PVC wall panel

Practical and easy to install, PVC panels come in a multitude of Colours and finishes: matte, smooth, marble imitation or wood effect. They are resistant to moisture, heat and splashes, making them a perfect choice for wet rooms. Lightweight and simple to maintain, they can be cleaned simply with soapy water. Installation is quick thanks to a gluing or clipping system, and they also provide excellent thermal insulation...

Metal wall panel

With its elegant and resistant finish, the metal wall panel – often aluminum – integrates perfectly into modern or urban decors. It brings a sophisticated and original touch to each room. It comes in several Colours and patterns to adapt to different industrial and contemporary styles.

Velvet wall panel

The velvet wall panel stands out for its soft texture and luxurious appearance. Available in a wide range of Colours, it offers a variety of shades, from the most subtle to the most intense, to suit all tastes. You can choose between different types of velvet, ranging from matte to glossy, to add a unique and refined dimension to your interior.

Leather wall panel

Chic and timeless, leather dresses walls with elegance. Available in a variety of textures – from smooth to textured leather – and in a range of Colours from neutral tones to deeper shades, it brings a touch of unique sophistication to your interior. This noble material, both durable and easy to maintain, adapts to different decorative styles, offering a modern and luxurious look to every space.

Natural stone panel

Natural stone panels offer unmatched authenticity, composed of thin sheets of genuine stones such as slate, marble or travertine. With surfaces that vary between polished smoothness and a more raw, natural look, these panels are fixed to a fiberglass support, creating a lightweight, robust and aesthetically refined covering. They bring a unique touch, adapting to both classic interiors and contemporary decors.

How to choose a decorative wall panel?

The choice of decorative wall panel should be adapted to the room in which you wish to install it.

For the living room, wooden panels bring a modern and warm touch, while leather ones add a luxurious charm. If you're looking for a bolder style, a 3D wall panel will bring a unique dimension to your space.
In the bedroom, opt for wooden panels for a luxurious atmosphere, or choose velvet panels, pleasant to touch and elegant. By installing them over the entire height of the wall behind the bed, you'll create an intimate atmosphere while giving the impression of spaciousness to the room.
For shower wall panels or bathroom, favor materials such as metal, plastic or natural stone, designed to withstand moisture durably.

How to install a decorative wall panel?

To install a decorative wall panel, it is essential to properly prepare the surface. Clean it thoroughly, degrease it, and ensure it is smooth and flat. Once this step is completed, you can proceed with the installation of the panel.

The mounting method varies depending on the type of panel used. Different solutions are possible depending on the material and weight of the panel.

If you choose light panels, such as PVC or MDF, you can generally fix them with a glue specially designed for these materials. Apply the glue evenly on the back of the panels, then place them on the prepared surface, taking care to align them and fix them firmly.
For heavier panels, such as those in natural stone, marble or ceramic, it is advisable to use a strong adhesive or special mortar to ensure fixation. You can also resort to screws and dowels, especially if the panels are thick, to guarantee better stability.
As for solid wood or metal panels, fixation with screws and dowels is often necessary, as glue alone might not be sufficient. For panels in plastic or composite materials, a clip fastening system can offer a quick solution without requiring drilling.
Double-sided adhesive strips are suitable for light panels, but their long-term maintenance may be limited.

In summary, the choice of fixation method depends on the panel material and the surface to be covered. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure safe and durable installation.

Finally, don't forget to follow the instructions provided with the product to ensure optimal installation.
