Manufactured in India, supplied in Peru
Acoustic panels in Peru
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Peru. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Callao, which sits next to Lima, so the road leg for most commercial work is short.
- Plain PET felt
- 9 to 24 mm, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, up to 2440 x 4270 mm, 1200 to 3600 GSM
- Printed felt
- 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing
- Grooved panels
- Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- 4 to 7 working days standard
- Minimum order
- From 10 panels
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.
01 / Start here
What this is, and what it changes in a Peru room
The full absorber range rather than one product: plain PET felt, printed felt, grooved panels and fabric finishes, chosen by how the room is used and how it has to look.
Work reaching us from Peru is mostly offices, apartments, mining and industrial facilities, hotels, hospitals, schools.
Concrete and block construction with hard floors, in buildings that sit close together and share walls.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Peru.

02 / Data sheet
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

On a Peru job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What the buildings in Peru do to the specification
- Callao is next to the market
The port sits beside Lima, so most commercial deliveries have almost no inland leg. Mining sites inland are a different calculation and we quote them separately.
- Mining plant and control rooms
Continuous machinery and rooms where operators listen for alarms. Enclosure and a low background, not decorative absorption.
- Dry coastal climate
Lima is dry and mild. Material stability is straightforward, and PET felt does not degrade or shed in these conditions.
- Concrete construction
Walls carry mass, so hard live interiors and services noise are the usual complaints rather than transmission between rooms.
- School and campus buildings
Classrooms are concrete and tile with large class sizes and open courtyards that carry sound.
- The studio and content scene
A growing music and content sector working inside residential and commercial rooms.
If you are specifying for a Peru 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
Durability in Peru, before acoustics is discussed
Peru 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 / Getting it there
What the route into Peru actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Callao, next to Lima, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Callao |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
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 Callao, then a short road run for Lima work or a longer inland leg for mining sites. Air freight for samples.
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.
06 / Worth knowing
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
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 Peru certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

The product on finished jobs
Peru: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture acoustic panels in Peru?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Peru as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Callao, which sits next to Lima, so the road leg for most commercial work is short. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Peru build-up differ from anywhere else?
The port sits beside Lima, so most commercial deliveries have almost no inland leg. Mining sites inland are a different calculation and we quote them separately. Continuous machinery and rooms where operators listen for alarms. Enclosure and a low background, not decorative absorption. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Peru weather shorten the life of this material?
Peru 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 Peru site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Callao, next to Lima, 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 acoustic panels fail to help?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.
