Product Description
PanelHush PET Wood Effect Wall Panels combine the natural warmth and visual appeal of timber with the proven acoustic performance of PET. Using high-resolution digital print technology, realistic wood grain designs are applied directly to the panel surface — creating an authentic wood effect finish without the weight, cost or maintenance of natural timber.
The panels are manufactured from 65% post-consumer recycled PET and deliver Class A sound absorption performance — reducing room echo and reverberation while transforming the visual character of any space. Unlike natural timber, PET Wood Effect panels require no specialist maintenance, are fully recyclable at end of life, and contribute to BREEAM and LEED sustainability credits.
PanelHush PET Wood Effect panels are specified by architects, interior designers and acoustic consultants across premium offices, hotels, restaurants, schools and healthcare facilities — wherever a natural, biophilic aesthetic is desired alongside high acoustic performance. ModernGlide supplies and installs PanelHush PET Wood Effect panels nationwide across the UK.

Acoustic Performance
PanelHush PET Wood Effect Wall Panels achieve Class A sound absorption (αw up to 1.00), delivering exceptional performance across a broad frequency range. The same high-performance PET acoustic core is used as in the standard PanelHush PET range — the wood effect digital print is applied to the surface without compromising acoustic performance.
| Specification | Absorption Class | Frequency Range | Recommended Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12mm Panel | Up to Class A | Broad frequency range | Excellent absorption across mid and high frequencies — ideal for offices, education and hospitality environments |
How Digital Print PET Works: The panel core is the same 65% post-consumer recycled PET used across the entire PanelHush range — delivering Class A sound absorption and Class B fire performance. A high-resolution digital print of the chosen wood grain design is applied directly to the panel surface, and a protective coating seals the printed surface for durability. The result is a lightweight, acoustic-performing panel that authentically mimics real timber grain without the weight, cost or maintenance of natural wood.
Wood Effect Design Range — 10 Species
10 authentic wood species designs available — from pale bleached ash to dramatic zebrano. All designs are digitally printed at high resolution directly onto the PET panel surface. Physical samples are available on request.

Sustainability and Environmental Credentials
PanelHush PET Wood Effect Wall Panels are manufactured using 65% post-consumer recycled PET fibres — the same material found in plastic bottles. Each installation diverts significant quantities of plastic waste from landfill and reduces the embodied carbon of the project. Crucially, no natural timber is used — delivering all the visual warmth of wood without any deforestation impact.
The panels are 100% recyclable at end of life, supporting circular economy principles. This makes them an ideal specification choice for projects targeting BREEAM Excellent, LEED Gold/Platinum, or WELL Building Standard certification.
