Manufactured in India, supplied in Las Vegas
Acoustic panels in Las Vegas
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Las Vegas. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Long Beach and trucked across, with the road leg quoted separately so the dates are real.

- Grooved panels
- Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Test standard

- Lead time
- 4 to 7 working days standard
- Minimum order
- From 10 panels
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / Start here
The material, and what it actually does on a Las Vegas job
The full absorber range rather than one product: plain PET felt, printed felt, grooved panels and fabric finishes, chosen by how the room is used and how it has to look.
Work reaching us from Las Vegas is mostly venues and showrooms, hotels and casinos, conference and event space, offices, multifamily.
American homes are timber frame with gypsum board on both faces, so a party wall or a basement ceiling has almost no mass. Adding a second leaf with a limp membrane between does more than any amount of surface treatment.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Las Vegas.

02 / Data sheet
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

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 / Local conditions
What we see driving Las Vegas briefs
- Extreme dry heat
PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or break down at high temperature, which matters in roof voids and plant spaces that get genuinely hot.
- Rooms judged at full capacity
A showroom or venue behaves nothing like it does empty. The design has to work when the room is packed, which is when it is being assessed.
- Enormous volumes
Conference and event spaces with very large cubic volume hold sound for a long time. Absorption has to go where it recovers intelligibility.
- No port, so plan the road leg
Everything arrives at Long Beach and drives. We quote the sea leg and the road leg separately.
- School and campus buildings
Public school buildings run long corridors with hard floors and lay-in tile ceilings that were chosen for cost, not for speech. Classroom reverberation and corridor spill are the two complaints, and both respond to ceiling area rather than wall panels.
- The studio and content scene
Home and project studios go into basements and converted garages with equipment budgets far ahead of the building. The room leaks to the floor above long before it sounds wrong inside.
For a Las Vegas practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
Durability in Las Vegas, before acoustics is discussed
Las Vegas is mild summers and cold, wet winters, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air.
The risk we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new linings.
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 / Route to site
What the route into Las Vegas actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Long Beach, then road across to Las Vegas |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Long Beach, then road |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.
Sea freight into Long Beach, then road across to Las Vegas. 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.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.
06 / Read this first
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
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 Las Vegas certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

How it looks once it is installed
Las Vegas: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic panels in Las Vegas?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Las Vegas as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India, shipped into Long Beach and trucked across, with the road leg quoted separately so the dates are real. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Las Vegas build-up differ from anywhere else?
A showroom or venue behaves nothing like it does empty. The design has to work when the room is packed, which is when it is being assessed. Conference and event spaces with very large cubic volume hold sound for a long time. Absorption has to go where it recovers intelligibility. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Las Vegas conditions?
Las Vegas is mild summers and cold, wet winters. Cold external walls and long heating seasons make condensation behind a lining the thing to design out. PET felt is unaffected by damp air. The failure we design against here is condensation and cold bridging behind new linings.
How quickly can material reach a site in Las Vegas?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Long Beach, then road across to Las Vegas, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.
Where do acoustic panels fail to help?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.
