Manufactured in India, supplied in Ludhiana
Wood wool acoustic panels in Ludhiana
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels 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.

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
What this is, and what it changes in a Ludhiana room
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
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.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Ludhiana.
02 / Specification sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.
- Natural20 mm. Plant rooms, back of house, industrial
- Painted20 mm. Classrooms, halls, visible ceilings

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 / On the ground
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.
- Assembly and performance rooms
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.
- 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 / Conditions
The Ludhiana climate decides the material list
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.
For a Ludhiana interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
How material reaches a Ludhiana 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 | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
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.

A claim of being local to Ludhiana
We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.
Ludhiana: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture wood wool acoustic panels 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.
Does Ludhiana weather shorten the life of this material?
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 does an order actually travel to 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 wood wool acoustic panels fail to help?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.
