PET felt acoustic panels in Kuala Lumpur
We manufacture PET felt acoustic panels 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.

01 / The product
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Kuala Lumpur
A rigid non-woven panel pressed from 100% polyester fibre, a large part of it recycled. It absorbs mid and high frequency energy and finishes as the visible surface, so it is both the acoustic layer and the finish.
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.
- Direct to wall Panel bonded or mechanically fixed flat to the substrate. Simplest, and the weakest at low frequency.
- On a 25 to 50 mm air gap The same panel on battens. The air gap moves absorption down in frequency at no extra material cost, and is the cheapest improvement available.
- Over a porous backing Panel over mineral or PET backing where the room needs genuine low mid control.
- What it will not do It absorbs. It does not block.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for PET felt panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Kuala Lumpur.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
Nothing below changes by location. The decisions that do change are grade, thickness and how the material is mounted, and those are covered further down.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, classrooms, general commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Studios, auditoria, rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

On a Kuala Lumpur job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
What decides the build-up in Kuala Lumpur
- Humidity all year
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a few seasons.
- Everything in one building
Retail, plant, offices and homes stacked vertically means noise travels between uses that were never meant to share a structure.
- 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 and durability
Durability in Kuala Lumpur, before acoustics is discussed
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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Getting it there
Supply into Kuala Lumpur, start to 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 | Palletised flat and film wrapped, cut sheets interleaved. Packing list and weights issued with the quote. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard colours and thicknesses. Grooved and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order. |
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.
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load, because the price per panel and the freight per panel both fall sharply and a part load pays for space it does not use.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container, for the best price per panel and the lowest freight per panel |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.
06 / Before you buy
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
It absorbs. It does not block. A PET panel on a shared wall will make the room sound better and will not stop the neighbour being heard. If the brief is stopping noise passing through a wall or floor, the answer is mass and decoupling, and we will say so before quoting.
-
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
Where are the PET felt acoustic panels you supply to Kuala Lumpur actually made?
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.
Is this the right material for Kuala Lumpur conditions?
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.
When are PET felt acoustic panels the wrong purchase?
It absorbs. It does not block. A PET panel on a shared wall will make the room sound better and will not stop the neighbour being heard. If the brief is stopping noise passing through a wall or floor, the answer is mass and decoupling, and we will say so before quoting.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load, because the price per panel and the freight per panel both fall sharply and a part load pays for space it does not use. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container, for the best price per panel and the lowest freight per panel. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped, cut sheets interleaved. Packing list and weights issued with the quote.
