Decorative panels, waste-based, recyclable and non-toxic. A balance of aesthetics, performance and the lowest ecological impact. In collaboration with Alted Materials.
Paper Waste Panels transform fully recyclable, non-toxic boards made from these otherwise unusable fibres into beautiful wall cladding panels. For every 100m² Paper Waste Panels, 722 kg of landfill waste gets upcycled.
Colours can be customized by providing a RAL or NCS code. The custom colouring will be free of charge for orders bigger than 250 m² — if less, there will be a small additional charge.
Please talk to our experts for more information.
Currently, the Paper Waste Panels collection comprises three patterns debossed on the panel surface, offering various shadow effects. The unique pressing technology enables pattern customization for large orders at additional cost.
It is possible to cut Paper Waste Panels with a circular saw, tiger saw, or similar. Use discs with 96+ teeth and 5000 rpm for best results. The colours do not run through the material, so if you cut the panels, the edges will be exposed, unprotected from humidity, and showing the natural colour of the raw material.
We recommend planning carefully where the cut edges will be placed within the wall design. Both exposed edges and minor damages to the product during installation can be repainted with touch-up paint that we can provide.

Paper Waste Panels are not designed to perform as an acoustic product, although they absorb more sound energy than other common wall materials. The weighted sound absorption coefficient for Paper Waste Panels is 0.15 αw, meaning it absorbs 15% of incident sound energy. This ratio is similar to chipboards or soft woods.
Paper Waste Panels are designed for interior wall applications. However, there are several mehods for ceiling installation such as directly screwed to the ceiling, screwed to wooden battens and suspended ceiling grid system. This last option might need reinforcement.
Please visit our download centre for more technical information. This is an ongoing development and we will update our documents as soon as we have tested this.
No, you should not install Paper Waste Panels in high-moisture areas or that often require cleaning. You should avoid areas exposed to liquids.
Paper Waste Panels are designed for interior wall applications. The unique processing method used to shape the panels – combined with the original properties from our raw materials – brings durable and strong properties to the product. However, it should still be handled with care and not be placed in humid or dirty environments or in areas were it will be exposed to high impact and wear.
We encourage the reuse of Paper Waste Panels that have been disassembled in connection with renovation or demolition. Refurbishment or repairs mightbe necessary, and we can provide the required coating products.
Once the takeback program is in place, Paper Waste Panels can be 100% recycled in the same loop, not downcycled, to never become waste again. Please get in touch with our experts to get more information about recycling options prior to dismantling.
Keep liquids away from the panels. In the event of a spill or minor stain on the panels, use a moist or dry cloth to wipe away the filth as soon as possible. Allow the product to dry in the open air until no moisture is apparent. Do not use wet mops, wet scrubbers, or steam cleaners.
We do not recommend using any liquids or very wet utensils to clean the products, nor do we recommend using solvents on the products. No wax, polish, oil soap, abrasive cleaners, steel wool, scouring powder, or significant amounts of water should be used. Do not scratch or rub the surface to ensure long-lasting durability.
