Specifications
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Smoked oak veneer slats over MDF core with recycled acoustic felt backing |
| Finish | Smoked oak veneer |
| Profile | Vertical slat |
| Treatment | Smoked (colour treatment to veneer) |
| Use Class | Internal use only |
What it's used for
- Feature and statement walls in living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices
- Acoustic treatment in meeting rooms, offices, and co-working spaces
- Bar, restaurant, and retail fit-outs where both appearance and sound control matter
- Home cinema and media room walls where echo reduction is a practical requirement
Fitting and handling
Allow panels to acclimatise in the installation room for at least 48 hours before fixing, keeping them flat and away from direct heat sources or damp conditions. Panels can be fixed directly to a clean, flat wall surface using panel adhesive or countersunk screws through the backing; butt panels tightly edge to edge for a continuous slat appearance. Check walls for plumb and level before starting, as any unevenness will telegraph through the finished surface.
FAQ
Can smoked oak acoustic slat wall panels be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
No. These panels are rated for internal dry use only. The MDF core and veneer construction are not suitable for areas with high humidity, steam, or moisture. For utility rooms or areas near cooking zones, ensure adequate ventilation and keep panels well away from direct water contact.
How do I cut acoustic slat wall panels to size on site?
A fine-toothed circular saw or jigsaw works well. Score the veneer face lightly with a sharp knife before cutting to reduce breakout. Always cut with the veneer face upwards when using a hand saw, or face down when using a circular saw, to keep the finished surface clean.
Do I need special adhesive to fit smoked oak slat wall panels?
A grab adhesive suitable for MDF and acoustic felt is recommended, such as a solvent-free panel adhesive applied with a cartridge gun. Mechanical fixings such as screws through the backing board can be used alongside adhesive for added security, particularly on larger installations.
