Moisture Resistant Panelling

Moisture resistant panelling is the perfect way to add character to your kitchen, bathroom, or utility space, without compromising on durability.

It’s designed to look great and last, no matter how humid a space gets. And it comes in variety of finishes and styles, from traditional tongue and groove to a more contemporary slat wall finish.

 

Each panel in this collection is made from Medite moisture resistant MDF, and is carefully selected to offer long-term performance in rooms where moisture, condensation and everyday splashes are the norm.

Why Choose Moisture Resistant Panelling?

Wondering if it’s worth upgrading from standard MDF to moisture resistant panelling?

The moisture resistant version offers all the aesthetic benefits, plus, one major advantage… It’s engineered to stand up to damp and humid environments, making it the optimal choice for bathroom or kitchen wall panelling.

This is because standard MDF can swell, warp or degrade when exposed to moisture. Conversely, our moisture resistant panelling is specially treated to repel water and keep your environment looking fresh and stable for years to come.

It’s major benefits include:

  • Durable and reliable – Moisture resistant panelling retains its shape and structure in high humidity areas, unlike untreated MDF or wood.
  • Low maintenance – No need to worry about bubbling paint, softening boards or early replacements. Just seal, paint, and enjoy.
  • Easy to install – Moisture resistant MDF cuts, fixes and finishes just like standard panelling. This makes it equally ideal for self-fit or professional installation.
  • Available in classic and modern styles – You’ll find a look to suit every interior, from shaker style wall panelling to contemporary slat designs.
  • Long-term value – The slightly higher upfront cost is balanced out by reduced maintenance and a longer lifespan.

Ask an Expert

Not sure if moisture resistant panelling is right for your project?

Wondering which style works best for your space? Or just need advice on sizing, finishing or fitting?

At Panelling Direct, we’re here to help.

Moisture resistant panelling is the ideal option for kitchen and bathroom panelling. Made from Medite MR, you can create the same authentic look that you would achieve with MDF, but with the added bonus of moisture resistance. If you were to use wood in environments with higher humidity levels, wood and normal MDF is porous, which means over time they will become warped. With moisture resistant panelling, when it is properly prepared and installed, your panelling will look great for years to come.

Kitchen Wall Panelling

Create a timeless finish in your kitchen and elevate your space, with kitchen wall panelling. Adding panelling to your kitchen is the ideal way to enhance your scheme. Traditional-style panelling is perfect for pairing with shaker style kitchens, while slat wall panelling works well with more modern kitchens. Using MR MDF, you can create your dream kitchen, complete with panelled walls.

Bathroom Wall Panelling

Bathroom wall panelling presents the ideal way to update your bathroom, to add character and on-trend style. While panelling is timeless, it also works well in modern homes too. Bathroom panelling is a great solution to update an otherwise simple space, adding depth and architectural detail where there often is none.

MDF Wall Panels for Bathrooms

Our moisture resistant panelling ensures that your bathroom panelling will last for years to come. Made from MR MDF, moisture resistant panelling won’t warp in typically humid spaces. With our MDF wall panels for bathrooms, you can create the look you desire, without having to worry about your panelling deteriorating, as it might if you used normal MDF or wood.
