Transforming Your Space with Slat Wall Panelling: A Comprehensive Guide

Slat wall panelling is revolutionising modern interior design, offering a perfect blend of style and functionality. In this comprehensive guide, we go into a bit more detail, showing you how to install our pre-made slat wall panels – a product that seamlessly combines aesthetic appeal with practicality and sustainability.

Slat Decor’s wall panels are constructed from two core materials: 12mm thick MDF and paper foil wrap, both FSC certified, ensuring sustainability and minimizing environmental impact. The MDF originates from southern Ireland, manufactured through a process of breaking down tree trunks into fibers, bound with resin, and then compressed and heated into sturdy boards. These boards are then meticulously cut and shaped in our factory to meet precise product specifications.

The charm of our panels lies in their elegant finish, provided by the paper foils supplied by renowned German companies. These foils, arriving as rolls of cellulose paper impregnated with resins, are finished with a wood grain effect, adding both aesthetic value and a protective layer. Notably, the paper foils, preferred over traditional wood veneers, offer a softer touch, smoother corners, and hassle-free maintenance, requiring only occasional dusting.

Our commitment to the environment is evident in every aspect of our product. The FSC certification of our materials ensures responsible sourcing. Moreover, the eco-friendly nature of our panels is enhanced by the felt backing, exclusively developed for us by a Yorkshire mill, which adds to the product’s fire safety rating of ‘Class B – s2 – d0’.
