Cinema and multiplex soundproofing in Rajkot
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 material
What this is, and what it changes in a Rajkot room
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 Rajkot is mostly foundries and machining halls, engineering units, offices, colleges, hospitals, showrooms.
- Foundry noise is structural Furnaces, hammers and heavy machine tools put energy into the floor. Isolation and mass address that, and absorption does not.
- Machining halls Continuous machine noise where instructions and alarms still have to be understood. Targeted absorption fixes intelligibility.
- Heat inside the building PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or degrade at high temperature, which matters in a foundry roof void.
- 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 Rajkot.
02 / The build-up
The build-up, layer by layer
-
Layer 1
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 Rajkot, heavy industrial plant across the state, so compressors, presses and generator sets sit close to offices and canteens inside the same building.
Floating floor. Resilient layer and deck, to break impact energy before it reaches the structure.
-
Layer 2
Acoustic panels
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. In Rajkot, 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.
Mixed finish. Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
-
Layer 3
Acoustic carpet and rugs
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. In Rajkot, large school and college campuses in concrete and tile, with assembly halls and auditoria in constant use.
Zoned. Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
Architects working in Rajkot usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
03 / In this market
What decides the build-up in Rajkot
- Foundry noise is structural
Furnaces, hammers and heavy machine tools put energy into the floor. Isolation and mass address that, and absorption does not.
- Machining halls
Continuous machine noise where instructions and alarms still have to be understood. Targeted absorption fixes intelligibility.
- Heat inside the building
PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or degrade at high temperature, which matters in a foundry roof void.
- Two to three days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, with samples sent ahead of the order.
- 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 Rajkot project
-
Screen to screen
Independent construction between auditoria, with services broken at the line. Furnaces, hammers and heavy machine tools put energy into the floor. Isolation and mass address that, and absorption does not.
- Soundproofing materials, 2100 kg per cubic metre. 2.5 mm STC 30 at 5.25 kg per sq m, 4 mm STC 34 at 8.4, 6 mm at 12.6
- 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. Continuous machine noise where instructions and alarms still have to be understood. Targeted absorption fixes intelligibility.
- Soundproofing materials, 1800 x 900 x 20 mm, 100 kg per cubic metre, NRC 0.85
- 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. PET felt does not sag, shed fibre or degrade at high temperature, which matters in a foundry roof void.
- Soundproofing materials, Mass, then decoupling, then cavity absorption, then sealing
- Acoustic panels, ASTM C423
- PET felt acoustic panels, 2440 x 4270 mm, 2.44 x 4.27 m, 8 x 14 ft
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.
04 / Climate and durability
Durability in Rajkot, before acoustics is discussed
Rajkot is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the material list before acoustics is discussed.
Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves.
The failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
On a Rajkot job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
06 / Worth knowing
The six errors that cost the most
-
A shared service void running across the wall line
A treated wall under a bare hard ceiling gives you a fraction of the reduction you paid for, and the room still sounds wrong.
-
Treating the auditorium to fix bleed from the next screen
Small on the drawing, expensive on site, and almost always found after handover.
-
Doors and lobbies specified late and undersized
A gap undoes the partition it sits in. Sealing is the cheapest line on the quote and the first one to get cut.
-
Treating it as a generic Rajkot job
Furnaces, hammers and heavy machine tools put energy into the floor. Isolation and mass address that, and absorption does not.
05 / Route to site
Supply into Rajkot, start to site
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two to three days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two to three 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 one thousand kilometres, normally two to three days on a dedicated truck.
Questions from Rajkot projects
What makes cinema and multiplex soundproofing different in Rajkot?
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. Furnaces, hammers and heavy machine tools put energy into the floor. Isolation and mass address that, and absorption does not.
Where should the budget go first on a Rajkot 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 Rajkot?
No. We manufacture in India and supply into Rajkot. 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 Rajkot site?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two to three 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.
Next step
Send the drawings, get a straight answer
A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
