Ceiling baffles and clouds in Kuala Lumpur
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Kuala Lumpur. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Klang, about an hour from the city, so the inland leg stays short.
- 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
Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / The material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Kuala Lumpur
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 Kuala Lumpur is mostly mixed use developments, condo towers, hotels, offices, restaurants, clinics, studios.
Concrete frame condominiums and terrace houses with hard tile floors throughout, sharing walls and slabs.
- 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 Kuala Lumpur.

02 / Data sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Kuala Lumpur project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What decides the build-up in Kuala Lumpur
- Everything in one building
Retail, plant, offices and homes stacked vertically means noise travels between uses that were never meant to share a structure.
- Humidity all year
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a few seasons.
- Concrete towers, hard interiors
The frame has mass, so the issue is usually reverberation inside and impact through slabs rather than airborne transfer.
- An hour from the port
Port Klang is close, which keeps the inland cost low and the date predictable.
- School and campus buildings
Classrooms are hard and naturally ventilated with open corridors and large assembly halls.
If you are specifying for a Kuala Lumpur project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
What the Kuala Lumpur climate rules in and rules out
Kuala Lumpur is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them.
The risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
For a Kuala Lumpur interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
How material reaches a Kuala Lumpur site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Port Klang, then a short road run into the city |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Port Klang |
| 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 Port Klang, then a short road run into Kuala Lumpur. 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 / Straight talk
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
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.

Suppliers who imply a Kuala Lumpur 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.
Kuala Lumpur: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Kuala Lumpur?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Kuala Lumpur as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Klang, about an hour from the city, so the inland leg stays short. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Kuala Lumpur enquiry?
Retail, plant, offices and homes stacked vertically means noise travels between uses that were never meant to share a structure. The frame has mass, so the issue is usually reverberation inside and impact through slabs rather than airborne transfer. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Kuala Lumpur weather shorten the life of this material?
Kuala Lumpur is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them. The failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
How quickly can material reach a site in Kuala Lumpur?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Port Klang, then a short road run into the city, 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 ceiling baffles and clouds 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.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
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.
Next step
Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
