What Are WPC Fluted Panels?

WPC fluted panels, also called composite slatted cladding or WPC slatted wall panels, are decorative wall boards made from wood plastic composite materials. The fluted surface creates repeated grooves that add depth, rhythm and a clean architectural look to walls and ceilings.

Compared with untreated natural wood, capped WPC fluted panels are engineered for better moisture resistance, UV stability and easier maintenance. They are widely used for modern exterior wall cladding, commercial facades, balcony ceilings, garden fences and privacy screen systems.

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, free of any debris, and level for a smooth installation.

Step 2: Install the Joist

All WPC wall panel systems require a subframe network to promote both drainage and airflow to ensure a solid structure for the wall panels to be fixed onto. We provide WPC joist and aluminum joist for option. However, alternative materials like solid wood or steel also can be sued to create your subframe.
