WALL PANELLING / WOODEN LAMINATION The most common use of wall panelling is for lamination of wood on a wall and for covering of large areas as partitions, because the sheets generally come in large sizes and are extremely light and easy to work with. While wall panels are usually 4×8 foot in size used as a pre- fabricated wall (wood or calcined gypsum & glass fiber). Some of the panellings come in four different types: 1. Tongue and Groove 2. Overlap 3. Shiplap Edges 4. Plank Paneling

The type of panelling depends on what you are using them for and what overall look you want to reach, more on which is best for your type of installation

Tongue and grove is the most popular because it is easy to install and transport. Shiplap joints paneling & plank paneling is composed of a series of planks that line the wall from floor to ceiling. You can choose planks that run vertically or horizontally, though a vertical application is most common. The width of the planks varies, so you can choose the size that best fits the scale of your room. Shiplap joints paneling are formed by cutting identical rebates into opposite faces of adjoining boards. This produces a joint where the rebates overlap, preventing gaps between the boards from being visible.
