How wall panelling transforms different spaces
Wall panelling for private homes
Whether you live in a compact apartment or a spacious house, acoustic wall panelling can change the way your rooms feel and sound.
Living room: Turn your TV wall into a warm wood feature that also reduces echo from hard floors and large windows. You’ll enjoy clearer dialogue when watching films and more relaxed conversation when friends visit.
Bedroom: Use soft-toned wall panelling behind the bed to create a calm focal point. The acoustic felt gently absorbs noise from the rest of the home, helping you unwind and sleep more peacefully.
Home office: Install panels behind your desk or on the wall facing your workstation. You’ll notice fewer distractions from background noise and a more professional atmosphere for video calls.
Hallways and entrances: Narrow spaces often amplify sound. A stretch of wood wall panelling here not only looks welcoming, it also softens the sharp clatter of footsteps and doors.
Surface
Our surfaces are selected based on the principles of Scandinavian Design philosophy. All materials are of the highest quality. Offering a wide range of colors, the surface provides numerous aesthetic possibilities, allowing you to personalize your living and working space to reflect your unique style.
Wall panelling for professional and commercial projects
Architects, interior designers and contractors choose WoodUpp wall panelling to bring both form and function into their projects.
Offices and meeting rooms: Acoustic wall panelling helps create focused work areas and confidential meeting spaces. The design language is clean and professional, fitting seamlessly into modern corporate interiors.
Restaurants and cafés: Good acoustics encourage guests to stay longer and enjoy their time. Panels along one or two key walls can dramatically reduce harsh clatter, while the wood tones add warmth to the overall concept.
Hotels and hospitality: From reception areas to corridors and lounges, wall panelling brings a sense of calm luxury. Better sound control supports a more restful experience for guests.
Studios and creative spaces: Recording rooms, design studios and co-working hubs all benefit from reduced reverberation. With WoodUpp, you don’t have to choose between technical acoustic solutions and beautiful aesthetics – you get both in one system.
Simple installation
A straightforward DIY-project. Transform your space in no time.
What makes WoodUpp wall panelling different?
Scandinavian aesthetics with acoustic science
Many wall panelling options look good, but do little for sound. Others offer acoustic performance but compromise on design. WoodUpp panels are engineered to deliver both. Behind the sleek wooden slats lies a layer of acoustic felt designed to absorb sound across key frequencies.
Independent tests and acoustic ratings back our performance claims, so you can confidently specify our wall panelling for projects where noise control is essential.

How to install WoodUpp wall panelling
Exact steps vary slightly depending on your wall type and acoustic goals, but the overall process is straightforward.
1. Plan your wall
Measure the width and height of the area you want to cover. Decide whether you want full-wall coverage or a partial feature wall behind a sofa, TV or bed. Planning ahead helps you order the right number of panels and minimise cutting.
2. Prepare the surface
Ensure the wall is clean, dry and reasonably even. In many cases, you can mount wall panelling directly onto the existing surface. For advanced acoustic performance, you can add battens and mineral wool behind the panels.
3. Cut panels to size
Use standard tools to trim the panels where needed (for example around sockets or at the edge of the wall). The felt backing makes cutting simple, while the wooden slats guide straight lines.
4. Mount the panels
Depending on your setup, you can fix the panels with screws through the felt into the wall or battens, or use suitable adhesive on appropriate surfaces. Panels are designed to join seamlessly, so the slat pattern continues smoothly across the wall.
5. Finish and enjoy
Once installed, there is no need for painting or additional finishing. Step back and experience how your new wall panelling changes the feel of the room – visually and acoustically.

Frequently asked questions about wall panelling
Acoustic wall panelling combines decorative surfaces with sound-absorbing materials. In WoodUpp panels, wooden slats sit on top of an acoustic felt backing. Together, they reduce echo and reverberation while adding a refined design element to your walls.
You can use our wall panelling in most indoor spaces: living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, home offices, offices, meeting rooms, restaurants, hotels and more. For areas with special requirements (for example high humidity), check the product specifications on your local WoodUpp site or contact our team.
Yes. Unlike plain wooden cladding, acoustic wall panelling uses sound-absorbing materials behind the slats. Tests show clear reductions in echo and improved clarity. For the highest performance, install panels with an air gap and mineral wool behind them, as described in our technical guides.
Many private customers install our wall panelling themselves. If you are comfortable using basic tools and following step-by-step instructions, you can usually complete a feature wall in a few hours. For larger or more complex projects, professionals can work quickly thanks to the modular design.
Maintenance is simple. Dust the slats regularly with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. For light marks, use a slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. The felt backing should be cleaned gently to preserve its structure.
Our acoustic felt is made from recycled plastic, and we use real wood veneer sourced with responsibility in mind. By choosing WoodUpp wall panelling, you support a more conscious approach to interior design. For detailed information on certifications and sourcing, see the sustainability section of your local WoodUpp website.
Yes. Many projects combine our wall panelling with acoustic ceilings, rugs and soft furnishings for a comprehensive approach. Our panels often form the main visual feature, while other elements fine-tune the sound environment.
