Akhupanel Wood Slat Panel Size Options:

Each felt backed sound dampening panel is 60.5cm (width) x 2.1cm (depth) and is available in 2 height options:

• 2.4m : 240cm tall (each panel is approx. 1.44 m2).
• 2.7m: 270cm tall (each panel is approx. 1.62 m2).
• Is your wall higher than 2.7m?
  You can join panels together (but you can see the join so we suggest making that a feature by adding LED lighting at the join) or if you wall is under 2.7m in width, you can run the panels horizontally instead.
  We do also have some non-standard limited colour options in 3m high, otherwise can supply sustainable decorative (non-acoustic but still sound dampening) slat panels for heights up to 5.8m (min order 10 panels). Please contact us for more details on those.

Raw Oak Acoustic Slat Panel – Paintable Akhupanel 3D Wood Wall Panels

Improving the acoustics of your room with this Akhupanel Raw Oak MDF Acoustic Slat Wood Panel. Not only do they dampen noise, they also add a natural warmth and that extra element of texture. Supplied in 2.4m or 2.7m height, our wood slat panels can be installed vertically or horizontally – and work really well on ceilings!

The Raw Oak colourway is uncoated so as much as it can be left raw, we know that high traffic areas (and grubby hands) can leave marks so it has been designed for you to either add a wood stain and sealant – or paint it in the colour of choice.  To order the sealed version of this panel, the Neutral Oak is the exact same colour, but is has a coated oak veneer.

These acoustic panels come ready to install, so you can get that minimalistic Scandinavian look within a matter of hours. Depending on the acoustics required; these DIY wood wall panels can either be installed directly onto the wall using high-tack adhesive (see video below), screwed in – or to get the highest noise dampening class attainable, they can be installed over acoustic wool inside battens. No matter which method you choose, filling just 25% of your space will make a difference to dampen the reverberation and improve the acoustics.

Designed with sustainability in mind, the black felt backing is made from RPET (mostly recycled plastic bottles) and is fully recyclable (we would suggest adhering to the with screws so it is easy to remove).
