01 / Start here
The product, described honestly, for a Sydney brief
A tile carpet with a dense polyester face on a felt backing. It absorbs at the floor and, more usefully, kills footfall and chair scrape at the point they are generated.
Work reaching us from Sydney is mostly apartment developments, offices, venues, schools, clinics, studios.
Timber frame in detached housing, concrete in apartments. Apartment party walls and slabs are the source of most complaints, and impact noise needs a resilient layer.
- Loose lay on tackifier Tiles lifted individually for access under a raised floor, which is why tile beats broadloom in an office.
- Over a resilient underlay Where impact noise to the floor below is the actual complaint, the underlay does that work, not the carpet.
- Zoned Carpet in the circulation and meeting zones, hard floor elsewhere, so the treatment sits where the noise is made.
- What it will not do Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for acoustic carpet and rugs are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Sydney.
02 / Specification sheet
The published figures, unchanged by location
The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.
- Standard tile4 mm. Offices, classrooms, studios, corridors
| Tile size | 500 x 500 mm |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 4 mm |
| Face | High density polyester |
| Backing | Felt |
| Pack coverage | 64 sq ft per pack |
| Boxed | 20 kg, 55 x 55 x 15 cm |
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 / Local conditions
What we see driving Sydney briefs
- Apartments at volume
The same separating detail repeated across large developments. When it underperforms it underperforms in every unit, and that becomes a defect conversation.
- Mixed construction
Concrete frames with lightweight internal walls. The frame blocks, the partitions often do not, and people assume the opposite.
- Venues under homes
Late trading beneath apartments built around them, so the separating floor decides the hours.
- A long sea leg
One of the longer routes we run. Ordering to a real schedule matters, so we quote the full window.
- Assembly and performance rooms
School halls, community centres and church buildings carry assembly, performance and sport in one hard volume.
- The housing stock
Timber frame in detached housing, concrete in apartments. Apartment party walls and slabs are the source of most complaints, and impact noise needs a resilient layer.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Sydney climate decides the material list
Sydney is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH.
The risk we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
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 / Logistics
What the route into Sydney actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Port Botany, then a short road run to site |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Port Botany |
| Packing | Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access. |
| Lead time | 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 Port Botany, then a short road run to site. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same minimums apply on export.
| Carpet tiles | 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m |
|---|---|
| Rugs | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg.
06 / Straight talk
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
-
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 Sydney 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.
Sydney: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Sydney factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Sydney as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Port Botany. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What changes the specification on a Sydney job?
The same separating detail repeated across large developments. When it underperforms it underperforms in every unit, and that becomes a defect conversation. Concrete frames with lightweight internal walls. The frame blocks, the partitions often do not, and people assume the opposite. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Sydney climate affect this product?
Sydney is hot summers, mild winters and a distinct wet season. PET felt handles the wet months without absorbing moisture or feeding mould. Timber and wood wool want a ventilated cavity and a stable indoor RH. The failure we design against here is wet-season humidity behind linings.
How does an order actually travel to Sydney?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Port Botany, then a short road run 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 acoustic carpet and rugs fail to help?
Carpet fixes footfall and chair noise and takes the edge off a live room. It will not deliver a reverberation target on its own, because the ceiling is almost always the bigger surface.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
The same minimums apply on export. Carpet tiles, 320 sq ft, about 30 sq m. Rugs, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A pack of tiles covers 64 sq ft and weighs 20 kg boxed, so the tile minimum is exactly five packs and about 100 kg. Boxed, 64 sq ft per pack, 20 kg. Easy to carry up a stair, which matters on fit-out sites with no lift access.
