.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
What the Finland climate rules in and rules out
Finland is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.
The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
For a Finland interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
Getting it to Finland, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Helsinki or Kotka, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Helsinki |
| 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 Helsinki or Kotka, then road to site. 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.
06 / Before you buy
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.
-
A claim of being local to Finland
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.
Finland: questions we are actually asked
Where are the ceiling baffles and clouds you supply to Finland actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Finland as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Helsinki or Kotka. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Finland project?
Work here arrives with numbers attached and someone verifies them afterwards. Send us the target and we will say plainly what our material reaches. A great deal of building is timber, which is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work rather than more absorption. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Finland conditions?
Finland is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
How quickly can material reach a site in Finland?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Helsinki or Kotka, then road to site, 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 should you not buy ceiling baffles and clouds for?
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.
