Manufactured in India, supplied in Surat
Ceiling baffles and clouds in Surat
We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Surat. Surat runs on textiles and diamonds, both of which put continuous machine noise next to people working long shifts.
- 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
We make this ourselves and ship it to you. No local branch, no borrowed certifications, no dealer margin. One batch across the whole order, and an honest answer when the product is wrong for the problem.
01 / The material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Surat
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 Surat is mostly textile and processing units, diamond workshops, offices, showrooms, schools, clinics.
RC frame apartments and bungalows with stone and tile floors, in dry dusty conditions where open products collect dust.
- 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 Surat.

02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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. Offices, retail, general
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Halls, atria, spaces with a target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High volume and high occupancy

On a Surat job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / What drives the brief
The Surat conditions that change the answer
- Humid and coastal
PET felt does not absorb moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- Looms and processing machinery
Continuous high level noise for whole shifts. Enclosure or barrier at the machine is the honest fix, not lining the walls of the hall.
- Cutting and polishing rooms
Smaller, high frequency, and right next to people concentrating. Targeted treatment works here where it does not on a loom floor.
- Units beside housing
Noise leaving the building matters as much as noise inside it, and they need different treatments.
- School and campus buildings
Large school and college campuses in concrete and tile, with assembly halls and auditoria in constant use.
Architects working in Surat 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 and durability
Why the climate in Surat changes the material, not the target
Surat 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 Surat interior where the finish leads, we will say plainly what each option costs you acoustically. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
Supply into Surat, 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 |
| 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 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 eleven hundred kilometres, normally two to three days on a dedicated truck.
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together.

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 / Straight talk
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 Surat 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.
Surat: questions we are actually asked
Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Surat?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Surat as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Surat runs on textiles and diamonds, both of which put continuous machine noise next to people working long shifts. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Surat enquiry?
Continuous high level noise for whole shifts. Enclosure or barrier at the machine is the honest fix, not lining the walls of the hall. Smaller, high frequency, and right next to people concentrating. Targeted treatment works here where it does not on a loom floor. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Surat climate affect this product?
Surat 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 Surat?
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.
When are ceiling baffles and clouds the wrong purchase?
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 quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m, across baffles and clouds together. 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.

Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out
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.
