Why Acupanel Luxe feels different
A calm, architectural presence
From the moment it’s installed, Acupanel Luxe feels like it truly belongs in the space, rather than something added afterwards. The wider slat profile brings quiet structure and balance to the wall, adding depth and presence without ever competing for attention.
Real wood, chosen with intention
Acupanel Luxe is crafted using real wood veneer, selected for its natural grain, warmth, and consistency.
Available in American Oak and American Walnut, each panel brings its own character while maintaining a refined, architectural feel across the wall.
Nothing left unfinished
Each slat is fully wrapped in real wood veneer, eliminating exposed edges and creating a clean, finished appearance from every viewpoint. Smooth to the touch and left in its natural state, the surface celebrates the honesty of real timber, with the option to oil or stain if you choose to personalise the finish.
Quality you’ll appreciate every day
The kind of quality you notice in the moments that matter. Morning light across the wall, quiet evenings at home, and the sense that a room finally feels complete. Acupanel Luxe brings warmth, texture, and calm into the spaces you live with most, creating interiors that feel settled, considered, and a pleasure to return to.
Installation, made straightforward
Acupanel Luxe installs using standard fixing methods, whether handled by a professional or completed at home. The installation video below demonstrates the core fixing approach using our original Acupanel, which also applies to the Luxe range.
Built with care
Thank you for choosing our craftsmanship. We take great care in selecting quality materials and creating products that enhance the spaces people live and work in. I hope your project brings you enjoyment for many years to come.
FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
What is Acupanel Luxe?
Acupanel Luxe is a more refined evolution of our original Acupanel. It features a wider slat profile and a fully wrapped real wood veneer, creating a calmer, more architectural look with a finished appearance from every angle.
How is Acupanel Luxe different from Acupanel?
The key differences are in finish and proportion.
Acupanel Luxe has:
- Wider slats for a slower, more architectural rhythm
- Fully wrapped real wood veneer, with no exposed edges
- A more refined, resolved appearance overall
Both panels are premium. Luxe is designed for spaces where detail and finish matter most.
Are Acupanel Luxe wall panels made from real wood?
Yes.
Acupanel Luxe is finished in real wood veneer, applied to an engineered core for stability and consistency.
This construction delivers the warmth and character of real timber, with a cleaner, more reliable finish than solid wood alternatives.
Is a wood veneer real wood?
A veneer simply means a thin surface layer that’s applied to a backing material. That surface layer can be made from different things, including real wood or composite and synthetic materials.
This is where the confusion often comes from.
Some products use printed or composite veneers that only imitate the look of wood. Others, like Acupanel, use a genuine wood veneer, sliced directly from real timber.
Because it’s real wood, a wood veneer has natural grain, texture, and variation, just like solid timber. The difference is thickness, not authenticity.
In furniture and architectural design, real wood veneers are widely used because they allow the beauty of natural timber to be applied consistently and responsibly, without the movement, cracking, or waste that can come with solid wood.
When we talk about veneer at WVH, we’re always referring to real wood veneer, not printed or synthetic alternatives.
What finishes does Acupanel Luxe come in?
Acupanel Luxe is available in:
- American Oak
- American Walnut
Both finishes showcase the natural grain and variation of real wood.
Does Acupanel Luxe come pre-oiled or lacquered?
Acupanel Luxe is supplied in its natural wood veneer state with a smooth, refined surface.
The veneer accepts wood oils or stains if you wish to deepen the tone or personalise the finish. This is optional. The panels do not require oiling to maintain their appearance.
Do Acupanel Luxe wall panels improve acoustics?
Yes.
Acupanel Luxe is acoustic felt-backed and designed to help reduce echo and soften sound within a space, improving overall acoustic comfort.
Can Acupanel Luxe wall panels be installed by a DIYer?
Yes. Acupanel Luxe is designed to install cleanly using standard fixing methods and clear guides.
Many customers choose to install the panels themselves, while others prefer to have them installed by a professional. Both approaches work well.
How are Acupanel Luxe wall panels installed?
Acupanel Luxe can be installed using:
- Screws through the felt backing between the slats.
Or...
- Panel adhesive for a more permanent installation
The best method depends on your wall type and project requirements.
Can Acupanel Luxe be used in kitchens or bathrooms?
Acupanel Luxe can be used in kitchens and bathrooms where it is not exposed to direct moisture, steam, or splash zones.
It works well in areas such as:
- Under island benches
- Feature walls away from sinks or cooktops
- Powder rooms or toilets
- Bathrooms where shower steam is well contained and does not reach the panels
Acupanel Luxe is not designed for high-moisture areas or locations where water or steam regularly comes into contact with the surface, such as inside showers, behind basins, or near stovetops.
If you’re unsure whether Acupanel Luxe is suitable for your space, our team is happy to help assess the location and recommend the best option.
Can Acupanel Luxe wall panels be cut to size?
Yes.
Panels can be cut to size using common tools. A fine-toothed saw is recommended for clean cuts, and a multi-tool is useful for detailed areas such as outlets and switches.
Is Acupanel Luxe suitable for renters?
Many renters use Acupanel Luxe successfully.
If installed with screws, panels can be removed later, with screw holes filled and walls repainted. Installation methods vary, so we recommend checking with your landlord before installing.
Can Acupanel Luxe be installed behind or around a fireplace?
In many cases, yes, particularly with modern fireplaces that have proper heat shielding.
As a general guide, we recommend keeping panels at least 300mm away from direct heat sources. Fireplace designs vary, so it’s important to check the specifications and clearances provided by your fireplace manufacturer before installation.
Can I order samples of Acupanel Luxe?
Yes. Samples are available so you can see the finish, slat profile, and timber tone in person before committing.
Where can I find installation guides and videos?
Installation guides and step-by-step videos are available on this page and in our Help Centre.
If you have a specific question, our support team is always happy to help.
