This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Mumbai brief
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 Mumbai is mostly recording studios, offices, flats and redevelopment towers, restaurants, clinics, schools.
Towers and chawls side by side, in RC frame with tile floors. Redevelopment stock shares slabs and lift cores, and monsoon damp rules out anything that holds moisture.
- 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 Mumbai.
02 / Data 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.
- Standard tile4 mm. Offices, classrooms, studios, corridors
| Tile size | 500 x 500 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 4 mm |
| Face | High density polyester |
| Backing | Felt |
| Pack coverage | 64 sq ft per pack |
| Boxed | 20 kg, 55 x 55 x 15 cm |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Mumbai project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

What the buildings in Mumbai do to the specification
- Every centimetre is paid for
At Mumbai rates a wall that grows a hundred millimetres into the room costs real money. A dense membrane with a resilient break usually beats a thick framed build-up here.
- The studio capital
More recording and dubbing rooms per square kilometre than anywhere else we supply. They sit inside occupied buildings, so isolation comes before tuning, always.
- Monsoon damp defeats the wrong material
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould. Mineral products sag here within a couple of seasons.
- Redevelopment, built fast
Old buildings replaced by towers on tight programmes. Acoustic detail is easy to lose unless it is specified before the slab is poured.
- 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.
- The housing stock
Towers and chawls side by side, in RC frame with tile floors. Redevelopment stock shares slabs and lift cores, and monsoon damp rules out anything that holds moisture.
Architects working in Mumbai usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
Durability in Mumbai, before acoustics is discussed
Mumbai is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them.
The risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
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
How material reaches a Mumbai site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | three to four days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | three to four days |
| Packing | Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access. |
| Lead time | 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 fourteen hundred kilometres, normally three to four days on a dedicated truck.
320 sq ft for carpet tiles, 500 sq ft for rugs.
| Carpet tiles | 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m, 5 packs |
|---|---|
| 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.
06 / Before you buy
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Mumbai certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Mumbai: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs in Mumbai?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Mumbai as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Mumbai gives us the smallest rooms and the hardest briefs in the country. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Mumbai build-up differ from anywhere else?
At Mumbai rates a wall that grows a hundred millimetres into the room costs real money. A dense membrane with a resilient break usually beats a thick framed build-up here. More recording and dubbing rooms per square kilometre than anywhere else we supply. They sit inside occupied buildings, so isolation comes before tuning, always. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Mumbai weather shorten the life of this material?
Mumbai is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. Humidity is the deciding factor. PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which is why it outlasts fabric-wrapped mineral wool in this climate. Wood wool and timber need a ventilated cavity behind them. The failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
What is the delivery time into Mumbai?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: three to four 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 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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
320 sq ft for carpet tiles, 500 sq ft for rugs. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m, 5 packs. 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.
