Manufactured in India, supplied in Sharjah
Acoustic panels in Sharjah
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Sharjah. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Khalid or Jebel Ali, a short sea run from western India, with container pricing that suits the way Sharjah buys.

- 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 / What it is
The product, described honestly, for a Sharjah brief
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.
Work reaching us from Sharjah is mostly residential towers, fit-out contractors, factories and warehouses, schools, clinics, offices.
Towers and villas are concrete and block with stone or porcelain floors throughout. Mass is not the problem, impact noise and live rooms are.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Sharjah.

02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
Nothing below changes by location. The decisions that do change are grade, thickness and how the material is mounted, and those are covered further down.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

On a Sharjah job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / Local conditions
What we see driving Sharjah briefs
- Buying direct from the factory
Most material here arrives through a trader. Buying from the plant removes a layer of margin, and it means the person answering your technical question made the product.
- Dense mid-rise living
Tower and mid-rise blocks stack families above each other on blockwork and concrete slabs. Footfall, speech and TV noise between flats is the complaint we hear most.
- Industrial and warehouse work
Plant rooms, generator halls, compressor bays and workshops need mass and isolation, not decorative absorption. We say so rather than selling you panels.
- Fit-out contractors serving the whole UAE
A lot of Sharjah businesses fit out sites across the Emirates. We quote full container loads and stage deliveries against the programme.
- School and campus buildings
International school campuses are new, highly glazed and built to a tight programme. Sports halls, atria and lecture spaces are the rooms that need treating.
- The studio and content scene
Production rooms are fitted inside existing office and warehouse shells. Plant noise and neighbouring tenancies set the achievable noise floor.
Architects working in Sharjah usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate
What the Sharjah climate rules in and rules out
Sharjah 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.
Interior designers tend to arrive with the look already decided. We will tell you which finish gets there without losing the acoustics. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
What the route into Sharjah actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Port Khalid or Jebel Ali, then road to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Port Khalid |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order.
Sea freight into Port Khalid or Jebel Ali, then road to site. The transit from western India is short enough that sea suits most programmes. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.
06 / Read this first
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
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.
-
A claim of being local to Sharjah
We manufacture in India and supply here. We do not run an office in this city and we will not pretend to, because you would find out on the first site visit.

The material in real interiors
Sharjah: questions we are actually asked
Are these acoustic panels made in Sharjah?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Sharjah as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Khalid or Jebel Ali, a short sea run from western India, with container pricing that suits the way Sharjah buys. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Sharjah enquiry?
Most material here arrives through a trader. Buying from the plant removes a layer of margin, and it means the person answering your technical question made the product. Tower and mid-rise blocks stack families above each other on blockwork and concrete slabs. Footfall, speech and TV noise between flats is the complaint we hear most. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Sharjah weather shorten the life of this material?
Sharjah 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.
How quickly can material reach a site in Sharjah?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Port Khalid or Jebel Ali, then road to site, 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.
Where do acoustic panels fail to help?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.

Send a plan and a section, get a real build-up
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.
