A PUF panel price per sq ft is what most buyers in India search for, and a price per sqm is what every factory invoice carries; the gap between the two has cost more than one buyer a lakh. The short answer first. On 23 September 2026 our factory price for a 50 mm PUF roof panel with 0.5 / 0.3 mm sheets was ₹ 1,269 per sqm for orders of 3,000 sqm and above, ex-factory Kathua, GST and freight extra (factory prices on 23 Sep 2026). Everything about that rate is per square metre, and so is the invoice. Today's figure is on the live factory price board.
Why PUF panels are priced per sqm
A panel is made to a width and cut to a length. Our roof panel covers 1.00 m of roof across its width; our wall panel covers 1.15 m. Multiply that by the cut length and you have the area of one panel in square metres, without any conversion. A 9 m roof panel is 9 sqm. A 6 m wall panel is 6.9 sqm.
Square feet would mean converting every panel, every slab and every invoice line by 10.764, and rounding each time. The factory, the truck and the drawing all work in metres; the rate follows.
PUF panel price per sq ft: the conversion, once
One square metre is 10.764 square feet. To turn a per-sqm rate into a per-sq-ft figure, divide by 10.764.
We price and bill per sqm. The figure on 23 Sep 2026 for the 50 mm roof panel with 0.5 / 0.3 mm sheets was ₹ 1,269 per sqm — about ₹ 118 per sq ft. The conversion is for reference only; the invoice is per sqm.
That is the only per-sq-ft figure in this article, and it is there so that a buyer with a square-foot budget can see roughly where the rate lands. Do not put it on an order.
Where square feet go wrong
| Mistake | What happens | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Comparing a per-sq-ft quote with a per-sqm rate | The per-sqm number looks ten times higher | Convert both to sqm before comparing |
| Measuring the roof in sq ft, ordering in sqm | Quantity lands short or long of a slab | Measure in metres: panels × length × chargeable width |
| Converting each panel and rounding | Small errors, many panels, real money | Convert the total once, if at all |
| Quoting the converted figure as "the rate" | The invoice does not match | The rate is per sqm; say so |
The rate in sqm, 23 Sep 2026

|---|---|---|---|
| Roof 30 mm | 0.5 / 0.3 | 1,111 | 1,131 |
| Roof 50 mm | 0.5 / 0.3 | 1,269 | 1,289 |
| Roof 80 mm | 0.5 / 0.3 | 1,559 | 1,579 |
| Wall 50 mm | 0.5 / 0.5 | 1,284 | 1,304 |

Working a square-foot building in sqm
A buyer has a 10,000 sq ft shed roof in mind. 10,000 ÷ 10.764 is about 929 sqm. In roof panels of 1.00 m chargeable width, that is 929 sqm of panel before overhangs and ridge detail. On 23 Sep 2026 that quantity fell in the 750 sqm trial slab of the 50 mm roof panel with 0.5 / 0.3 mm sheets, at ₹ 1,309 per sqm: a panel value of about ₹ 12,16,000, ex-factory Kathua, before GST and freight. The buyer's next question is whether rounding the order up to 1,500 sqm, at ₹ 1,289 per sqm, suits the project; the slab rule bills the whole order at the slab it reaches.
A quick reference for the square-foot mind
For a buyer who thinks in square feet, three conversions worth keeping on the desk, all from the same day's figures and all for reference only:
| Panel, 3,000 sqm slab, 23 Sep 2026 | ₹/sqm (the rate) | ÷ 10.764 (for reference) |
|---|---|---|
| Roof 30 mm, 0.5 / 0.3 mm | 1,111 | about 103 |
| Roof 50 mm, 0.5 / 0.3 mm | 1,269 | about 118 |
| Wall 50 mm, 0.5 / 0.5 mm | 1,284 | about 119 |

And the slabs in square feet, for the same purpose: 750 sqm is about 8,070 sq ft; 1,500 sqm about 16,150 sq ft; 3,000 sqm about 32,290 sq ft. An order is placed in sqm.
Frequently asked questions
What is the PUF sheet price per square feet?
We price and bill per sqm; the one conversion is in the article above. A "PUF sheet" usually means a PUF sandwich panel, and its rate is per square metre of panel on the chargeable width.
How many square feet is one PUF panel?
A roof panel is 1.00 m wide on chargeable width, so a 9 m panel is 9 sqm, about 97 sq ft. A wall panel is 1.15 m wide, so a 6 m panel is 6.9 sqm, about 74 sq ft.
Can I order in square feet?
Orders are placed in sqm, per panel type, against the volume slabs. Convert the total once and order in sqm.
