From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Covering the inner wall of an attic

A wall panel is single piece of material, usually flat and cut into a rectangular shape, that serves as the visible and exposed covering for a wall. Wall panels provide insulation, soundproofing, uniformity of appearance, and are easily replaceable.
