Manufactured in India, supplied in Mexico
Soundproof curtains in Mexico
We manufacture soundproof curtains 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.

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 product
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Mexico
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
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.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains 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.
- Standard5.5 kg per sq m. Openings, stages, temporary partitions

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.
- The housing stock
Concrete and block construction with hard tile floors, in apartment blocks and houses that share walls and slabs.
- The studio and content scene
A very large music, dubbing and content sector working out of rooms inside commercial and residential buildings.
If you are specifying for a Mexico project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
Why the climate in Mexico changes the material, not the target
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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
What the route into Mexico actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Manzanillo or Veracruz, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Manzanillo |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
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 5 piece minimum applies on export.
| Any size | 5 pieces |
|---|
Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.
06 / Before you buy
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Mexico certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Mexico: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture soundproof curtains 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.
Will this material last in the Mexico climate?
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.
Where do soundproof curtains fail to help?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.

Send the drawings, get a straight answer
Send what you have. We will give you a layer by layer build-up, a bill of quantities and a date material lands, and we will flag anything in the brief that will not achieve what you want.
