This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / The material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Istanbul
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 Istanbul is mostly apartment blocks, hotels, offices and towers, restaurants, hospitals, schools.
Reinforced concrete blocks with block infill and hard floors, sharing slabs and light wells across dense neighbourhoods.
- 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 Istanbul.
02 / Data sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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.
- 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

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 / Local conditions
What the buildings in Istanbul do to the specification
- Built to move
Seismic detailing means junctions that must stay flexible. An acoustic build-up cannot stiffen across a movement joint.
- Concrete blocks, live rooms
The structure carries mass, so the recurring problems are impact through slabs and interiors with nothing soft in them.
- A city that never goes quiet
Traffic, ferries and street life reach rooms through glazing rather than walls. Fix the facade path before the wall.
- Turkey manufactures too
Domestic supply exists, so we are worth importing where the specification, the colour consistency or the supply chain is the reason.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Mosques, cultural centres and function halls are tall hard volumes carrying amplified speech.
If you are specifying for a Istanbul project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
Why the climate in Istanbul changes the material, not the target
Istanbul is hot dry summers and mild wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing.
The risk we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
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.
05 / Logistics
How material reaches a Istanbul site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Ambarlı or Mersin, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Ambarlı |
| 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 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Ambarlı or Mersin, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| 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.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not

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.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.

Suppliers who imply a Istanbul presence
Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.
Istanbul: questions we are actually asked
Where are the wooden slat acoustic panels you supply to Istanbul actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Istanbul as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Ambarlı or Mersin, then road to site. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Istanbul build-up differ from anywhere else?
Seismic detailing means junctions that must stay flexible. An acoustic build-up cannot stiffen across a movement joint. The structure carries mass, so the recurring problems are impact through slabs and interiors with nothing soft in them. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Istanbul conditions?
Istanbul is hot dry summers and mild wet winters. The swing between a dry summer and a wet winter moves timber. PET felt is dimensionally stable across that swing; slat panels want a stable substrate and a ventilated fixing. The failure we design against here is seasonal movement in timber and winter damp in unheated stock.
When would material land on a Istanbul site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Ambarlı or Mersin, then road to site, 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.
What should you not buy wooden slat acoustic panels for?
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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. 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.
