Manufactured in India, supplied in Peru
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Peru
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds 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.
- Material
- 100% PET non-woven, the panel family
- Thickness
- 9 to 24 mm
- Size
- Made to the drawing, standard and custom
- Exposure
- Both faces work, which is why suspended area outperforms the same area laid flat
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- Confirmed against the drawing
- Minimum order
- 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
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 Peru brief
PET felt suspended from the soffit, vertically as baffles or horizontally as clouds. It is how you treat a room with exposed services, where there is no ceiling to line.
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.
- Vertical baffles Hung on edge in rows. Both faces absorb, so coverage figures based on plan area understate them.
- Horizontal clouds Flat rafts over the occupied zone, which also reflect early speech energy back down where it helps.
- Mixed with services Set out around ducts, trays and lighting rather than fighting them, coordinated from your reflected ceiling plan.
- What it will not do Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for baffles and clouds are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Peru.

02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

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 / Local conditions
What decides the build-up in Peru
- 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.
For a Peru practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. 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.
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
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 | Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing. |
| Lead time | Confirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 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 Callao, then a short road run for Lima work or a longer inland leg for mining sites. Air freight for samples.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| Baffles and clouds | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does.
06 / Before you buy
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
-
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.
-
A claim of being local to Peru
We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.
Peru: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Peru factory behind this product?
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.
Is this the right material for Peru conditions?
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.
What is the delivery time into Peru?
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.
When are ceiling baffles and clouds the wrong purchase?
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. Baffles and clouds, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does. Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
