Manufactured in India, supplied in Lisbon
Acoustic carpet and rugs in Lisbon
We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Lisbon. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Lisbon or Sines, then a short road run to site, with narrow street access planned into how we pack.

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 / The product
What this material is and where it earns its place in Lisbon
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 Lisbon is mostly hotel and short let conversions, apartments, restaurants, offices, clinics, studios.
Masonry and concrete blocks with tile and stone floors, in buildings that share walls and courtyards.
- 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 Lisbon.
02 / Specification sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
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 |
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 / What drives the brief
The Lisbon conditions that change the answer
- Conversions put beds either side of old walls
A house divided into guest rooms turns internal partitions into separating walls overnight. Doors and corridors generate more complaints than the walls themselves.
- Timber floors, every floor
Footfall from above is the single most common complaint we hear from this city. It is a floor problem, and treating the ceiling below rarely fixes it.
- Hills and narrow streets
Access decides the delivery. Tell us the street and the stairwell and we break pallets down to what will actually get to the room.
- Late districts under homes
Venues in the old districts operate directly beneath apartments. Low frequency containment is what keeps the operation trading.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Church buildings, civic auditoria and function rooms are stone volumes with very long decay.
- The housing stock
Masonry and concrete blocks with tile and stone floors, in buildings that share walls and courtyards.
Architects working in Lisbon 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
The Lisbon climate decides the material list
Lisbon 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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
Getting it to Lisbon, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Lisbon or Sines, then a short road run to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Lisbon or Sines |
| 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 Lisbon or Sines, then a short road run to site. 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.
06 / Before you buy
What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
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.
-
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.

Suppliers who imply a Lisbon 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.
Lisbon: questions we are actually asked
Where are the acoustic carpet and rugs you supply to Lisbon actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Lisbon as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Lisbon or Sines, then a short road run to site, with narrow street access planned into how we pack. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Lisbon build-up differ from anywhere else?
A house divided into guest rooms turns internal partitions into separating walls overnight. Doors and corridors generate more complaints than the walls themselves. Footfall from above is the single most common complaint we hear from this city. It is a floor problem, and treating the ceiling below rarely fixes it. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Lisbon climate affect this product?
Lisbon 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.
How does an order actually travel to Lisbon?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Lisbon or Sines, then a short road run 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 should you not buy acoustic carpet and rugs for?
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.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
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.
