Manufactured in India, supplied in Surat
Wood wool acoustic panels in Surat
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels 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.

01 / The material
What you are buying, and what it fixes in Surat
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
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.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Surat.
02 / Data sheet
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.

If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
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.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Auditoriums, banquet halls and places of worship are large hard volumes in concrete and stone where speech falls apart long before anyone calls the room echoey.
- 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
Durability in Surat, before acoustics is discussed
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.
If the visual is fixed and the room still has to perform, that is a solvable problem and a conversation worth having early. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
Getting it to Surat, with real dates
| 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 | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.
06 / Read this first
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Surat certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Surat: questions we are actually asked
Are these wood wool acoustic panels made 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 decides the specification for a Surat project?
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.
Will this material last in the Surat climate?
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.
Where do wood wool acoustic panels fail to help?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.

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.
