Manufactured in India, supplied in Hungary
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Hungary
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Hungary. Made at our own plant in India and routed through Koper, then rail and road inland.
- 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 are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / The material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Hungary
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 Hungary is mostly automotive plants, offices and service centres, hotels, panel block housing, schools, hospitals.
Masonry blocks with timber floors in older stock and panel housing in concrete, both with hard finishes.
- 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 Hungary.

The numbers, and they do not move by city
Nothing below changes by location. The decisions that do change are grade, thickness and how the material is mounted, and those are covered further down.
- 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 Hungary job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What decides the build-up in Hungary
- Landlocked, so plan the inland leg
Koper then rail and road. We quote the sea leg and the inland leg separately so the programme runs on real dates.
- Automotive plant noise
Presses, robots and conveyors are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source rather than absorption on a far wall.
- Panel block housing
Prefabricated concrete passes speech and footfall between flats through thin connected elements. Mass is the only reliable answer.
- Budapest conversions
Old buildings turned into offices and hotels, with tall rooms and hard plaster that hold sound far too long.
- School and campus buildings
School buildings are hard surfaced with long corridors and gymnasiums serving as halls.
If you are specifying for a Hungary project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
The Hungary climate decides the material list
Hungary 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.
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
Getting it to Hungary, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Koper, then rail and road inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Koper, then rail |
| 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. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Koper, then rail and road inland. 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
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Hungary certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Hungary: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Hungary?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Hungary as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and routed through Koper, then rail and road inland. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Hungary enquiry?
Koper then rail and road. We quote the sea leg and the inland leg separately so the programme runs on real dates. Presses, robots and conveyors are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source rather than absorption on a far wall. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Hungary climate affect this product?
Hungary 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 does an order actually travel to Hungary?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Koper, then rail and road inland, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
When are ceiling baffles and clouds the wrong purchase?
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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
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.
