Acoustic hanging ceiling baffles in a large open space

Manufactured in India, supplied in Sweden

Ceiling baffles and clouds in Sweden

We manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Sweden. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gothenburg, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Sweden is a long country.

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 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 / The product

What this is, and what it changes in a Sweden room

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 Sweden is mostly timber buildings and apartments, offices, schools, healthcare, hotels, studios.

Concrete apartment blocks and timber frame housing with tight envelopes, hard floors and cold external walls.

  • 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 Sweden.

02 / Data sheet

One specification sheet, the same in every market

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

Consultants get the raw data, not a sales sheet. That is the whole of our side of the job, and it is set out under working with acoustic consultants.

03 / On the ground

What decides the build-up in Sweden

  • Classes are written and verified

    Projects arrive with a class and someone checks it afterwards. Send us the target and we will say where our material sits against it.

  • Timber at scale

    Sweden builds tall in timber, and timber is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work.

  • Sealed through a long winter

    Ventilation runs constantly in closed buildings, so plant noise matters more than street noise.

  • A long country

    A site in the north has a real domestic leg. We quote it separately so the dates are honest.

  • School and campus buildings

    Classroom acoustics are regulated, and open plan learning areas make speech intelligibility the design target.

For a Sweden practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.

04 / Climate

The Sweden climate decides the material list

Sweden is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.

Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.

The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.

Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.

05 / Logistics

How material reaches a Sweden site

Supply into Sweden
Ships fromPalwal, Haryana, India
Arrives atGothenburg, then road onward to site
Dispatch4 to 7 working days
FreightSea via Gothenburg
PackingFlat packed with fixings, sets labelled by row so the install sequence matches the drawing.
Lead timeConfirmed against the drawing. Standard sizes 4 to 7 working days.

Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.

Sea freight into Gothenburg, then road onward to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.

The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.

Minimum order, ceiling baffles and clouds
Baffles and clouds500 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 / Straight talk

Where this goes wrong, said plainly

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • A claim of being local to Sweden

    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.

FAQ

Sweden: questions we are actually asked

Do you manufacture ceiling baffles and clouds in Sweden?

No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Sweden as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gothenburg, then road onward, with the domestic leg quoted separately because Sweden is a long country. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.

What do you look at first on a Sweden enquiry?

Projects arrive with a class and someone checks it afterwards. Send us the target and we will say where our material sits against it. Sweden builds tall in timber, and timber is light. Low frequency passes easily, so mass and decoupling do the work. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.

Is this the right material for Sweden conditions?

Sweden is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.

How does an order actually travel to Sweden?

ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Gothenburg, then road onward to site, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. The sea leg from India is long, so plan the full door to door window into the programme. We give real dates, not optimistic ones.

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.

How is the order packed and what is the minimum?

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.
