Manufactured in India, supplied in Indore
Wooden slat acoustic panels in Indore
We manufacture wooden slat acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Indore. Indore is growing quickly and building new, which means the acoustics can still be designed rather than retrofitted.

- 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.

What you are buying, and what it fixes in Indore
Timber slats on an acoustic backing. The slats are the finish and the rhythm, the backing does the absorbing. Used where the room has to look considered rather than treated.
Work reaching us from Indore is mostly colleges and schools, hospitals, offices, food processing units, auditoriums, hotels.
RC frame apartments and independent houses with stone and tile floors, in a dry climate with dusty summers.
- Slats on felt backing The standard. Absorption comes from the backing behind the gaps, so the slat gap ratio is an acoustic decision, not only a visual one.
- Slats on a cavity Backing plus an air gap behind moves absorption lower, which matters in music rooms.
- Feature wall only Slats where they are seen, plain felt elsewhere, to hold the budget where it shows.
- What it will not do A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wooden slat panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Indore.
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.
- MDFStandard. Dry interiors, general commercial
- FR MDFFire rated. Public buildings and anywhere the specification calls for a class
- HDHMRMoisture resistant. Humid climates and rooms that see damp
| Substrate | MDF, FR MDF, HDF or HDHMR |
|---|---|
| Patterns | 13-3, 14-2, 28-4 and 59-5 |
| Panel sizes | 2440 x 192 mm and 2440 x 128 mm |
| Thickness | 14, 16 and 18 mm |
| Coverage | 96 sq ft per unit |
| Fire class | EN 13501-1 Class B s1 d0 on FR substrate |
If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What the buildings in Indore do to the specification
- New buildings, late decisions
Concrete and tile put up quickly, with the acoustic problem discovered at handover. Early drawings are worth more than extra material later.
- Food processing plant
Continuous machinery and packing lines close to occupied areas. Enclosure at the source rather than lining the hall.
- Teaching and assembly
Large lecture rooms and halls where speech fails long before anyone calls the room echoey.
- Two days by road
A manageable run, so freight stays reasonable and samples arrive before the order is placed.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Auditoriums, banquet halls and places of worship are large hard volumes in concrete and stone where speech falls apart long before anyone calls the room echoey.
For a Indore practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Indore changes the material, not the target
Indore is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even 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 risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
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.
05 / Logistics
Supply into Indore, start to site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two days |
| Packing | Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry. |
| Lead time | Longer than felt. Confirmed against the pattern and substrate at quote stage. |
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 nine hundred kilometres, normally two days on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, whatever the substrate, pattern, width or thickness.
| Any specification | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
-
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 Indore
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.
Indore: questions we are actually asked
Are these wooden slat acoustic panels made in Indore?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Indore as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Indore is growing quickly and building new, which means the acoustics can still be designed rather than retrofitted. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Indore enquiry?
Concrete and tile put up quickly, with the acoustic problem discovered at handover. Early drawings are worth more than extra material later. Continuous machinery and packing lines close to occupied areas. Enclosure at the source rather than lining the hall. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Indore conditions?
Indore is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. 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.
When would material land on a Indore site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two 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.
When are wooden slat acoustic panels the wrong purchase?
A tight slat pattern looks denser but absorbs less, because the open area is what lets sound reach the backing. If the visual you want and the RT target you need pull apart, we will tell you which one the pattern is serving.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, whatever the substrate, pattern, width or thickness. Any specification, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. One unit covers 96 sq ft, so the minimum is a little over five units. Substrate, slat pattern, width and thickness can be mixed inside the same order. Braced crates, slats supported along their length. Timber moves, so crates are kept flat and dry.
