Description
The Venus Galaxy Solid Wall Panel (2400 x 1000 x 10mm) is a popular type of waterproof cladding designed for modern, low-maintenance home renovations, particularly in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
Ideal Applications
- Bathroom & Wet Rooms: The most common application is for creating a fully waterproof shower enclosure or cladding the entire bathroom, offering a long-lasting, hygienic alternative to tiles.
- Kitchen: Used as a durable, easy-clean kitchen splashback behind cookers, sinks, and worktops, providing a bold and contemporary look.
- Home Decor: Excellent for creating a feature wall in utility rooms, hallways, or any area where a striking, maintenance-free, decorative finish is desired.
1. Aesthetic Impact and Finish
- Luxurious Sparkle Effect: The defining feature is the high-gloss finish embedded with fine, multi-tonal glitter or metallic flakes. This is designed to mimic the appearance of polished quartz or granite countertops, but with a lighter material and easier installation.
- Light-Enhancing: The highly reflective, glossy surface and the sparkle effect work together to bounce light around the room, making small bathrooms, wet rooms, or dark kitchens feel brighter and more spacious.
2. Usage Notes
- Trims and Profiles: To complete a professional, fully watertight finish, the panels require trims (e.g., internal corner trims, external corner trims, and end caps). These are typically available in matching PVC, or contrasting colours like polished chrome, satin silver, or white.
- DIY Friendly: Due to the simple tongue-and-groove system and large format, the installation is often considered a suitable DIY project for those with basic to intermediate skills.
