Manufactured in India, supplied in Norway
Acoustic carpet and rugs in Norway
We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Norway. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Oslo, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Norway is a long country.

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 material, and what it actually does on a Norway 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 Norway is mostly timber buildings and apartments, offices, schools, healthcare, hotels, studios.
Timber frame housing and concrete apartment blocks, both with very tight envelopes and hard internal finishes.
- 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 Norway.
02 / Specification sheet
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- 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 Norway project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
The Norway conditions that change the answer
- Timber is light
Timber construction passes low frequency easily. Added mass and a decoupled layer do the work, and absorption alone will not.
- Classes are written and checked
Work arrives with a target and someone verifies it. Send us the class and we will say plainly where our material sits.
- Sealed through a long winter
Ventilation runs constantly in closed buildings, so plant noise matters far more than street noise.
- A long country
A site north of Oslo has a real domestic leg. We quote it separately so the programme is built on actual dates.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Church buildings, culture houses and school halls are hard volumes carrying speech and music.
- The housing stock
Timber frame housing and concrete apartment blocks, both with very tight envelopes and hard internal finishes.
If you are specifying for a Norway project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
The Norway climate decides the material list
Norway is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.
The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
If the visual is fixed and the room still has to perform, that is a solvable problem and a conversation worth having early. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
Supply into Norway, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Oslo, then road onward to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Oslo |
| 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 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 Oslo, then road onward to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
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.
06 / Worth knowing
What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
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.
-
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.

Suppliers who imply a Norway 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.
Norway: questions we are actually asked
Where are the acoustic carpet and rugs you supply to Norway actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Norway as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Oslo, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Norway is a long country. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Norway job?
Timber construction passes low frequency easily. Added mass and a decoupled layer do the work, and absorption alone will not. Work arrives with a target and someone verifies it. Send us the class and we will say plainly where our material sits. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Norway climate affect this product?
Norway is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
How does an order actually travel to Norway?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Oslo, then road onward 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 will acoustic carpet and rugs 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.
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.
