Manufactured in India, supplied in Siliguri
Soundproof curtains in Siliguri
We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Siliguri. Siliguri is the gateway to the Northeast and the hills, so a lot of what we ship here is onward bound to hotels and institutions beyond the city.

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 is, and what it changes in a Siliguri room
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
Work reaching us from Siliguri is mostly hotels and resorts, restaurants, hospitals, schools, offices, banquet halls.
Older masonry buildings and newer RC frame apartments with hard floors, in very dense neighbourhoods with heavy monsoon damp.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.

Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Siliguri.
02 / Data sheet
The numbers, and they do not move by city
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.

On a Siliguri job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.

What decides the build-up in Siliguri
- Humidity decides the material
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould. In a damp climate that is the difference between a finish that lasts and one that sags in two seasons.
- A distribution point, not just a destination
Material often moves onward to the hills and the Northeast. We pack for a second leg on rougher roads when you tell us that is happening.
- Hotel guest rooms
Corridor noise and the next room generate the complaints. Door and wall detailing does that work, not the panel in the room.
- Three to four days by road
A dedicated truck from Palwal, with the schedule confirmed before dispatch rather than estimated after.
- The housing stock
Older masonry buildings and newer RC frame apartments with hard floors, in very dense neighbourhoods with heavy monsoon damp.
- The studio and content scene
Studios go into basements, terrace rooms and back rooms with neighbours on every side and a generator somewhere in the lane. Isolating from the building has to come before treating the room.
If you are specifying for a Siliguri project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
The Siliguri climate decides the material list
Siliguri 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.
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
Getting it to Siliguri, with real dates
| 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 | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
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 fifteen hundred kilometres, normally three to four days on a dedicated truck.
5 curtains.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.
06 / Straight talk
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
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 Siliguri 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.
Siliguri: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture soundproof curtains in Siliguri?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Siliguri as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Siliguri is the gateway to the Northeast and the hills, so a lot of what we ship here is onward bound to hotels and institutions beyond the city. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Siliguri build-up differ from anywhere else?
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould. In a damp climate that is the difference between a finish that lasts and one that sags in two seasons. Material often moves onward to the hills and the Northeast. We pack for a second leg on rougher roads when you tell us that is happening. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Siliguri climate?
Siliguri 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.
What is the delivery time into Siliguri?
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.
When are soundproof curtains the wrong purchase?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
5 curtains. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.

One drawing gets you a proper answer. Build-up, quantities, a delivered date, and an honest note on anything we think is the wrong approach.
