Bamboo panels are a convenient and modern solution for wall and ceiling finishing. They install quickly, are easy to cut, and are suitable even for humid areas. Here we explain how to properly glue panels to the wall, which tools to use, and how to avoid common mistakes.

Before starting, it’s important to prepare all necessary tools. For installing wall panels, you will need:

• Utility knife or AllWall cutter
• Construction guide rail
• Adhesive sealant (best option — AllWall MS polymer)
• Glue gun
• Heat gun (if bending corners)
• Router (for external corners or curved shapes)
• Hole saw for outlets and switches
• Trowel or roller for pressing (optional but convenient)

STEP 1. Wall preparation

The surface for panels must be dry, solid, and even. Panels can be glued onto tile, paint, or wallpaper, provided they are not peeling. Do not install on lime plaster or oil-based putty. Clean the surface and mark it using a laser level.

Before applying adhesive, do a «dry» fit — lay the panels on the floor or hold them against the wall. Cut panels using a utility knife, angle grinder, or a special AllWall cutter. Use a straightedge or guide for a clean cut. Make holes for outlets with a hole saw.

STEP 2. Cutting and fitting

STEP 3. Applying adhesive

Apply adhesive in dots, spaced 10–15 cm apart. For uneven walls, use more adhesive. Panels can be installed at temperatures from +4°C to +40°C. Setting time: 20–40 minutes.

*Installing panels on external corners

• Route the back of the panel
• Heat with a heat gun and bend
• Attach to the wall

• Route across the entire surface
• Bend the panel to the required radius
• Glue as usual

*Installing panels on curved walls

If panels have a locking system, connect them like laminate.
For decorative profiles, insert the panels into the groove and fix with adhesive.

STEP 5. Finishing installation

Start from a corner. Press the panel firmly from the center to the edges.
For edge-to-edge installation, remove the protective film from the edge.

STEP 4. Installing the panel

Installation in humid areas

Yes! AllWall bamboo panels are suitable for humid spaces. In showers with direct water contact, we recommend using SPC panels — they are resistant to moisture and impact.

We recommend using the AllWall branded MS polymer adhesive:
• Odorless and eco-friendly
• Free of benzene and formaldehyde
• Resistant to moisture and mold
