Manufactured in India, supplied in Udaipur
Acoustic panels in Udaipur
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Udaipur. Almost everything we supply to Udaipur is hospitality, and most of it is for rooms where events happen rather than rooms where people sleep.
- Plain PET felt
- 9 to 24 mm, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, up to 2440 x 4270 mm, 1200 to 3600 GSM
- Printed felt
- 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing
- Grooved panels
- Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- 4 to 7 working days standard
- Minimum order
- From 10 panels
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
Manufacturer, not reseller. We hold no local approvals and will not imply we do. You get the price the factory quotes, material that matches across a large order, and advice that sometimes talks you out of a purchase.
01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Udaipur job
The full absorber range rather than one product: plain PET felt, printed felt, grooved panels and fabric finishes, chosen by how the room is used and how it has to look.
Work reaching us from Udaipur is mostly hotels and resorts, banquet and event halls, restaurants, guest rooms, offices, clinics.
Stone and RC construction with stone floors throughout, in a dry dusty climate where dust ingress matters more than damp.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Udaipur.

02 / The numbers
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces
| Plain PET felt | 9 to 24 mm, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, up to 2440 x 4270 mm, 1200 to 3600 GSM |
|---|---|
| Printed felt | 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing |
| Grooved panels | Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber |
| Test standard | ASTM C423 |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Udaipur project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.

What the buildings in Udaipur do to the specification
- Event halls are the product
A banquet space has to hold amplified music and let a speech be understood. Those pull in opposite directions unless the ceiling is handled properly.
- Guest rooms need isolation, not treatment
Corridor noise and the room next door cause more complaints than the room acoustics. Door and wall details do that work.
- Heritage fabric stays
The structure usually cannot change, so everything has to be internal, shallow and ideally reversible.
- Season dates do not move
Wedding season is fixed. We give real dispatch and transit dates so the fit-out is not waiting on a truck.
- School and campus buildings
School buildings are stone and concrete with high ceilings and courtyards that amplify break time noise.
- 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.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Climate and durability
The Udaipur climate decides the material list
Udaipur 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.
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 / Route to site
What the route into Udaipur actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two days |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
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 seven hundred and fifty kilometres, normally two days on a dedicated truck.
From 10 panels for 9 mm EchoCore 15. Other grades and thicknesses carry their own minimum.
| 9 mm EchoCore 15, 1500 GSM | 10 panels, 320 sq ft |
|---|---|
| 9 mm EchoPro 18, 1800 GSM | 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft |
| 9 mm EchoMax 22, 2200 GSM | 100 panels, 3,200 sq ft |
| 12 mm, 2400 GSM | 30 panels, 960 sq ft |
| 18 mm, 3000 GSM | 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft |
| 24 mm, 3600 GSM | 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.

Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
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.
-
Suppliers who imply a Udaipur 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.

The material in real interiors
Udaipur: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Udaipur 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 Udaipur as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Almost everything we supply to Udaipur is hospitality, and most of it is for rooms where events happen rather than rooms where people sleep. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Udaipur enquiry?
A banquet space has to hold amplified music and let a speech be understood. Those pull in opposite directions unless the ceiling is handled properly. Corridor noise and the room next door cause more complaints than the room acoustics. Door and wall details do that work. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Udaipur weather shorten the life of this material?
Udaipur 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 Udaipur?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: two 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.
What will acoustic panels not do?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
From 10 panels for 9 mm EchoCore 15. Other grades and thicknesses carry their own minimum. 9 mm EchoCore 15, 1500 GSM, 10 panels, 320 sq ft. 9 mm EchoPro 18, 1800 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft. 9 mm EchoMax 22, 2200 GSM, 100 panels, 3,200 sq ft. 12 mm, 2400 GSM, 30 panels, 960 sq ft. 18 mm, 3000 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft. 24 mm, 3600 GSM, 50 panels, 1,600 sq ft. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.

Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
