Manufactured in India, supplied in Varanasi
Soundproof curtains in Varanasi
We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Varanasi. Varanasi is hospitality in a city where the streets are too narrow for a truck, so access planning matters as much as the material.

This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Varanasi job
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
Work reaching us from Varanasi is mostly hotels and guest houses, assembly halls, colleges, hospitals, restaurants, offices.
Independent houses and builder flats in brick and RC frame, often built floor by floor for different households, so the slab between them was never detailed as a separation.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.

02 / Specification
The numbers, and they do not move by city
These figures are published and they do not move. The thing worth arguing about is not the number on the sheet, it is which grade and which build-up suits the room you are treating.
- Standard5.5 kg per sq m. Openings, stages, temporary partitions
| Build-up | 800 GSM face, foam, 3 mm SoundBlanket MLV core, foam, 800 GSM face |
|---|---|

| Reduction | Up to 30 dB |
| STC | 30 |
| Test standard | ASTM E90 |
| Standard sizes | 8 x 4 ft and 5 x 4 ft |
If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What we see driving Varanasi briefs
- Humid through the season
PET felt does not hold moisture or feed mould, which matters where mineral products sag within a couple of seasons.
- Access decides the delivery
Narrow lanes and no vehicle access to many properties. We size and split pallets to what can be carried, which saves a wasted delivery.
- Guest rooms in old buildings
Thick masonry but thin internal partitions, and corridors that carry everything. Door and partition detailing does the work.
- Assembly and event spaces
Large halls where speech has to survive a crowd, usually in hard masonry with high ceilings.
- The housing stock
Independent houses and builder flats in brick and RC frame, often built floor by floor for different households, so the slab between them was never detailed as a separation.
- 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.
Architects working in Varanasi usually need the build-up before the product. We will draw the section and mark what does the work. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
The Varanasi climate decides the material list
Varanasi 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.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Logistics
What the route into Varanasi actually looks like
| Made at | Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana |
|---|---|
| Reaches site in | a day |
| Dispatch | 2 to 4 working days |
| To site | a day |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
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 eight hundred kilometres, normally next day on a dedicated truck. Delivery into the old city needs planning and we will ask about access.
5 curtains.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.
06 / Before you buy
Four honest warnings before you buy
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Varanasi certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Varanasi: questions we are actually asked
Are these soundproof curtains made in Varanasi?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Varanasi as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Varanasi is hospitality in a city where the streets are too narrow for a truck, so access planning matters as much as the material. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Varanasi enquiry?
Narrow lanes and no vehicle access to many properties. We size and split pallets to what can be carried, which saves a wasted delivery. Thick masonry but thin internal partitions, and corridors that carry everything. Door and partition detailing does the work. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Does Varanasi weather shorten the life of this material?
Varanasi 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.
What is the delivery time into Varanasi?
made at: Our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, reaches site in: a day, 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 soundproof curtains not do?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
5 curtains. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.
Next step
Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
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.
