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 / The material

What this is, and what it changes in a Germany room

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 Germany is mostly offices, studios, clubs, hotels, schools, clinics, industrial plant rooms.

Altbau blocks have solid masonry walls and timber joist floors, so airborne noise is controlled but footfall is not. Neubau is concrete with better floors and much harder surfaces.

  • 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 Germany.

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, classrooms, general commercial
  • EchoPro 181800 GSM. Studios, auditoria, rooms with a written RT target
  • EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

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 Germany

  • Two building stocks

    Altbau apartments with timber floors pass noise between homes. Post-war concrete holds it in and rings. The same room needs a different answer depending on which one you are in.

  • Specified acoustics

    Most German jobs arrive with an acoustician already involved. Send us the target values and we will tell you which build-up gets there, and which one will not.

  • Container quantities

    Fit-outs across several floors or sites are cheaper by container. We quote full loads and stage deliveries against your programme.

  • Winter build programmes

    Sealed, insulated rooms sound dead in the wrong way. Absorption has to be balanced, not maximised, once the envelope is tight.

  • School and campus buildings

    School and university buildings are built to a high thermal standard with hard, cleanable surfaces. Speech clarity in classrooms and long corridors is where the acoustic budget goes.

If you are specifying for a Germany project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate

The Germany climate decides the material list

Germany 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.

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.

200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load, because the price per panel and the freight per panel both fall sharply and a part load pays for space it does not use.

A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.

06 / Straight talk

Where this goes wrong, said plainly

  • 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 Germany certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

FAQ

Germany: questions we are actually asked

Where are the PET felt acoustic panels you supply to Germany actually made?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Germany as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped in container loads to German sites, specified against your drawings before anything leaves the factory. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What changes the specification on a Germany job?

Altbau apartments with timber floors pass noise between homes. Post-war concrete holds it in and rings. The same room needs a different answer depending on which one you are in. Most German jobs arrive with an acoustician already involved. Send us the target values and we will tell you which build-up gets there, and which one will not. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Is this the right material for Germany conditions?

Germany 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.

What is the delivery time into Germany?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Hamburg or Bremerhaven, then road to site, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order.

Where do PET felt acoustic panels fail to help?

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.

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, because the price per panel and the freight per panel both fall sharply and a part load pays for space it does not use. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container, for the best price per panel and the lowest freight per panel. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped, cut sheets interleaved. Packing list and weights issued with the quote.
