Manufactured in India, supplied in Jordan
SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl in Jordan
We manufacture soundBlanket mass loaded vinyl at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Jordan. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Aqaba on the Red Sea, then road north to Amman.

We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.
01 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Jordan brief
A limp, high density sheet that adds mass to a partition, floor or duct without adding depth. It is the barrier product, not an absorber, and it is the right answer when the problem is noise passing through a structure.
Work reaching us from Jordan is mostly hotels and hospitality, offices, institutional buildings, hospitals, schools, venues.
Stone faced concrete construction with hard floors throughout. Apartment blocks share slabs that pass footfall directly.
- Wall, decoupled Independent stud, membrane between the boards, cavity absorption, two boards. The membrane is one part of a system, never the whole answer.
- Floor, floating Membrane under a resilient layer and a floating deck, so impact energy is broken before it reaches the slab.
- Duct and plant wrap Membrane wrapped over the duct with a decoupling layer beneath, sealed at every lap.
- What it will not do Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for SoundBlanket MLV are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Jordan.
02 / Data sheet
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.
- 2.5 mmSTC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m. Ducts, light partitions, retrofit where depth is tight
- 4 mmSTC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m. Party walls, floors, plant rooms, the common specification
- 6 mm12.6 kg per sq m. Machine enclosures and low frequency problems
| Density | 2100 kg per cubic metre |
|---|---|
| 2.5 mm | STC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m |
| 4 mm | STC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m |
| 6 mm | 12.6 kg per sq m, STC on request |
| Roll size | 5 x 1.2 m, 6 sq m per roll |
| Form | Limp sheet, cuts with a knife, seams lapped and sealed |
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 we see driving Jordan briefs
- Stone inside and out
Limestone cladding and hard floors give real mass but nothing absorbs anything. Ceiling absorption usually does most of the work.
- Aqaba, then the drive north
The port is at the far south. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately so the programme runs on real dates.
- Dry heat and sealed rooms
Air conditioned rooms stay closed, so sound accumulates inside and plant noise matters more than street noise.
- Institutional and assembly spaces
Large halls in stone and concrete where speech stops being intelligible long before the room sounds obviously wrong.
- The housing stock
Stone faced concrete construction with hard floors throughout. Apartment blocks share slabs that pass footfall directly.
- The studio and content scene
A growing media and broadcast sector fitting rooms into existing commercial and residential buildings, where the neighbouring tenancy sets the achievable noise floor.
If you are specifying for a Jordan project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
The Jordan climate decides the material list
Jordan is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves.
The risk we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
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 / Getting it there
Supply into Jordan, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Aqaba, then road north to Amman |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Aqaba, then road |
| Packing | Rolls on core tubes, wrapped and end capped, 5 x 1.2 m. Weights on the packing list, because a full roll is heavy and site access matters. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. Full container quantities scheduled against the vessel. |
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 Aqaba, then road north to Amman and beyond. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export as on domestic orders.
| 2.5 mm and 4 mm | 10 rolls, 60 sq m |
|---|---|
| 6 mm and other thicknesses | 10 tonnes per thickness |
A SoundBlanket roll is 5 x 1.2 m, which is 6 sq m. At 2100 kg per cubic metre a roll weighs about 31.5 kg at 2.5 mm and about 50.4 kg at 4 mm, so a 10 roll minimum is 60 sq m and roughly 315 kg at 2.5 mm or 504 kg at 4 mm.
06 / Before you buy
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Jordan certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Jordan: questions we are actually asked
Where are the soundBlanket mass loaded vinyl you supply to Jordan actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Jordan as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Aqaba on the Red Sea, then road north to Amman. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Jordan job?
Limestone cladding and hard floors give real mass but nothing absorbs anything. Ceiling absorption usually does most of the work. The port is at the far south. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately so the programme runs on real dates. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Jordan climate affect this product?
Jordan is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures. Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves. The failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
When would material land on a Jordan site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Aqaba, then road north to Amman, 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 soundBlanket mass loaded vinyl for?
Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
The same minimums apply on export as on domestic orders. 2.5 mm and 4 mm, 10 rolls, 60 sq m. 6 mm and other thicknesses, 10 tonnes per thickness. A SoundBlanket roll is 5 x 1.2 m, which is 6 sq m. At 2100 kg per cubic metre a roll weighs about 31.5 kg at 2.5 mm and about 50.4 kg at 4 mm, so a 10 roll minimum is 60 sq m and roughly 315 kg at 2.5 mm or 504 kg at 4 mm. Rolls on core tubes, wrapped and end capped, 5 x 1.2 m. Weights on the packing list, because a full roll is heavy and site access matters.
