All of our panels are 100% waterproof (apart from the Feature Wall + and Cabana range) and can be used in bathrooms.

When fitting in shower/wet areas we recommend using a thin bead of silicone applied to the joint of the panel.  Please refer to the install guide.

All of our panels are fire rated to test standards EN 13501-1:2010+A1: 2014.

Yes.  As long as the tiles are fixed securely to the wall, they can be installed directly onto the tiles.

First measure the width of the walls you’d like to cover. Then divide this by the width of the panel. For example, if the width of the wall is 3m and you’re using the 375mm wide panels you would need 8 panels (3000mm divided by 375mm).

This can vary depending on your wall surface. A general guide would be two tube’s per linear metre.

The panels are fixed onto your walls or ceiling using a solvent free adhesive or low modulus silicone and small self-tapping screws or staples.

Cut the panel to size and cover the back of the panel with adhesive/silicone in a zig zag style (not dot and dab). Press the panel firmly into place on the wall.

Secure using self-tapping screws (or staples) along the tongue section of the panel. The next panel will then interlock covering the screws/staples.

Cover the back of the next panel in adhesive/silicone and slot in the tongue and groove and repeat until the wall is finished.

If being used in a wet/shower area, we recommend using a thin bead of silicone applied to the back joint of the panel.

The panels are easily cut using a fine toothed saw or fine toothed jigsaw. A Stanley knife can also be used for trimming. Hole cutters can be used for any pipes or downlights.

Yes. Everything from toothbrush holders to shower screens and basins. When installing larger items to the wall and panels you will need to ensure there is enough support from the wall and the correct fixings are used.

Yes downlights can be used with the panels. Any lights must be fitted using low voltage transformers, low wattage bulbs (35w or below) or LED’s.

The panels can be easily wiped down with a cloth using warm soapy water. Abrasives or bleaches should not be used on the panels.
All of our panels are for internal use only.
