Rack

Long (240-370 cm) and narrow (12,5-30 cm) elements, with a thickness of 8 to 12 mm, remotely resemble racks, where they got their name. Their dimensions are excellent for plating small rooms with many angles. Installation involves the preliminary creation of a metal or wooden crate. Panels are connected with each other by the "spike-groove" method, or with the help of a tab, if the elements have only grooves. The design is fixed with special brackets, which are inserted into the crate. Or self-tapping screws that twist into the groove. Made from MDF, chipboard, fiberboard, PVC.

MDF

По составу схожи с DBP, но имеют меньшую плотность. По этой причине MDF иногда называют «мягким» DBP. Но за счёт такой «мягкости», у плит повышенные тепло- и звукоизоляционные свойства. В процессе производства им придают и другие свойства. Например, используя в качестве облицовки PVC, можно добиться хорошей влагоустойчивости плит. Специальные составы, которыми производитель зачастую пропитывает панели, делают их огнеупорными. Подобные технологические манёвры не могут не сказаться на росте стоимости, но это вполне оправданная тенденция.

DBP

Распространённый материал в индустрии производства стеновых панелей. При изготовлении используют древесные волокна, которые соединяют между собой методом горячего прессования. Преимуществом таких плит являются низкая себестоимость, экологическая чистота, возможность ламинирования шпоном, пластиком. Иногда можно встретить DBP, обитые рейкой из натурального дерева. Выпускают всех трёх видов исполнения. Плиты крепятся непосредственно на стену, либо на предварительно смонтированную обрешётку. Между собой их соединяют замковым способом или методом «шип-паз».

Не рекомендуется отделывать плитами DBP помещения с повышенной влажностью, поскольку от сырости они сильно деформируются и отходят от стен.

Chipboard

Производят из отходов деревообработки. Поэтому они по многим параметрам уступают натуральному массиву дерева. Но все недостатки с лихвой покрывает низкая цена. Чтобы придать листам Chipboard презентабельный вид, их покрывают пластиком. Цветовая гамма пластикового покрытия может быть самой разнообразной. В процессе изготовления древесная стружка смешивается с клеевым составом и прессуется. Используемый клей токсичен и вреден для человека. Но наличие пластикового покрытия нейтрализует этот фактор. Как и DBP, плиты из стружки не выдерживают высокой влажности, сильно разбухая. Большой удельный вес (выше, чем у распространённых пород дерева), накладывает ограничения на форму выпуска Chipboard. Их производят только листами.

The main difficulty that will have to face after installation is the fixation on the wall of additional interior items: paintings, hangers, sconces, sockets. With small elements you can still figure out by attaching them to a soft base, but it's not easy to hang a heavy shelf or a bracket for a TV.

Where to use in decoration

Wall panels in the interior can perform a variety of tasks: from the decorative function, to hiding the wiring, various wall defects, insulation, noise insulation of the room. If the practical side of things is simple, then the decor is more difficult. There are several methods of distributing panels on the plane of the wall, which will help achieve the maximum aesthetic effect:

In this case, try to keep the proportion of 1: 3, i.е. they should not be located above the lower third of the wall. This will create the effect of high ceilings. Good for living room, corridor, hallway, nursery, kitchen, bathroom;
  2. On the whole wall. This option is a classic, emphasizes the status of the room. It is better to abandon its use for too small rooms with low ceilings, as the design will make the room more heavy. Do not resort to such a reception in the rooms where you spend most of the time. Here the most appropriate are the wooden panels. Suitable for library, billiard room.
  3. Accent on the decor. With this option, select a certain section of the wall or several intervals for the design of panels. In this case, you do not need to tie the height of furniture and decor items to a certain value, as in the very first reception. Here, you do not heavier space, if you put all the interior items correctly. It will look good in the bedroom, living room, hallway.

And do not forget - the final choice is always yours!
