Soundproof curtains in Guwahati

We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Guwahati. Guwahati is the gateway to the Northeast, so a good share of what we send here continues onward to sites across the region.

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 / What it is

The product, described honestly, for a Guwahati brief

A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.

Work reaching us from Guwahati is mostly hotels, hospitals, colleges, government buildings, offices, auditoriums, houses.

RC frame and timber construction with hard floors, built for very heavy rainfall and high humidity year round.

  • Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
  • Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
  • Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
  • What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.

Full specification

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Guwahati.

02 / The numbers

One specification sheet, the same in every market

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.

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 / In this market

What decides the build-up in Guwahati

  • High humidity most of the year

    PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.

  • Seismic detailing comes first

    Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so the build-up must respect the structure rather than bridge it rigidly.

  • A gateway, not just a destination

    Material often continues into the Northeast on rougher roads. We brace and wrap for that second leg when you tell us it is happening.

  • Four days by road

    A long run, confirmed before dispatch, with samples sent ahead of the order.

  • The housing stock

    RC frame and timber construction with hard floors, built for very heavy rainfall and high humidity year round.

  • The studio and content scene

    Studios go into basements, terrace rooms and back rooms with neighbours on every side and a generator somewhere in the lane. Isolating from the building has to come before treating the room.

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

04 / Durability

Why the climate in Guwahati changes the material, not the target

Guwahati is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.

Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them.

The risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.

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

How material reaches a Guwahati site

PackingRolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.
Lead timeMade to size. Confirmed at quote.

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.

By road from Palwal, roughly nineteen hundred kilometres, normally four days on a dedicated truck.

Any size5 pieces

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.

06 / Before you buy

Four honest warnings before you buy

  • The wrong product for the problem

    A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.

  • A number chased without a measurement

    If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.

  • A claim of being local to Guwahati

    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.

FAQ

Guwahati: questions we are actually asked

Do you manufacture soundproof curtains in Guwahati?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Guwahati as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Guwahati is the gateway to the Northeast, so a good share of what we send here continues onward to sites across the region. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What changes the specification on a Guwahati job?

Buildings here are designed to move. Movement joints have to stay free, so the build-up must respect the structure rather than bridge it rigidly. Material often continues into the Northeast on rougher roads. We brace and wrap for that second leg when you tell us it is happening. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

How does the Guwahati climate affect this product?

Guwahati is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them. The failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.

How does an order actually travel to Guwahati?

made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: four days, 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 will soundproof curtains not do?

A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.

Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?

5 curtains. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.

Next step

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up

A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
