01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Italy job
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. It absorbs at the floor and, more usefully, kills footfall and chair scrape at the point they are generated.
Work reaching us from Italy is mostly apartments, hotels, restaurants, showrooms, offices, studios, clinics, schools.
Masonry palazzi and later concrete blocks, with terrazzo and tile floors and shared courtyards that carry sound between flats.
- Loose lay on tackifier Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
- Over a resilient underlay Where impact noise to the floor below is the actual complaint, the underlay does that work, not the carpet.
- Zoned Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
- What it will not do Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic carpet and rugs are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Italy.
02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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.
- Standard tile4 mm. Offices, classrooms, studios, corridors
| Tile size | 500 x 500 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 4 mm |
| Face | High density polyester |
| Backing | Felt |
| Pack coverage | 64 sq ft per pack |
| Boxed | 20 kg, 55 x 55 x 15 cm |
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 / In this market
The Italy conditions that change the answer
- Hard shells, long reverberation
Masonry, marble, terrazzo and plaster reflect almost everything. A room can measure fine on paper and still be unusable for speech until something absorbent goes on the ceiling.
- Heritage limits what you can touch
In a protected building you often cannot alter the structure or the facade, so the work has to be internal, shallow and ideally reversible. That rules out most thick framed systems.
- Condominio living
Shared stairwells, party walls and slabs between flats mean neighbour complaints arrive fast. Mass plus a resilient break does more here than any surface treatment.
- Appearance is half the brief
Italian clients look at the panel before they listen to it. We supply consistent colour across a full order and finishes that survive a design review.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Churches, theatres and civic halls are stone and plaster volumes with decay times measured in seconds.
- The housing stock
Masonry palazzi and later concrete blocks, with terrazzo and tile floors and shared courtyards that carry sound between flats.
Architects working in Italy usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
What the Italy climate rules in and rules out
Italy 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 Italy site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Genoa, La Spezia or Trieste, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Genoa |
| Packing | Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access. |
| Lead time | 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 Genoa, La Spezia or Trieste, then road to site anywhere in the country. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export.
| Carpet tiles | 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m |
|---|---|
| Rugs | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
-
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 Italy certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Italy: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs in Italy?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Italy as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped in container loads into Genoa, La Spezia or Trieste, and specified against your drawings before anything leaves the factory. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Italy job?
Masonry, marble, terrazzo and plaster reflect almost everything. A room can measure fine on paper and still be unusable for speech until something absorbent goes on the ceiling. In a protected building you often cannot alter the structure or the facade, so the work has to be internal, shallow and ideally reversible. That rules out most thick framed systems. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Italy conditions?
Italy 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.
What is the delivery time into Italy?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Genoa, La Spezia or Trieste, 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 will acoustic carpet and rugs not do?
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same minimums apply on export. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m. Rugs, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg. Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
