6 Design Benefits for Using Paneling on Walls & Other ...

Benefits of Introducing TFL Paneling In Design

Versatility of Colors, Textures and Designs

While vintage wall paneling was limited to plain wood paneling, today, the choices for design in wall panels are truly endless. Some have the texture of natural wood grain (because wood will never go out of style), but now paneling textures have expanded to resemble limestone, tree bark, granite, marble and more. 

Some suppliers also offer custom-made wall panels, so your design can include textures such as linen or leather. No matter the texture, wall panels bring design versatility without breaking the budget, so you have a cost-effective means of adding creative elegance to your interiors.

Panasphere offers product lines featuring a variety of textures. 

  • Burl: This collection offers a gorgeous, realistic wood texture that pays attention to the smallest details. Available in either a cross cut or embedded grain, there are eight colors to choose from. 

  • Aura: This collection features stone finishes in granite, marble and quartz textures, emulating the same natural patterns, tones, veins and details found in nature. 

  • Azure: This collection features material textures in leather and linen with incredible attention to detail paid so that users expect to feel the natural texture instead of smooth TFL panel.

  • Burlply: This collection is the newest innovative product we added to the existing product line which has 14 colors and textures to choose from.

Ease of Installation

Wall panels are incredibly easy to install, too. Even if the surface in question has become uneven over time, installation is hassle-free. 

Supply is often readily available and TFL panels can be installed with the most common clip systems available on the market to make installation a breeze. Contractors love to use TFL panels because of their ease of use, and owners love how quickly contractors can complete a job as well. Easy installation means a shorter timeline and less labor, resulting in savings for both the installer and owner.

Hiding Messes

Are you or your clients embarrassed about the state of walls? Cabinets? Furniture? Renovate them with TFL panels. 

Wall panels can double as spectacular tools for hiding the irritating mess of cables tangled together behind your TV, desk or hotel business centers, to name a few. No matter how elevated the design, the sight of unruly wires can ruin any aesthetic. 

Think of this unassuming perk the next time you&#;re faced with only design, but function and organization as well. The possibilities extend well beyond managing wires. 

Ease of Maintenance

Consider other design modalities, like paint or wallpaper, and their long-term maintenance needs, whether carried out by you or your clients. With painted walls, factor in regular scrubbing with special cleaning detergents that don&#;t ruin the paint &#; particularly likely on high-traffic surfaces like countertops, desks and cabinetry. With wallpapers, cleaning becomes even more difficult, and with most stains, you&#;ll need to remove and replace the section of wallpaper (or move some furniture in front to hide it).

Luckily, this level of maintenance isn&#;t needed when it comes to decorative wall panels. Cleaning is as simple as using water, a light household detergent and a sponge. Most dirt will wipe right off. Plus, the durability of TFL panels eliminates the need for frequent repair, as it resists dents and scratches, making them ideal for those aforementioned high-traffic areas.

It&#;s also easy to disinfect TFL panels without worrying about damaging them, unlike hardwood or plywood which can have a very limited range of disinfectants used. With high-quality TFL panels, just spray a gentle disinfectant over the surface and the job is done. 

Longevity

If you choose high-quality TFL panels, they&#;ll last for years and years. Paint has the tendency to flake and scratch, while wallpaper tends to peel and yellow. And as far as economy panels go, there&#;s a chance that quality may deteriorate more quickly.

If you&#;re looking to avoid replacing or renovating every year or two, TFL panels ensure your surfaces a longer lifespan while simultaneously making them stand out from the usual suspects.

Environmentally-Friendly 

Wall panels are an environmentally-friendly and sustainable solution. They&#;re often made from recycled materials, such as the recycled wood core used in Panasphere&#;s TFL panels, and don&#;t use many resources to manufacture. They can also be reused.

After spending time, effort and money to perfect your vision, it&#;s only right that you or your client get to enjoy the fruits of your labor for as long as desired. Thankfully, high-quality TFL can be removed easily without damaging the installation surface and potentially reinstalled elsewhere around the existing site or at any new location.

It&#;s true! With TFL paneling, restrictions from landlords, whether commercial or residential,  are virtually eliminated. Wall panels are a non-permanent way to elevate interior design that can be removed and reused at any time, which is great for your wallet and the environment as the panels won&#;t be thrown into a landfill.

Projects to Inspire You

TFL panels can be used in a wide variety of projects on a wide variety of surfaces well beyond its most common use case, vertical walls. Where else might high-quality, uniquely textured panels provide unexpected design differentiation? Think wet bars to kitchen islands; cabinetry to furniture; reception desks to office work spaces, and more.
