Manufactured in India, supplied in Romania
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Romania
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Romania. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Constanța, the largest port on the Black Sea, then road inland.
- Material
- 100% PET non-woven, the panel family
- Thickness
- 9 to 24 mm
- Size
- Made to the drawing, standard and custom
- Exposure
- Both faces work, which is why suspended area outperforms the same area laid flat
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- Confirmed against the drawing
- Minimum order
- 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Romania job
PET felt suspended from the soffit, vertically as baffles or horizontally as clouds. It is how you treat a room with exposed services, where there is no ceiling to line.
Work reaching us from Romania is mostly automotive and manufacturing plants, offices and service centres, panel block housing, schools, hospitals.
Communist era panel blocks with concrete walls and no impact isolation, plus new concrete towers with hard finishes.
- Vertical baffles Hung on edge in rows. Both faces absorb, so coverage figures based on plan area understate them.
- Horizontal clouds Flat rafts over the occupied zone, which also reflect early speech energy back down where it helps.
- Mixed with services Set out around ducts, trays and lighting rather than fighting them, coordinated from your reflected ceiling plan.
- What it will not do Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for baffles and clouds are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Romania.

02 / Specification
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

On a Romania job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What the buildings in Romania do to the specification
- Constanța is a major port
Direct sailings and good onward road connections make this one of the easier routes into central Europe.
- Manufacturing plant noise
Presses, robots and compressors are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source rather than absorption on a far wall.
- Panel block housing
Prefabricated concrete passes speech and footfall between flats through thin connected elements. Mass is the only reliable answer.
- Service centre floors
Large rooms full of people on calls, where privacy rather than echo is the real problem.
- School and campus buildings
School buildings are hard surfaced with long corridors and gymnasiums doubling as assembly halls.
If you are specifying for a Romania project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
The Romania climate decides the material list
Romania is cold winters and warm summers, with a wide annual temperature range, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
A wide annual swing stresses adhesive fixings and moves timber. Mechanical fixing beats adhesive alone, and PET felt is stable across the range.
The risk we design against here is adhesive failure and timber movement across the annual swing.
For a Romania interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
Getting it to Romania, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Constanța, then road inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Constanța |
| Packing | Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing. |
| Lead time | Confirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 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.
Sea freight into Constanța, then road inland. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| Baffles and clouds | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does.
06 / Worth knowing
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
-
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.
-
Suppliers who imply a Romania 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.
Romania: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Romania?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Romania as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Constanța, the largest port on the Black Sea, then road inland. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Romania enquiry?
Direct sailings and good onward road connections make this one of the easier routes into central Europe. Presses, robots and compressors are low frequency and structure-borne. Enclosure at the source rather than absorption on a far wall. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Romania weather shorten the life of this material?
Romania is cold winters and warm summers, with a wide annual temperature range. A wide annual swing stresses adhesive fixings and moves timber. Mechanical fixing beats adhesive alone, and PET felt is stable across the range. The failure we design against here is adhesive failure and timber movement across the annual swing.
What is the delivery time into Romania?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Constanța, then road inland, 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.
Where do ceiling baffles and clouds fail to help?
Baffles are efficient, not magic. In a very tall volume the height above the baffle line still rings, and the honest answer is either more area or accepting a higher RT, not a denser panel.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. Baffles and clouds, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Baffles and clouds are cut to the drawing, so the minimum is counted on finished panel area. Both faces of a hung baffle absorb, which is why coverage taken off a plan understates what the order actually does. Flat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing.

Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
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.
