What is Slatwall?

Slatwall is a type of wall paneling commonly used in retail stores. They are made up of a series of slats,  horizontal strips that are arranged in a grid.  There are a huge variety of attachments that slide into these slats, designed to hold anything from shelving and power tools to display apparel. These attachments are relatively inexpensive and do not require any tools to install or remove.

Types of Slatwall Panels

There are three main types of slat walls: traditional slat walls, modular slat walls, and 3D textured slat walls.

• Traditional slat walls are the most common type of Slatwall and are made of wood or metal.
• Modular slat walls are made of hard plastic and are easy to install and reconfigure.
• 3D textured slat walls add dimension and visual interest to a space and are made of latex or polyurethane.

Important Add-Ons

Slatwall panels can be fitted with plastic or metal inserts that can reduce the chance failure under heavy stress. In most environments inserts are not strictly necessary, but if you plan to display particularly heavy merchandise it’s something worth considering.
