Cinema and multiplex soundproofing in Ghaziabad
Screens stacked beside and above each other, each running full range at high level. Bleed between auditoria is the failure everyone hears, and it is decided by the shell, not the finishes. Banquet halls, marriage lawns and auditoria are large hard volumes where amplified speech and music run late into the night.
- Screen to screen
- Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line.
- In room response
- Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended.
- Plant and projection
- Equipment noise into the auditorium, treated at source.

What you are buying, and what it fixes in Ghaziabad
Screens stacked beside and above each other, each running full range at high level. Bleed between auditoria is the failure everyone hears, and it is decided by the shell, not the finishes.
Banquet halls, marriage lawns and auditoria are large hard volumes where amplified speech and music run late into the night.
Work reaching us from Ghaziabad is mostly builder flats and societies, factories, offices, schools, clinics, banquet halls.
- Noise comes from outside Highway traffic, industry and generators reach the flat through windows and gaps long before they come through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
- Builder flat walls are thin Standard construction shares thin brick or block between units. Adding mass is the only reliable way to stop conversation and television carrying.
- Banquet and function halls High, hard rooms used for large gatherings where speech and music both have to work. Absorption on the ceiling plane does most of it.
- Screen to screen Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for cinema soundproofing are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Ghaziabad.
02 / The build-up
How the layers stack, from the structure inwards
-
Layer 1
SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl
A limp, high density sheet that adds mass to a partition, floor or duct without adding depth. In Ghaziabad, split units, VRF outdoor banks and diesel generator sets sit close to occupied areas, often on the same terrace as a bedroom. Generator enclosure and condenser screening are the recurring jobs.
Duct and plant wrap. Membrane wrapped over the duct with a decoupling layer beneath, sealed at every lap.
-
Layer 2
Acoustic panels
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. In Ghaziabad, banquet halls, marriage lawns and auditoria are large hard volumes where amplified speech and music run late into the night.
Mixed finish. Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
-
Layer 3
PET felt acoustic panels
A rigid non-woven panel pressed from 100% polyester fibre, a large part of it recycled. In Ghaziabad, large government and private schools in concrete and tile with very large class sizes, and long open corridors that feed every classroom off them.
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.
Architects working in Ghaziabad usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.

What the buildings in Ghaziabad do to the specification
- Noise comes from outside
Highway traffic, industry and generators reach the flat through windows and gaps long before they come through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
- Builder flat walls are thin
Standard construction shares thin brick or block between units. Adding mass is the only reliable way to stop conversation and television carrying.
- Banquet and function halls
High, hard rooms used for large gatherings where speech and music both have to work. Absorption on the ceiling plane does most of it.
- Next day from the plant
Short road run means low freight cost, quick samples and easy replacement of anything damaged.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Banquet halls, marriage lawns and auditoria are large hard volumes where amplified speech and music run late into the night.

Where the money goes on a Ghaziabad project
-
Screen to screen
Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line. Highway traffic, industry and generators reach the flat through windows and gaps long before they come through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
- Soundproofing materials, 2100 kg per cubic metre. 2.5 mm STC 30 at 5.25 kg per sq m, 4 mm STC 34 at 8.4, 6 mm at 12.6
- Acoustic panels, 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing

In room response
Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended. Standard construction shares thin brick or block between units. Adding mass is the only reliable way to stop conversation and television carrying.
- Soundproofing materials, 1800 x 900 x 20 mm, 100 kg per cubic metre, NRC 0.85
- Acoustic panels, Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Acoustic carpet and rugs, Felt
-
Plant and projection
Equipment noise into the auditorium, treated at source. High, hard rooms used for large gatherings where speech and music both have to work. Absorption on the ceiling plane does most of it.
- Soundproofing materials, Mass, then decoupling, then cavity absorption, then sealing
- Acoustic panels, ASTM C423
- Acoustic carpet and rugs, 64 sq ft per pack
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
04 / Conditions
What the Ghaziabad climate rules in and rules out
Ghaziabad is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the material list before acoustics is 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 failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
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.
06 / Straight talk
The six errors that cost the most
-
A shared service void running across the wall line
Square metre for square metre the ceiling is the cheapest result in the room. Skipping it and buying wall panels instead is the most common way to overspend.
-
Treating the auditorium to fix bleed from the next screen
It sounds like a small detail until the room is finished and the complaint arrives.
-
Doors and lobbies specified late and undersized
A 6 mm undercut under a door leaves a hole the size of a brick. The wall around it is then decorative.
-
Treating it as a generic Ghaziabad job
Highway traffic, industry and generators reach the flat through windows and gaps long before they come through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
05 / Route to site
How material reaches a Ghaziabad site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | a day |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | a day |
| Support | Drawings, build-ups, BOQ and material that arrives complete |
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.
Same day or next day by road from Palwal. Small consignments go on a shared vehicle, full loads on a dedicated truck.
Questions from Ghaziabad projects
What makes cinema and multiplex soundproofing different in Ghaziabad?
Banquet halls, marriage lawns and auditoria are large hard volumes where amplified speech and music run late into the night. Highway traffic, industry and generators reach the flat through windows and gaps long before they come through the wall. Fix the weakest path first.
Where should the budget go first on a Ghaziabad project?
Screen to screen. Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line. In room response. Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended.
Do you have an office or installation team in Ghaziabad?
No. We manufacture in India and supply into Ghaziabad. We give you drawings, build-ups, a BOQ and material that arrives complete, and we will tell you plainly when a job needs a local contractor we cannot be.
How does material get to a Ghaziabad site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: a 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.
What goes wrong most often on this kind of project?
A shared service void running across the wall line. Treating the auditorium to fix bleed from the next screen.
What do you need from us to quote?
A plan, a section through the critical partition or ceiling, and what the room is for. From that we can give a build-up and a BOQ rather than a price per square foot.
Next step
Tell us the room, we will tell you the 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.
