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 / What it is
The material, and what it actually does on a Vienna 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 Vienna is mostly gründerzeit apartments, offices, studios, restaurants, clinics, schools, hotels.
Gruenderzeit blocks have solid masonry walls and timber joist floors, so footfall carries even where airborne noise does not. Newer stock is concrete and much harder inside.
- 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.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Vienna.
02 / Specification sheet
One specification sheet, the same in every market
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.

On a Vienna job with a consultant involved, our part is material that matches the submitted data. See working with acoustic consultants.
03 / In this market
What we see driving Vienna briefs
- Gründerzeit rooms are tall and hard
High ceilings and lime plaster hold sound for a long time. A room can look perfect and still be unusable for speech until something absorbent goes high on the wall or across the ceiling.
- Timber floors between apartments
Footfall travels down through the joists into the flat below. A resilient layer under the finish does far more than anything applied to the ceiling underneath.
- Quiet hours are taken seriously
Neighbour complaints here are not shrugged off. The isolation layer is what protects a home studio, a practice room or a late venue from becoming somebody else problem.
- Trams and the Ring
Ground level trams and traffic put low frequency into the structure. Panels on a wall will not touch it, and we will say so rather than sell them.
- The housing stock
Gruenderzeit blocks have solid masonry walls and timber joist floors, so footfall carries even where airborne noise does not. Newer stock is concrete and much harder inside.
- The studio and content scene
A strong classical and recording tradition means measured targets are expected rather than adjectives.
If you are specifying for a Vienna project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
Why the climate in Vienna changes the material, not the target
Vienna is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would.
The risk we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
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 Vienna, with real dates
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Koper or Hamburg, then rail and road into Vienna |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Koper or Hamburg |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight into Koper or Hamburg, then rail and road into Vienna. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.
06 / Worth knowing
Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
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 Vienna certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Vienna: questions we are actually asked
Are these soundproof curtains made in Vienna?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Vienna as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and routed through Koper or Hamburg, then rail and road into the city, with the inland leg written into the dates we quote. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What do you look at first on a Vienna enquiry?
High ceilings and lime plaster hold sound for a long time. A room can look perfect and still be unusable for speech until something absorbent goes high on the wall or across the ceiling. Footfall travels down through the joists into the flat below. A resilient layer under the finish does far more than anything applied to the ceiling underneath. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Is this the right material for Vienna conditions?
Vienna is cool and damp, with long heating seasons and cold external walls. Cold wall build-ups and long heating seasons mean interstitial condensation is a real risk behind any lining. PET felt is unaffected by damp air and will not feed mould where a fabric-faced mineral product would. The failure we design against here is condensation behind linings in older, poorly insulated stock.
When would material land on a Vienna site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Koper or Hamburg, then rail and road into Vienna, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
When are soundproof curtains the wrong purchase?
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.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export. 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
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.
