Karmah Trading & Services (KTS), founded in 2004 in Doha, Qatar, is the only company in the country that manufactures acoustic panels entirely on Qatari soil. Our Fabric-Wrapped Acoustic Panels are the flagship product of the KTS Acoustic Studio division, trusted by architects, interior designers, and facility managers across Qatar for delivering measurable noise reduction in commercial and institutional environments.
Each Fabric-Wrapped Acoustic Panel is built around a high-density fiberglass core — available in 25 mm, 50 mm, and 75 mm thicknesses — that achieves a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of up to 1.05. The core is precision-cut at our Doha production facility and wrapped in your choice of over 200 acoustic-grade fabrics, including Guilford of Maine, Camira, and locally sourced textiles. Because the panels are made in Qatar, lead times are dramatically shorter than imported alternatives, often just 10 to 14 working days from order confirmation to delivery anywhere in Qatar.
The panels are designed to address reverberation and echo in spaces where speech intelligibility is critical. In open-plan offices in Doha's West Bay business district, our panels have reduced reverberation time (RT60) by an average of 1.2 seconds, according to post-installation testing conducted by KTS engineers. In mosques, where clear Quran recitation is essential, our panels balance sound absorption with the aesthetic requirements of Islamic interior design, offering custom printed fabric options that integrate seamlessly with geometric patterns and calligraphy.
Every panel is manufactured under our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, ensuring consistent density, dimensional accuracy (tolerance ±1 mm), and fabric tension. The panels also carry a Class A fire rating per ASTM E84 (Flame Spread Index ≤ 25, Smoke Developed Index ≤ 450), making them compliant with Qatar Civil Defence requirements for commercial and public buildings.
Installation options include impaling clips for flush wall mounting, Z-clips for easy removal and maintenance, suspension wires for ceiling clouds, and adhesive mounting for lightweight configurations. Our installation team, based in Doha, handles projects of all sizes — from a single boardroom to multi-floor office fit-outs — and provides post-installation acoustic testing upon request.
Applications for Fabric-Wrapped Acoustic Panels span virtually every interior environment in Qatar: corporate offices, government buildings, educational institutions (universities, schools, and training centres), healthcare facilities (hospitals, clinics, and rehabilitation centres), mosques and prayer halls, five-star hotels and restaurants, home theatres, recording studios, and broadcast facilities.
KTS Acoustic Studio holds ISO 14001:2015 environmental certification. Our manufacturing process minimises waste through precision CNC cutting, and offcuts are recycled into secondary acoustic products. The fabrics we use are low-VOC and meet indoor air quality standards, contributing to GSAS (Global Sustainability Assessment System) credits for projects seeking green building certification in Qatar.
When you choose KTS Fabric-Wrapped Acoustic Panels, you are investing in a product that is designed, tested, and manufactured in Doha by a company with over two decades of experience in the Qatari market. Contact us at +974 44505001 or karmah@kts-qatar.com for a free acoustic consultation.
