Made using moisture-resistant MDF, these Wide Slat Wall Panels offer a premium look - similar to acoustic slat wall panels - and are ready for priming and painting in any colour. Each slat is 45mm wide with 10mm spacing, creating a clean, modern profile.
Choose from 9mm or 12mm panel thickness and install in portrait or landscape orientation – with slats running vertically in both.

Please note: The dimensioned drawing shows the panel's profile when machined with a new cutter. Over time, sharpening may slightly soften the profile, noticeable only when comparing panels bought at different times. The machining process may also cause very slight bowing.
Can paintable MDF wall panels be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
Yes, our paintable MDF wall panels are moisture-resistant so can be used in any room, including your bathroom or kitchen.
If your panels are likely to be in direct contact with water, we recommend using waterproof panels.
Can paintable MDF wall panels be fitted next to a heat source?
If your panels are going to be in direct contact with a heat source such as a hob or electric fire, we recommend opting for our fire rated paintable MDF panels.
Why are some of the paintable MDF wall panels green?
Our wall panels are made from Hidrofugo moisture-resistant MDF, which is known for its green core. While this core can be exposed during machining, it does not impact the surface or painting process of the panels.
Do you offer paintable wall panel samples?
Of course! We offer samples for all our wall panel designs and they are delivered for free within two working days. They're a perfect way to envision how our panelling will complement your space.
Do these MDF wall panels need painting?
Yes, our paintable MDF panels come unfinished, so need priming and painting to achieve your desired finished look. Check out our guide on how to paint wall panels here.
How do I fit paintable wall panels?
Secure each panel to the wall using grab adhesive (and nails if needed), sanding lightly if necessary and sealing any gaps. Then, apply a coat of prime, followed by your chosen paint in thin, even layers, allowing each coat to dry fully before the next. See our full step by step installation guide here.
How do I miter MDF wall panels?
To miter our MDF wall panels, you’ll need to cut the edges at a 45° angle, so they fit neatly together. The best tool for the job is a mitre saw, as it gives you clean, accurate cuts. You can also use a table saw with an adjustable blade angle, or a track saw if you're working with longer panels. Once cut, use clamps and wood glue to secure the joints, and lightly sand the edges for a smooth, professional look.

Was delivered promptly and the colour is as we wanted
2nd time purchased. Well wrapped and delivered quickly. Can't show photos as I haven't finished the job yet, but very happy with the product and service.
Thank you
One of the panels was damaged near the bottom when we unwrapped it. Fortunately it was near enough to an end and could be cut as we had to order too much. Then they warped slightly when I painted them with MDF primer. Fortunately the builders sorted that out and screwed them straight onto the wall. They are really difficult to paint too, so would only buy pre-sprayed if I ever bought more of that style.
my order was lost by the courier but panels by sofia made sure to send me some new ones promptly and free of charge, very kind and fast service! this is my second time ordering and certainly will not be my last 🥳🥳
Just received the panels and Im really impressed with the quality, especially for such a great price! They look fantastic and the seals feel really secure, so I'm confident they'll be perfect for the shower. Really pleased with my purchase!
I really liked the wood reeded colour and finish but as this was flexible panel, when you put sample on wall 90degree corner or on a big curved area, the black felt backing was visible and spoilt the overall look of the product/finish.
I love them, easy to put up. Just glue them. They look great, as they are. You can also paint them when I decide what colour I want. They will also insulate your home, which is what we all need .
Love the product but delivery communication was not good and very long lead times. One of the panels arrived a bit damaged and was offered 20% refund for it. Still awaiting this to be processed.
The quality of the panels very good.
They came with in a good time delivery.
We will be ordering them when we return back home from Australia around about end of April.
Can’t wait to see them on the wall . Thank you
Panels were left outside my house in pouring rain by delivery company. No advance warning of delivery day or option to tell them where to leave them. By the time I was home from work, packaging was soaked and annoyingly, there’s no plastic layer in packaging and the boards look warped from moisture. No plastic is great for eco, but since MDF is already terrible for environment, it’ll be worse if I have to put the boards in the bin! I haven’t put them on the wall yet as am trying to flatten them. Wish me luck!
Really pleased with how the shower panels turned out. We were a bit unsure about using panels instead of tiles, but they look brilliant now they're up. Great value for money too!
