Venue and restaurant acoustics in Udaipur
Two different jobs that get quoted as one: keeping bass inside the building for the neighbours, and making the room comfortable enough that guests can talk. Solving one does nothing for the other. Palace hotels, banquet halls and auditoria are very large stone volumes with long decay times.
- Containment
- Low frequency through structure to flats above and beside. Mass, decoupling and a sealed envelope.
- Table level comfort
- Absorption at the ceiling so guests stop raising their voices at each other.
- Entrance and service
- Doors, lobbies and extract paths, which is where most of the leakage actually is.

What you are buying, and what it fixes in Udaipur
Two different jobs that get quoted as one: keeping bass inside the building for the neighbours, and making the room comfortable enough that guests can talk. Solving one does nothing for the other.
Palace hotels, banquet halls and auditoria are very large stone volumes with long decay times.
Work reaching us from Udaipur is mostly hotels and resorts, banquet and event halls, restaurants, guest rooms, offices, clinics.
- 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.
- Containment Low frequency through structure to flats above and beside. Mass, decoupling and a sealed envelope.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for venue soundproofing are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Udaipur.

02 / The build-up
The stack, in the order it is installed
-
Layer 1
SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl
A limp, high density sheet that adds mass to a partition, floor or duct without adding depth. In Udaipur, split units, VRF outdoor banks and diesel generator sets sit close to occupied areas, often on the same terrace as a bedroom. Generator enclosure and condenser screening are the recurring jobs.
Wall, decoupled. Independent stud, membrane between the boards, cavity absorption, two boards. The membrane is one part of a system, never the whole answer.
-
Layer 2
Acoustic panels
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. In Udaipur, palace hotels, banquet halls and auditoria are very large stone volumes with long decay times.
Mixed finish. Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
-
Layer 3
Wooden slat acoustic panels
Timber slats on an acoustic backing. In Udaipur, school buildings are stone and concrete with high ceilings and courtyards that amplify break time noise.
Slats on a cavity. Backing plus an air gap behind moves absorption lower, which matters in music rooms.
Architects working in Udaipur usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
03 / In this market
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.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Palace hotels, banquet halls and auditoria are very large stone volumes with long decay times.

Containment
Low frequency through structure to flats above and beside. Mass, decoupling and a sealed envelope. 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.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, 2100 kg per cubic metre
- Acoustic panels, 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing
- Wooden slat acoustic panels, 2440 x 192 mm and 2440 x 128 mm
-
Table level comfort
Absorption at the ceiling so guests stop raising their voices at each other. Corridor noise and the room next door cause more complaints than the room acoustics. Door and wall details do that work.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, STC 30, 5.25 kg per sq m
- Acoustic panels, Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Wooden slat acoustic panels, 14, 16 and 18 mm
-
Entrance and service
Doors, lobbies and extract paths, which is where most of the leakage actually is. The structure usually cannot change, so everything has to be internal, shallow and ideally reversible.
- SoundBlanket mass loaded vinyl, STC 34, 8.4 kg per sq m
- Acoustic panels, ASTM C423
- Wooden slat acoustic panels, 96 sq ft per unit
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.
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 material list before acoustics is 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 failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
On a Udaipur job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
06 / Before you buy
What we watch go wrong on jobs like this
-
Panels on the wall as a neighbour noise solution
Small on the drawing, expensive on site, and almost always found after handover.
-
A lobby with both doors able to open at once
A 6 mm undercut under a door leaves a hole the size of a brick. The wall around it is then decorative.
-
Extract ducting that bypasses every wall you built
Enclose the machine, break the vibration path, then deal with what is left. Doing it in the other order costs more and achieves less.
-
Treating it as a generic Udaipur job
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.
05 / Getting it there
Supply into Udaipur, start to site

| To site | two days |
| Support | Drawings, build-ups, BOQ and material that arrives complete |
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.
Questions from Udaipur projects
What makes venue and restaurant acoustics different in Udaipur?
Palace hotels, banquet halls and auditoria are very large stone volumes with long decay times. 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.
Where should the budget go first on a Udaipur project?
Containment. Low frequency through structure to flats above and beside. Mass, decoupling and a sealed envelope. Table level comfort. Absorption at the ceiling so guests stop raising their voices at each other.
Do you have an office or installation team in Udaipur?
No. We manufacture in India and supply into Udaipur. We give you drawings, build-ups, a BOQ and material that arrives complete, and we will tell you plainly when a job needs a local contractor we cannot be.
How does material get to a Udaipur site?
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 goes wrong most often on this kind of project?
Panels on the wall as a neighbour noise solution. A lobby with both doors able to open at once.
What do you need from us to quote?
A plan, a section through the critical partition or ceiling, and what the room is for. From that we can give a build-up and a BOQ rather than a price per square foot.

Send the drawings, get a straight answer
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.
