Acoustic carpet tiles and rugs on a modern floor

Manufactured in India, supplied in Mexico

Acoustic carpet and rugs in Mexico

We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Mexico. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Manzanillo on the Pacific or Veracruz on the Gulf, whichever suits the site better.

  • One batch across the order, no blending between runs
  • Test reports sent on request, not just quoted

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 / What it is

The material, and what it actually does on a Mexico job

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 Mexico is mostly manufacturing plants, corporate offices, hotels and resorts, apartments, schools, hospitals.

Concrete and block construction with hard tile floors, in apartment blocks and houses that share walls and slabs.

  • 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 Mexico.

02 / Data sheet

One specification sheet, the same in every market

We publish one data sheet for every market. If a supplier quotes you a different figure for the same product in a different city, one of the two numbers is wrong.

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 / In this market

What decides the build-up in Mexico

  • New plants at pace

    Greenfield manufacturing going up quickly. Enclosure and partition detail designed in now costs a fraction of fixing it after commissioning.

  • Block and concrete construction

    Walls carry mass, so the usual problem is hard live rooms and plant noise rather than conversation through a wall.

  • Two coasts, two ports

    Manzanillo serves the west and centre, Veracruz the east. We route to whichever shortens your inland leg.

  • Resort programmes are fixed

    Coastal hotel openings do not move, so real dispatch and transit dates matter more than a marginally better price.

  • Assembly and performance rooms

    Church buildings, event halls and auditoria are large hard volumes carrying amplified music.

  • The housing stock

    Concrete and block construction with hard tile floors, in apartment blocks and houses that share walls and slabs.

We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate and durability

Durability in Mexico, before acoustics is discussed

Mexico 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 / Supply

Getting it to Mexico, with real dates

Supply into Mexico
Ships fromPalwal, Haryana, India
Arrives atManzanillo or Veracruz, then road to site
Dispatch4 to 7 working days
FreightSea via Manzanillo
PackingBoxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
Lead time4 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.

Sea freight into Manzanillo or Veracruz, then road to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.

The same minimums apply on export.

Minimum order, acoustic carpet and rugs
Carpet tiles320 sq ft, about 30 sq m
Rugs500 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

The things worth knowing before you place the order

  • 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.

  • A number chased without a measurement

    If nobody has measured the room or set a target, the specification is a guess with a decimal point in it. We will ask for the target before we quote the quantity.

  • Suppliers who imply a Mexico 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.

FAQ

Mexico: questions we are actually asked

Do you manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs in Mexico?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Mexico as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Manzanillo on the Pacific or Veracruz on the Gulf, whichever suits the site better. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

Why would a Mexico build-up differ from anywhere else?

Greenfield manufacturing going up quickly. Enclosure and partition detail designed in now costs a fraction of fixing it after commissioning. Walls carry mass, so the usual problem is hard live rooms and plant noise rather than conversation through a wall. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Is this the right material for Mexico conditions?

Mexico 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.

When would material land on a Mexico site?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Manzanillo or Veracruz, then road to site, 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.

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.

What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?

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.
