Cinema and multiplex soundproofing in Pune
Screens stacked beside and above each other, each running full range at high level. Bleed between auditoria is the failure everyone hears, and it is decided by the shell, not the finishes. 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.
- Screen to screen
- Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line.
- In room response
- Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended.
- Plant and projection
- Equipment noise into the auditorium, treated at source.

01 / The product
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Pune
Screens stacked beside and above each other, each running full range at high level. Bleed between auditoria is the failure everyone hears, and it is decided by the shell, not the finishes.
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.
Work reaching us from Pune is mostly automotive and engineering plants, townships and apartment towers, IT offices, colleges, clinics.
- Machinery, not conversation Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them.
- New townships, repeated details The same separating wall across hundreds of flats. Getting it right on the drawing is far cheaper than fixing it after possession.
- Education and test rooms Colleges and engineering centres with rooms that need a genuinely low background before measurement means anything.
- Screen to screen Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for cinema soundproofing are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Pune.
02 / The build-up
What goes where, from the structure in
-
Layer 1
SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl
A limp, high density sheet that adds mass to a partition, floor or duct without adding depth. In Pune, split units, VRF outdoor banks and diesel generator sets sit close to occupied areas, often on the same terrace as a bedroom. Generator enclosure and condenser screening are the recurring jobs.
Wall, decoupled. Independent stud, membrane between the boards, cavity absorption, two boards. The membrane is one part of a system, never the whole answer.
-
Layer 2
Soundproofing materials
The blocking side of the range taken together: mass loaded vinyl, resilient layers, cavity absorption and the build-ups they belong in. In Pune, 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.
Independent leaf. A second wall that does not touch the first. Nothing else comes close for the money.
-
Layer 3
PET felt acoustic panels
A rigid non-woven panel pressed from 100% polyester fibre, a large part of it recycled. In Pune, schools range from compact municipal buildings to large private campuses, all hard surfaced, with assembly halls doing duty as performance spaces.
On a 25 to 50 mm air gap. The same panel on battens. The air gap moves absorption down in frequency at no extra material cost, and is the cheapest improvement available.
If you are specifying for a Pune project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.

What the buildings in Pune do to the specification
- Machinery, not conversation
Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them.
- New townships, repeated details
The same separating wall across hundreds of flats. Getting it right on the drawing is far cheaper than fixing it after possession.
- Education and test rooms
Colleges and engineering centres with rooms that need a genuinely low background before measurement means anything.
- Monsoon damp
PET felt does not absorb moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- 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.

Where the money goes on a Pune project
-
Screen to screen
Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line. Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, 2100 kg per cubic metre
- Acoustic panels, 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing
- PET felt acoustic panels, 4 to 24 mm
-
In room response
Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended. The same separating wall across hundreds of flats. Getting it right on the drawing is far cheaper than fixing it after possession.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, STC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m
- Acoustic panels, Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- PET felt acoustic panels, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, 4 x 8 ft
-
Plant and projection
Equipment noise into the auditorium, treated at source. Colleges and engineering centres with rooms that need a genuinely low background before measurement means anything.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, STC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m
- Acoustic panels, ASTM C423
- PET felt acoustic panels, 2440 x 4270 mm, 2.44 x 4.27 m, 8 x 14 ft
For a Pune interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
04 / Conditions
The Pune climate decides the material list
Pune is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the material list before acoustics is 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 failure we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
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.
06 / Straight talk
Where this kind of project usually fails
-
A shared service void running across the wall line
The ceiling is almost always the largest untreated surface, so leaving it out means paying for panels that cannot reach the target.
-
Treating the auditorium to fix bleed from the next screen
This is the one that comes back as a second fit-out rather than a snag.
-
Doors and lobbies specified late and undersized
A 6 mm undercut under a door leaves a hole the size of a brick. The wall around it is then decorative.
-
Treating it as a generic Pune job
Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them.
05 / Logistics
What the route into Pune actually looks like
| 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 |
| Support | Drawings, build-ups, BOQ and material that arrives complete |
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.
Questions from Pune projects
What makes cinema and multiplex soundproofing different in Pune?
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. Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them.
Where should the budget go first on a Pune project?
Screen to screen. Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line. In room response. Heavy absorption on side and rear walls so the mix is heard as intended.
Do you have an office or installation team in Pune?
No. We manufacture in India and supply into Pune. We give you drawings, build-ups, a BOQ and material that arrives complete, and we will tell you plainly when a job needs a local contractor we cannot be.
How does material get to a Pune site?
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 goes wrong most often on this kind of project?
A shared service void running across the wall line. Treating the auditorium to fix bleed from the next screen.
What do you need from us to quote?
A plan, a section through the critical partition or ceiling, and what the room is for. From that we can give a build-up and a BOQ rather than a price per square foot.
