Manufactured in India, supplied in Warsaw
Wood wool acoustic panels in Warsaw
We manufacture wood wool acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Warsaw. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gdansk, then road to the city, with the inland leg written into the dates we quote.

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 / Start here
What this is, and what it changes in a Warsaw room
Wood fibre bound into a rigid board with an open texture. Robust, paintable and used where the surface takes knocks, which is why it ends up in schools, sports halls and plant rooms.
Work reaching us from Warsaw is mostly tower office floors, service centres, residential towers, hotels, schools, clinics.
Panel block housing with concrete walls that carry mass but no impact isolation, alongside new concrete towers with hard finishes.
- Direct fix Mechanically fixed to the soffit or wall. Durable and simple.
- On a cavity Mounted on battens with an air gap, which is where the low mid performance comes from.
- With a porous backing Board over mineral backing where the room needs more than the board alone gives.
- What it will not do At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for wood wool panels are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Warsaw.
02 / Specification
The published figures, unchanged by location
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.
- Natural20 mm. Plant rooms, back of house, industrial
- Painted20 mm. Classrooms, halls, visible ceilings

Where a consultant is already engaged on a Warsaw 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 Warsaw do to the specification
- Floors full of people talking
Service centres and call floors put hundreds of simultaneous conversations in one room. Absorption alone will not deliver privacy there. Ceiling, screens and layout have to work together.
- A very large office pipeline
Warsaw builds office space at a pace few European cities match, which means the same detail repeated across many floors and buildings. Consistency across the order is the whole value.
- New towers, hard surfaces
Glass, raised floors and exposed slabs give sound nowhere to land, so the ceiling plane has to carry the room.
- Residential towers going up fast
New apartment towers share slabs and walls. Footfall and speech between units is easier to solve on the drawing than after the tenants arrive.
- Assembly and performance rooms
Church buildings, civic halls and auditoria are hard volumes with long reverberation.
- School and campus buildings
School buildings are hard surfaced with long corridors, and gymnasiums double as assembly halls.
For a Warsaw practice, the useful thing is a detail you can put in a drawing set, not a brochure. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
Durability in Warsaw, before acoustics is discussed
Warsaw 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 / Logistics
Supply into Warsaw, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Gdansk, then road to Warsaw |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea via Gdansk |
| Packing | Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days for standard sizes. |
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 Gdansk, then road to Warsaw. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export.
| Any finish | 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m |
|---|
A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels.

What we will tell you that a reseller will not
-
The wrong product for the problem
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
-
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.
-
Local approvals that nobody actually holds
We hold no Warsaw certification and we will not borrow one. The test data we publish is ours, and we will send the reports rather than describe them.
Warsaw: questions we are actually asked
Where are the wood wool acoustic panels you supply to Warsaw actually made?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Warsaw as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped into Gdansk, then road to the city, with the inland leg written into the dates we quote. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Warsaw build-up differ from anywhere else?
Service centres and call floors put hundreds of simultaneous conversations in one room. Absorption alone will not deliver privacy there. Ceiling, screens and layout have to work together. Warsaw builds office space at a pace few European cities match, which means the same detail repeated across many floors and buildings. Consistency across the order is the whole value. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Warsaw climate affect this product?
Warsaw 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.
How does an order actually travel to Warsaw?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Gdansk, then road to Warsaw, 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.
Where do wood wool acoustic panels fail to help?
At 20 mm it is a mid and high frequency absorber, not a bass solution, and painting it heavily will close the surface and reduce what it does. If a room needs low frequency control, depth or a cavity has to come from somewhere.
What is the minimum order and how is it packed?
The same 500 sq ft minimum applies on export. Any finish, 500 sq ft, about 46 sq m. A panel is 1200 x 600 mm, which is 0.72 sq m or about 7.75 sq ft, so the minimum is roughly 65 panels. Palletised flat, edge protected. Boards are rigid but the edges chip, so they travel protected.
