ABOUT WALL PANELS
Wall Panels are lightweight decorative or protective panels which can be fixed directly to internal walls. One application is in bathrooms, to protect walls from damp around showers and tubs. Other applications, in any room of the house, are purely decorative. These include Beadboard Wall Panels, which give the look of painted wooden planks. Other types of decorative wall panel include wood effect wall panels, and leather look wall panels. Wall Panels can also be used to provide a traditional wainscot. One special type of wall panel, mainly used in offices and meeting rooms, is the Acoustic Wall Panel. These aid hearing by reducing echoes and reverberation.
Another type of wall panel is a rigid free-standing panel which can be used to make up prefabricated internal partitions, and modular buildings such as offices within high-ceilinged factory premises. The leading wall panel manufacturers selected by Abacus Construction Index, which are described below the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive websites, with information on all aspects of wall panels, including online catalogs, colors and materials for wall panels, and care and maintenance of wall panels.
