Manufactured in India, supplied in Pune
Wood wool acoustic panels in Pune
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Pune. Pune builds new townships and runs an automotive belt at the same time, so we supply apartment towers and press shops in the same week.

- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / The material
What this is, and what it changes in a Pune room
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
Work reaching us from Pune is mostly automotive and engineering plants, townships and apartment towers, IT offices, colleges, clinics.
Towers and chawls side by side, in RC frame with tile floors. Redevelopment stock shares slabs and lift cores, and monsoon damp rules out anything that holds moisture.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Pune.
02 / Specification sheet
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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.
- Natural20 mm. Plant rooms, back of house, industrial
- Painted20 mm. Classrooms, halls, visible ceilings

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 / What drives the brief
The Pune conditions that change the answer
- 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.
- School and campus buildings
Schools range from compact municipal buildings to large private campuses, all hard surfaced, with assembly halls doing duty as performance spaces.
For a Pune practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Pune changes the material, not the target
Pune is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even 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 risk we design against here is mould, sagging fabric finishes and swelling in timber.
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 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 |
| Packing | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.
06 / Read this first
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
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 Pune 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.
Pune: questions we are actually asked
Are these wood wool acoustic panels made in Pune?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Pune as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Pune builds new townships and runs an automotive belt at the same time, so we supply apartment towers and press shops in the same week. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Pune job?
Presses, compressors and test rigs are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source is the only thing that addresses them. The same separating wall across hundreds of flats. Getting it right on the drawing is far cheaper than fixing it after possession. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Pune climate affect this product?
Pune is warm and humid through most of the year, with a long wet season. 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.
How does an order actually travel to Pune?
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 should you not buy wood wool acoustic panels for?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.

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.
