Flute Slat Wall Panel — Carrara Marble

Carrara Marble is the brightest finish in our Flute Slat range — a clean white ground with soft grey veining and warm gold-caramel drifts, carried across a finely fluted half-round profile.

The veining survives the flute

This is the thing that makes the range. On a deep, wide flute, a marble vein disappears — it breaks at every rib and gets swallowed by the shadow in each channel. Our flute is fine and closely spaced, so the veining runs across the ribs unbroken and reads as one continuous slab with a texture laid over it. You get the pattern and the profile at the same time, which almost nothing else on the market manages.

What it does to light

The ribs turn a flat wall into something that changes through the day. Morning light rakes across and picks out every leading edge in bright white; by evening the same wall is softer, with the shadow settling into the channels and the gold veining warming up. A wall washer or an uplight along the skirting exaggerates it considerably — worth planning for if you're specifying lighting at the same time.

Where Carrara Marble works best

Full-height feature walls in living rooms and bedrooms, where the vertical ribs add height to the room. Behind a freestanding bath or a basin run. In hallways, where the fluting draws the eye along. As a reception or showroom wall in commercial work — it is the finish that photographs best of the seven, which matters if the space will end up on a website.

Installation

Panels bond to a flat, dry substrate with high-grab construction adhesive and lock together using the integrated profile system at every joint, so there is no visible fixing line. No battens required. The same profiles accept optional LED inserts for concealed uplighting between panels — an effect worth seeing on this finish in particular. 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.

Order a sample first — £3.99. Fluted finishes are impossible to judge flat on a screen, because the whole effect is what the ribs do to light. Five minutes with a sample against your own wall tells you more than any photograph.
