Hospital and healthcare acoustics in Ludhiana
Two duties at once: privacy where confidential conversations happen, and a lower noise floor where people are trying to rest. Hygiene and cleanability rule out a lot of products before acoustics is even discussed. Agro processing and light engineering plant, with generator sets and machinery close to occupied buildings.
- Consulting room privacy
- Speech privacy between rooms, which is partition, door and ceiling void work.
- Ward noise floor
- Alarms, trolleys and staff conversation in hard corridors. Absorption at the ceiling.
- Cleanability
- Non shedding, non absorbent surfaces that survive a cleaning regime.

01 / The product
What this is, and what it changes in a Ludhiana room
Two duties at once: privacy where confidential conversations happen, and a lower noise floor where people are trying to rest. Hygiene and cleanability rule out a lot of products before acoustics is even discussed.
Agro processing and light engineering plant, with generator sets and machinery close to occupied buildings.
Work reaching us from Ludhiana is mostly knitting and textile units, workshops, worker areas, offices, showrooms, schools, clinics.
- One to two days by road A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead so you can check the material before committing.
- 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.
- Consulting room privacy Speech privacy between rooms, which is partition, door and ceiling void work.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for healthcare acoustics are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Ludhiana.
02 / The build-up
The stack, in the order it is installed
-

Layer 1
PET felt acoustic panels
A rigid non-woven panel pressed from 100% polyester fibre, a large part of it recycled. In Ludhiana, agro processing and light engineering plant, with generator sets and machinery close to occupied buildings.
Direct to wall. Panel bonded or mechanically fixed flat to the substrate. Simplest, and the weakest at low frequency.
-

Layer 2
Acoustic carpet and rugs
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. In Ludhiana, auditoriums, banquet halls and places of worship are large hard volumes in concrete and stone where speech falls apart long before anyone calls the room echoey.
Loose lay on tackifier. Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
-

Layer 3
Acoustic panels
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. In Ludhiana, large school and college campuses in concrete and tile, with halls carrying assembly and performance.
Ceiling first. In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
For a Ludhiana practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.

What the buildings in Ludhiana do to the specification
- One to two days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead so you can check the material before committing.
- 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.
- Plant and HVAC
Agro processing and light engineering plant, with generator sets and machinery close to occupied buildings.

Space by space, for Ludhiana briefs
-

Consulting room privacy
Speech privacy between rooms, which is partition, door and ceiling void work. A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead so you can check the material before committing.
- PET felt acoustic panels, 100% PET non-woven, no added binder
- Ceiling baffles and clouds, 9 to 24 mm
- Acoustic panels, Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
-

Ward noise floor
Alarms, trolleys and staff conversation in hard corridors. Absorption at the ceiling. Knitting and processing machines run continuously. The honest fix is enclosing or barriering the machine, not lining the walls of the hall.
- PET felt acoustic panels, 9, 12, 18 and 24 mm standard, tolerance plus or minus 5 percent
- Ceiling baffles and clouds, Made to the drawing, standard and custom
- Acoustic panels, ASTM C423
-

Cleanability
Non shedding, non absorbent surfaces that survive a cleaning regime. Units sit close to homes, so noise leaving the building matters as much as noise inside it. Those are two different treatments.
- PET felt acoustic panels, 4 to 24 mm
- Ceiling baffles and clouds, Both faces work, which is why suspended area outperforms the same area laid flat
- Acoustic panels, 9 to 24 mm, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, up to 2440 x 4270 mm, 1200 to 3600 GSM
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.
04 / Climate
Durability in Ludhiana, before acoustics is discussed
Ludhiana is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the material list before acoustics is 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 failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Ludhiana project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
06 / Before you buy
Six mistakes that turn into a second fit-out
-
Fabric wrapped products in a clinical area
Enclose the machine, break the vibration path, then deal with what is left. Doing it in the other order costs more and achieves less.
-
Absorption used where privacy was the requirement
Nobody has ever achieved speech privacy with a panel. Privacy needs mass, a sealed head detail and a door that actually closes.
-
Ceiling void left open above a partition
The ceiling is almost always the largest untreated surface, so leaving it out means paying for panels that cannot reach the target.

05 / Route to site
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 |
| Support | Drawings, build-ups, BOQ and material that arrives complete |
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.
Questions from Ludhiana projects
What makes hospital and healthcare acoustics different in Ludhiana?
Agro processing and light engineering plant, with generator sets and machinery close to occupied buildings. Knitting and processing machines run continuously. The honest fix is enclosing or barriering the machine, not lining the walls of the hall.
Where should the budget go first on a Ludhiana project?
Consulting room privacy. Speech privacy between rooms, which is partition, door and ceiling void work. Ward noise floor. Alarms, trolleys and staff conversation in hard corridors. Absorption at the ceiling.
Do you have an office or installation team in Ludhiana?
No. We manufacture in India and supply into Ludhiana. We give you drawings, build-ups, a BOQ and material that arrives complete, and we will tell you plainly when a job needs a local contractor we cannot be.
How does material get to a Ludhiana site?
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.
What goes wrong most often on this kind of project?
Fabric wrapped products in a clinical area. Absorption used where privacy was the requirement.
What do you need from us to quote?
A plan, a section through the critical partition or ceiling, and what the room is for. From that we can give a build-up and a BOQ rather than a price per square foot.
Next step
Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out
One drawing gets you a proper answer. Build-up, quantities, a delivered date, and an honest note on anything we think is the wrong approach.
