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

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 / The material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Peru
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 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.
- 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.

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 Peru.
02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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
| Build-up | 800 GSM face, foam, 3 mm SoundBlanket MLV core, foam, 800 GSM face |
|---|---|

| Reduction | Up to 30 dB |
| STC | 30 |
| Test standard | ASTM E90 |
| Standard sizes | 8 x 4 ft and 5 x 4 ft |
Consultants get the raw data, not a sales sheet. That is the whole of our side of the job, and it is set out under working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What we see driving Peru briefs
- 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.
- The housing stock
Concrete and block construction with hard floors, in buildings that sit close together and share walls.
- The studio and content scene
A growing music and content sector working inside residential and commercial rooms.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
What the Peru climate rules in and rules out
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 / Route to site
Getting it to Peru, with real dates
| 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 | 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 Callao, then a short road run for Lima work or a longer inland leg for mining sites. Air freight for samples.
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 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.
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.
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.
What should you not buy soundproof curtains for?
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.
