Manufactured in India, supplied in Udaipur
SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl in Udaipur
We manufacture soundBlanket mass loaded vinyl 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.

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 material
What this material is and where it earns its place in Udaipur
A limp, high density sheet that adds mass to a partition, floor or duct without adding depth. It is the barrier product, not an absorber, and it is the right answer when the problem is noise passing through a structure.
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, decoupled Independent stud, membrane between the boards, cavity absorption, two boards. The membrane is one part of a system, never the whole answer.
- Floor, floating Membrane under a resilient layer and a floating deck, so impact energy is broken before it reaches the slab.
- Duct and plant wrap Membrane wrapped over the duct with a decoupling layer beneath, sealed at every lap.
- What it will not do Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for SoundBlanket MLV are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Udaipur.
02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
We publish one data sheet for every market. If a supplier quotes you a different figure for the same product in a different city, one of the two numbers is wrong.
- 2.5 mmSTC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m. Ducts, light partitions, retrofit where depth is tight
- 4 mmSTC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m. Party walls, floors, plant rooms, the common specification
- 6 mm12.6 kg per sq m. Machine enclosures and low frequency problems
| Density | 2100 kg per cubic metre |
|---|---|
| 2.5 mm | STC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m |
| 4 mm | STC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m |
| 6 mm | 12.6 kg per sq m, STC on request |
| Roll size | 5 x 1.2 m, 6 sq m per roll |

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.
03 / In this market
What we see driving Udaipur briefs
- 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.
- The housing stock
Stone and RC construction with stone floors throughout, in a dry dusty climate where dust ingress matters more than damp.
- 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 / Durability
Why the climate in Udaipur changes the material, not the target
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.
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 Udaipur, with real dates
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | two days |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | two days |
| Packing | Rolls on core tubes, wrapped and end capped, 5 x 1.2 m. Weights on the packing list, because a full roll is heavy and site access matters. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days. Full container quantities scheduled against the vessel. |
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.
10 rolls for 2.5 mm and 4 mm. Other thicknesses are made to order at 10 tonnes per thickness.
| 2.5 mm | 10 rolls, 60 sq m, about 315 kg |
|---|---|
| 4 mm | 10 rolls, 60 sq m, about 504 kg |
| 6 mm and other thicknesses | 10 tonnes per thickness |
A SoundBlanket roll is 5 x 1.2 m, which is 6 sq m. At 2100 kg per cubic metre a roll weighs about 31.5 kg at 2.5 mm and about 50.4 kg at 4 mm, so a 10 roll minimum is 60 sq m and roughly 315 kg at 2.5 mm or 504 kg at 4 mm.
06 / Worth knowing
The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
-
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 Udaipur
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.
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.
Why would a Udaipur build-up differ from anywhere else?
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.
Will this material last in the Udaipur climate?
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.
What is the delivery time into 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.
Where do soundBlanket mass loaded vinyl fail to help?
Mass fixed hard to an existing wall gives far less than the same mass on an independent leaf. If we are told the wall cannot be thickened, we will say what the membrane will and will not achieve rather than quote the laboratory figure and let the site find out.
What quantity do we have to order, and in what packaging?
10 rolls for 2.5 mm and 4 mm. Other thicknesses are made to order at 10 tonnes per thickness. 2.5 mm, 10 rolls, 60 sq m, about 315 kg. 4 mm, 10 rolls, 60 sq m, about 504 kg. 6 mm and other thicknesses, 10 tonnes per thickness. A SoundBlanket roll is 5 x 1.2 m, which is 6 sq m. At 2100 kg per cubic metre a roll weighs about 31.5 kg at 2.5 mm and about 50.4 kg at 4 mm, so a 10 roll minimum is 60 sq m and roughly 315 kg at 2.5 mm or 504 kg at 4 mm. Rolls on core tubes, wrapped and end capped, 5 x 1.2 m. Weights on the packing list, because a full roll is heavy and site access matters.
