Wall cladding and decorative panels are a popular addition to contemporary interior design, providing texture, substantially increasing depth, and visually enhancing any residential or commercial space. In addition to providing a flawless finish to the installation, it is equally important for the wall panel (cladding) and decorative panel to be mounted and to be supported with a strong and stable material. Gurjan plywood is widely used as the base for wall panels and decorative panels due to its ability to provide great durability, dimensional stability, and the ability to support a wide variety of decorative finishes.
Why is Gurjan Plywood Best for Wall Applications?
Gurjan plywood is composed of directed (or laminate) dense hardwood veneers, which create an incredible amount of structural strength and create a dense (compact) core structure. Therefore, Gurjan plywood is the perfect material for wall-mount (attachment) installations and provides long-term stability and durability.
Major benefits of Gurjan plywood for wall applications:
- High Structural Strength
- Bending and warping resistance
- Excellent screw and fastener holding capacity
- Smooth finish for decorative applications (the appropriate surface finish for decorations)
The stability of plywood properties will provide the support necessary to maintain the alignment and appearance of the wall panel for an extended period of time.
Decorative Design Flexibility
Another major benefit of using Gurjan plywood is that it creates an excellent base for decorative applications. A designer may use Gurjan plywood to create the base material for:
- Laminate wall panels
- Veneer wall coverings
- Painter feature walls
- Textured decorative finishes
- Geometric wall patterns
Due to the smoothness of Gurjan plywood, the finished surfaces may be evenly applied to the wall, providing consistent overall aesthetics.
Long-Term Stability and Performance
Wall panel cladding systems must be subjected to the daily environmental changes while maintaining their shape and alignment. Gurjan plywood is very stable, nd its dimensional stability reduces the likelihood of the panel moving, distortion of the surface, separation of the edges of the panels, and damage to the finish. All of these characteristics make Gurjan plywood the most stable and visually durable surface material as a wall install where long-term aesthetics are critical.
Applications
Gurjan plywood is extensively used in the construction of:
- Living Room Feature Walls
- Bedroom Accent walls
- Office Interiors
- Reception Areas
- Hotel Interiors
- Decorative Partitions
Conclusion
Gurjan plywood provides a strong, durable and wonderful solution for decorative wall cladding and decorative wall panels. By using quality solutions from a reputable manufacturer such as Royale Touche, the overall performance of the finished wall will benefit from a structurally sound material, quality materials with consistency, and a smooth surface on which to apply decorative finishes for the modern interior design should last for many years to come.
