Before You Begin

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Prepare a tape measure, level, pencil, fine-tooth saw, utility knife, safety glasses, work gloves, and a dust mask before starting.

Optional Finishing

If needed, lightly smooth rough cut edges with fine-grit sandpaper. Do not sand the finished surface.

Step 2: Choose Your Installation Method


Choose either screw installation or adhesive installation. Use suitable fixings for your wall type, or an adhesive compatible with both the PET felt backing and the installation surface.

Step 3: Measure,Plan & Dry-Fit


Measure the installation area at several points, mark outlets and other obstacles, plan the starting position, and dry-fit the panels to check direction, spacing, and overall appearance.

Step 4: Cut the Panels


Mark the cut line and support the panel securely. Cut the MDF slats with a fine-tooth saw and trim the PET felt with a utility knife. Dry-fit the cut panel before installation.

Screw Installation

Step 1: Choose the Fixings


Use screws and wall plugs or anchors suitable for your wall construction.

Step 2: Position the First Panel

Align the first panel with your reference line. Check that it is level and vertical before fixing

Step 3: Secure the Panel


Drive screws through the PET felt between the slats to keep the fixing points concealed.

Step 4: Check Screw Placement


Use at least four screws per panel, adding more where required. Position the top and bottom screws approximately 50 mm from the panel edges.

Important

Black screws are recommended for panels with black PET felt. Adhesive may also be used with screws for additional holding strength.

Adhesive Installation

Step 1: Prepare the Wall

Ensure the wall is clean, dry, flat, and free from dust.

Step 2: Apply the Adhesive


Apply a suitable high-tack panel adhesive to the PET felt backing in vertical beads or wave lines.

Step 3: Align and Press


Align the first panel with the reference line, then press it firmly against the wall.

Step 4: Continue Installation


Install the remaining panels, checking alignment and slat spacing as you continue.

Important


Use an adhesive compatible with both the PET felt backing and the installation surface. Follow the adhesive manufacturer’s curing instructions.
