The Story
The Light Oak Acoustic Slat Wall Panel (WPKT9) is a real wood veneer panel designed to reduce echo and improve room acoustics while adding a clean, vertical-slat finish to interior walls. Each panel features oak veneer slats bonded to an MDF core and mounted on a recycled acoustic backing felt.
Specifications
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Real oak wood veneer slats on MDF core with recycled acoustic backing |
| Finish | Light oak veneer |
| Profile | Vertical slat |
| Backing | Eco-friendly recycled acoustic felt |
| Use | Internal use only |
What it's used for
- Feature walls in living rooms and bedrooms where echo reduction and visual warmth are both priorities
- Home offices and media rooms where background noise and reverberation need controlling
- Hallways and reception areas where a contemporary timber finish suits a professional or residential setting
- Commercial interiors including restaurants, offices, and retail spaces where acoustic performance is required alongside a natural aesthetic
Fitting and handling
Allow panels to acclimatise in the installation room for at least 48 hours before fixing, as fluctuations in temperature and humidity can cause movement in veneer products. Panels can be fixed directly to a flat, dry wall surface using panel adhesive or appropriate timber screws through a batten framework - ensure the wall surface is level before installation to avoid gaps between panels. Store flat in dry conditions away from direct heat sources, and keep packaging on until ready to fit to protect the veneer face.
FAQ
Are these acoustic slat wall panels suitable for a home cinema or media room?
Yes. The recycled acoustic backing felt helps absorb mid and high frequency sound, reducing flutter echo in enclosed rooms. They work well in media rooms, home cinemas, and home offices where controlling reflected sound improves the listening environment.
Can I cut the panels to fit around sockets or irregular wall shapes?
The MDF core can be cut using a fine-tooth saw or track saw. Score the veneer face before cutting to reduce breakout. Always cut from the face side and use a sharp blade to keep the oak veneer clean at the edges.
How many panels do I need to cover a wall?
Measure your wall area in square metres and divide by the coverage area of a single panel. If you are unsure about quantities, the team at Nottage Timber Merchants can help you calculate requirements - contact us before ordering to avoid shortfalls or unnecessary waste.
