In stock — Delivery soon
Feel the difference solid makes. The Solid Slat Panel Sample Kit is a hands-on introduction to our top-tier line — panels milled from solid material all the way through, with no veneer, no composite core, and nothing wrapped or faked. Each sample is a real piece of a full-size panel, mounted on the same recycled acoustic felt backing, so you can see the grain, feel the weight, and run a thumb along the square-cut edge before you commit.
The kit includes Solid Oak, Solid Walnut, and both Solid Bamboo colorways — Natural and Medium Brown — so you can compare tone and character side by side in your own light. The real thing, all the way through.
Features & Benefits
Features & Benefits
- Solid all the way through. Every slat in the Solid series is one piece of real material, 13mm deep, milled front to back — no veneer skin, no pine core, no MDF underneath. Trim a slat to fit around a switch plate and the cut edge is the same as the face.
- Depth you can read from across the room. Half-inch slats standing proud of the felt cast a real shadow line beside every slat, and that line moves as the light changes through the day. It’s the one thing a printed or laminated surface can’t fake.
- Mounted on acoustic felt. Each panel is bonded to 9mm black acoustic felt, which takes some of the hard edge off rooms with a lot of bare surfaces.
- Three finishes, one construction. American Walnut, American Oak and Bamboo are built the same way — eight solid slats to a panel, two panels to a box. What changes is the material, the tone and the character.
Materials & Construction
Materials & Construction
- The slats. 13mm deep, eight to a panel, milled from solid material rather than wrapped over a core. Cut one anywhere along its length and it’s the same right through. The slats are square-cut, so the top face meets the sides at a sharp corner — that’s what keeps the shadow line crisp.
- The backing. Each panel is bonded to 9mm black acoustic felt. It’s a rigid pressed board rather than a soft fabric — it holds the slats in alignment and gives the panel its structure. Being black and matte, it recedes, so the space between slats reads as shadow instead of as a visible backing.
- The joint. Panels overlap where they meet rather than butting edge to edge, so the join closes up instead of leaving an open line with felt showing through it.
- The finish. Every Solid panel arrives sealed and ready to install. The exact finish varies by material — the finish for each is listed on its own product page.
Installation & Care
Installation & Care
- Before you start. Work out your box count first. One box covers 23.62″ of wall width in the hardwoods and 24.18″ in bamboo once installed — divide your wall width in inches by the figure for your finish and round up. Order the whole wall at once: these are real materials, and later production runs won’t necessarily match the tone of the first.
- Mounting. Solid panels fix to the wall with screws or construction adhesive, straight onto drywall or into studs. Work across the wall in one direction so each panel laps over the one before it. Indoor use only.
- Cutting. Trim them like timber, not like a laminate board. A fine-tooth blade gives the cleanest edge, and because the slat is solid all the way through, a cut edge looks finished rather than exposing a pale core.
- Care. Dust with a soft cloth or vacuum with a brush attachment; for anything more, a barely damp cloth is enough. Avoid solvent cleaners, abrasive pads and silicone polishes.

The details · Solid Oak & Walnut
Oak & Walnut specification
Specs for the full panels; your kit holds cut pieces of the same builds. Oak and walnut share one build; bamboo is below.
Every slat is one piece of solid American oak or walnut, 13mm deep, on 9mm black PET acoustic felt. Two panels make one box: 23.62″ of wall width together. One edge carries a 15.5mm felt lip and the last slat overhangs the other by 5mm, so panels lap and every seam reads as the same 0.41″ gap as the slats.

The details · Solid Bamboo
Bamboo specification
Natural and Medium Brown share this build.
Every slat is one piece of solid bamboo, 13mm deep, on 9mm recycled black acoustic felt. A 1″ felt lip runs along one edge and the last slat overhangs the other by half an inch, so butted panels close into the same half-inch gap as the slats. Each panel adds 12.09″ of wall: two make one box and cover 24.18″ installed, not the 25.2″ they measure end to end.

What Solid owners say
Covered the full bedroom wall with a light (oak and beige) ultralight slat. Easy to install and very pleased with the result.
I love the wood tones variation of the Dark Smoke as it looks more like real walnut. The sample seems like the Truewood Lite offers enough dimension without being bulky looking and heavy. I will order as soon as it is in stock.
The sample was beautiful very well made and I received it quickly.
loved it but it's too expensive for my project
Solid wood. Beautiful color. Well made.
This kit was invaluable in deciding what panel to buy. Simplified the process big-time.
I look at loads of these acoustic slat panels. But new when I found this company these were the best by a long stretch. Just beautiful. And customer service is incredible. Will definitely be buying from them again.
Like it very much
I ordered a sample and looks great!
We plan to install these on a ceiling. Cherrywood is not an easy color to match, but these look great. Very light material should also reduce the installers efforts.
Client services rendered as called for.
We have ordered samples from a few companies to compare colors, price and quality. So far the Slats.Co walnut tops our list.

We had an issue with one of the panels and they were really good to refund the cost of that one pannel. Great quality product. Will definitely use again
There is nothing wrong with the color. We were simply looking for something a bit browner. We were hoping this product would work because the flexibility and weight work well for our need.
TrueWood 3-Sided Veneer Acoustic Slat Panel Sample Kit
We received multiple samples of acoustic wall panels. They are high quality and a good way to see different options for our project.
Samples arrived fast but we're hard to see full design. The designs I wanted were not in stock so had to go another direction.
I like that the samples arrived quickly and most are well made but some of the wooden pieces are crooked and dont give me a great impression
Edit: The company refunded me unprompted which I appreciate. Thank you for the customer service.

ULTRALIGHT Accent Wall Panel Sample in Walnut, Black Felt
Product sample pack was delivered in a timely manner and gave us a good idea of what would work for us.
Good quality but not the look we wanted
Not exactly what i was looking for.
I will order the white panels when the longer lengths are available
I like the product but, I need to know/learn how to cut it? How to handle corners and so on..
