Manufactured in India, supplied in Ludhiana
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Ludhiana
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Ludhiana. Ludhiana runs on textile and knitting machinery, and knitting machinery is genuinely loud for the people standing next to it all day.
- 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 this is, and what it changes in a Ludhiana room
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 Ludhiana is mostly knitting and textile units, workshops, worker areas, offices, showrooms, schools, clinics.
Independent houses and RC frame apartments with stone and tile floors, in towns with agricultural and light industrial activity nearby.
- 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 Ludhiana.

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.

- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

03 / In this market
What we see driving Ludhiana briefs
- Machine noise, all shift
Knitting and processing machines run continuously. The honest fix is enclosing or barriering the machine, not lining the walls of the hall.
- Industry beside housing
Units sit close to homes, so noise leaving the building matters as much as noise inside it. Those are two different treatments.
- Hard halls, no intelligibility
Large sheds with steel and concrete surfaces make instructions and alarms hard to understand. Targeted absorption fixes that without touching the machines.
- One to two days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead so you can check the material before committing.
- School and campus buildings
Large school and college campuses in concrete and tile, with halls carrying assembly and performance.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
Why the climate in Ludhiana changes the material, not the target
Ludhiana is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Getting it there
Supply into Ludhiana, start to site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | one to two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | one to two days |
| 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 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
By road from Palwal, roughly three hundred and fifty kilometres. Full loads on a dedicated truck, smaller consignments on a shared vehicle.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together.

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.

Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
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.
-
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 Ludhiana 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.
Ludhiana: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Ludhiana?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Ludhiana as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Ludhiana runs on textile and knitting machinery, and knitting machinery is genuinely loud for the people standing next to it all day. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Ludhiana job?
Knitting and processing machines run continuously. The honest fix is enclosing or barriering the machine, not lining the walls of the hall. Units sit close to homes, so noise leaving the building matters as much as noise inside it. Those are two different treatments. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Ludhiana climate?
Ludhiana is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
How quickly can material reach a site in Ludhiana?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: one to two days, dispatch: 2 to 4 working days. Standard items dispatch in 2 to 4 working days from our plant at Palwal. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Where do ceiling baffles and clouds fail to help?
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?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together. 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.
