Acoustic carpet and rugs in Riyadh

We manufacture acoustic carpet and rugs at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Riyadh. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Dammam, then road inland to Riyadh.

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 Riyadh

A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. It absorbs at the floor and, more usefully, kills footfall and chair scrape at the point they are generated.

Work reaching us from Riyadh is mostly government and corporate buildings, hotels, large developments, hospitals, schools, auditoriums.

Villas and apartment blocks are concrete and block with hard stone or tile throughout. Mass is there, but every room is live and impact noise between floors is untreated.

  • Loose lay on tackifier Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
  • Over a resilient underlay Where impact noise to the floor below is the actual complaint, the underlay does that work, not the carpet.
  • Zoned Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
  • What it will not do Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.

Full specification

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic carpet and rugs are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Riyadh.

02 / Specification

The numbers, and they do not move by city

The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Riyadh project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

03 / On the ground

What the buildings in Riyadh do to the specification

  • Inland, so plan the road leg

    Dammam then several hundred kilometres by road. We quote the sea leg and the inland leg separately so the programme runs on real dates.

  • Very large single orders

    Development-scale work means the same detail repeated across many buildings. Batch consistency matters more than the figure on any one sheet.

  • Heat and sealed buildings

    Closed up with heavy cooling all year. Plant noise has nowhere to escape and rooms stay hard and live inside.

  • Assembly and briefing spaces

    Large halls in concrete and stone where speech stops being intelligible well before the room sounds obviously wrong.

  • Assembly and performance rooms

    Mosques, conference halls and hotel ballrooms are tall hard volumes where intelligibility over a long reverberation tail is the whole brief.

  • The housing stock

    Villas and apartment blocks are concrete and block with hard stone or tile throughout. Mass is there, but every room is live and impact noise between floors is untreated.

We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate

The Riyadh climate decides the material list

Riyadh is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even 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 risk we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.

For a Riyadh interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.

05 / Supply

Getting it to Riyadh, with real dates

Supply into Riyadh
Ships fromPalwal, Haryana, India
Arrives atDammam, then road inland to Riyadh
Dispatch4 to 7 working days
FreightSea via Dammam, then road
PackingBoxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
Lead time4 to 7 working days.

Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.

Sea freight into Dammam, then road inland to Riyadh. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.

The same minimums apply on export.

Minimum order, acoustic carpet and rugs
Carpet tiles320 sq ft, about 30 sq m
Rugs500 sq ft, about 46 sq m

A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg.

06 / Read this first

Four honest warnings before you buy

  • The wrong product for the problem

    Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.

  • 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 Riyadh certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.

FAQ

Riyadh: questions we are actually asked

Is there a Riyadh 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 Riyadh as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Dammam, then road inland to Riyadh. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What do you look at first on a Riyadh enquiry?

Dammam then several hundred kilometres by road. We quote the sea leg and the inland leg separately so the programme runs on real dates. Development-scale work means the same detail repeated across many buildings. Batch consistency matters more than the figure on any one sheet. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

How does the Riyadh climate affect this product?

Riyadh is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures. 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.

What is the delivery time into Riyadh?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Dammam, then road inland to Riyadh, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.

What should you not buy acoustic carpet and rugs for?

Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.

How is the order packed and what is the minimum?

The same minimums apply on export. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m. Rugs, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg. Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
