Description

Plankwall Grooved Ceiling Panels are MDF panels with tongue and groove edges suitable for use on interior ceilings and walls. Made from sustainably grown, Nelson pine with an E0 rating. Panels are available with either a V or W groove on one side, to provide an attractive linear look. The reverse face can be used if a smooth profile is desired.

The tongue and groove join provides effective bracing, as well as reducing the need for sub-trades such as stoppers. Panels are fixed using pins and GLU.
