Trepanel® Smoked Oak is the ideal affordable choice for creating that sought-after wood slat style in your own home. These panels have a strong light grey felt backing with excellent sound-absorbing qualities, perfect for helping reduce echoes in larger rooms when installed following the Trepanel® Guide. Trepanel® is constructed with an MDF core, which is so lightweight and easy to cut it can be installed by one person (although you may prefer a team of two for fixing), it’s fast to put up and creates minimal mess so you can transform a space in minutes! The wood veneered slats have the characteristics of real wood in texture, colour variation and grain, and their warm, medium brown oak shade is visible from all angles, contrasting beautifully against the grey felt backing. 

Fixing Guide

To fix Trepanel® we recommend using either 38mm screws or Mapei Super Grip Panel Adhesive. One panel requires 15 screws or one tube of adhesive. 

The wood veneer is a natural material, and each piece of veneer is unique in terms of wood's natural characteristics, that being texture, colour variation and grain, it also may undergo changes over time when exposed to light.

Please note: We do not recommend for use in areas close to a heat source, e.g. hob or fireplace, or where they will come into direct contact with water.

Cleaning and maintenance:

We recommend regular cleaning with a duster or soft brush, to gently remove dust and debris, avoid harsh brushes and scratchy materials.

Do NOT use any type of wood or furniture polish as it can damage the veneer. Our panels are fully finished so no need for additional maintenance of oiling.

Periodic use of vacuums with a soft attachment can easily remove dust from the felt back.

For more stubborn stains use a damp cloth (not wet). If spills occur use a clean, absorbent cloth to dry immediately.

Avoid excess moisture with Trepanel® as the felt back should not come into contact with liquids.
