Tile Panels:

These panels can be combined to form various designs. Tile sizes usually range from 30 x 30 cm to 90 x 90 cm, allowing for creative layout possibilities. Tile panels are typically fixed using adhesives, making installation a bit more challenging.

Panel Wall Panels:

Available in larger sizes (usually 1.22 m to 2.44 m and 3 to 6 mm thick), these panels make wall finishing easier. Their surfaces often mimic stone, wood, or tile. They are installed with glue, and the joints are concealed by molds. Slab wall panels are commonly used on concrete slabs and sandwich panels in modular homes.

Common Materials for Wall Panels

Traditional Wood Wall Paneling:

Made from oak, cedar, and maple, pressure-treated wood siding is popular for its cost-effectiveness and the natural beauty of wood grain. Wax-coated panels are recommended for rooms with high humidity for water and dust resistance.

Particleboard:

Produced by hot pressing chips and sawdust, particleboard is similar to wood siding but less durable. It is suitable for dry areas only as it is sensitive to temperature changes and high humidity.

Fiberboard:

Also known as hardboard, fiberboard is made by heat pressing wood and plant fibers. It is moisture-resistant and environmentally friendly, though not ideal for areas with direct water exposure.

MDF Panels:

Made from medium-density fiberboard, these panels are dry pressed at high temperatures and pressures. They are sturdy enough for hanging storage and shelving and are resistant to moisture, heat, and sound. Fire-resistant MDF panels are also available.

Vinyl Plasterboard:

Used for building walls, partitions, and ceilings, vinyl plasterboard panels are durable and reliable, often covered in drywall with patterned surfaces.

3D Panels:

These panels add unique personal style and new design solutions. They create stunning effects with their sculptural textured decorations, transforming interior spaces.

PVC Wall Panels:

Made of rigid polyvinyl chloride with a small amount of plasticizer, these composite panels are safe for use in any room, including showers. They offer many advantages, such as being waterproof, fireproof, hygienic, and long-lasting. In recent years, composite wall panels have gained popularity as a superior alternative to other types of panels.

Features of Composite Panels

Environmentally Friendly:

Polyvinyl chloride is used in food packaging, tubing, and medical devices. Witop Decor recommends PVC panels for schools, gyms, and health facilities for better safety.

Fire Resistance:

PVC panels have a firing temperature of 370 degrees Celsius, compared to 250 degrees Celsius for fiberboard and particleboard. They produce less smoke and lower toxicity when burning.

Moisture Resistance:

The smooth surface of PVC panels makes them resistant to moisture and prevents bacteria and mold growth, making them ideal for kitchens and bathrooms.

Easy to Install:

PVC panels are simple to install, even for beginners. Damaged sections can be easily replaced.

Versatility:

Available in various colors and shapes, composite panels can match different interior design styles, enhancing the beauty of your home.

By understanding the different types of wall panels and their materials, you can choose the best option for your home based on your needs and preferences. Witop Decor offers a range of high-quality wall panels to suit any decor.
