WPC Wall Panel Installation Guide: From Preparation to Completion

WPC wall panels are an ideal choice for new home decoration due to their durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal. The following are detailed operational steps, divided into Preparation Work and Installation Process two parts, to help you easily complete the installation.

Preparation Work

  1. Measurement and Planning

    Measure the Wall: Accurately measure the dimensions of the wall where the WPC wall panels will be installed. Create Layout: Draw a layout diagram of the wall, marking the positions of doors, windows, corners, and outlets to ensure a reasonable arrangement.

  2. Choose the Right Wall Panel

    Match Style: Select suitable WPC wall panels based on the decoration style and color scheme.

    Determine Specifications: Choose products based on the thickness, width, and design requirements of the wall panels to ensure they meet functional and aesthetic needs.

  3. Prepare the Wall Surface

    Clean the Surface: Remove old wallpaper, paint, or other debris from the wall to ensure it is clean, dry, and smooth.

    Repair Defects: If there are cracks or holes in the wall, they should be filled and sanded to create a smooth foundation.

  4. Is Primer Needed

    Check the wall panel manual; some WPC wall panels require primer to be applied before installation. Follow specific requirements.
