Flute Slat Wall Panel — Capri Beige Travertine

Capri Beige Travertine is the warmest finish in our Flute Slat range — a soft greige-beige travertine effect with fine linear striations and the open pitting of natural stone, on a half-round fluted profile.

Two grains running the same way

Vein-cut travertine already has a directional grain. Set that grain vertical and run a fine flute over the top of it and the two reinforce each other — you get a surface that reads as genuinely quarried and cut rather than printed, with far more depth than either the stone effect or the fluting would give on its own. Of the seven finishes, this is the one people most often mistake for the real material.

The forgiving one

If you are nervous about committing a room to a textured surface, start here. Warm neutral sits happily with oak, walnut, brass, black metalwork, cream and sage, and travertine reads as calm and spa-like rather than as a design statement. It is the finish we recommend to customers who want the room to still feel right in ten years.

Where Capri Beige Travertine works best

Bedrooms and en suites, where the warmth flatters the light. Behind a bath or a basin run. As a hallway lining, where the vertical ribs move the eye along. In commercial work it suits spas, treatment rooms, yoga studios and hotel bathrooms — the warm tone does more for skin tones under artificial light than a grey stone will.

Installation

Panels bond to a flat, dry substrate with high-grab construction adhesive and lock together using the integrated profile system at every joint. No battens, no sealing, no grout. Keep the striations running the same way across the wall — the stone grain is directional as well as the flute, and a panel fixed upside down will show. The profiles accept optional LED inserts. Cut with a fine-tooth blade rated for WPC.

Each pack contains four 160 mm slats rather than one wide board. That makes them far easier to carry, to get up a staircase and to work around sockets and door openings, and it means a damaged piece costs you a quarter of a pack rather than the whole thing. The integrated profile locks the slats together so the joins read as part of the flute rather than as seams.
