Vario Grey Reclaimed Wood Wall Panels – Glue-On Wall Cladding
Vario Grey reclaimed wood wall panels combine naturally aged timber with a mix of grey tones, visible grain, cracks and authentic weathering marks. The result is a distinctive reclaimed-wood surface that gives interiors a calm, natural and individual character.
Natural colour, grain, cracks and surface variation are part of the reclaimed-wood character and make every installation unique.
Area planning
Enter your wall dimensions, subtract windows and doors and add a waste allowance. We calculate the number of full cartons required for the selected product option.
Openings are automatically deducted from the total wall area.
Depending on the project, we recommend an additional allowance for cutting and fitting.
Open the guide and follow the complete installation process from wall preparation to the required expansion gap.
The surface must be free of dust and grease. Check the wall for unevenness and moisture. If the substrate is damp, the cause of the moisture must be eliminated before installation. Observe the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. We recommend priming the wall with a suitable deep primer beforehand.
Cover the floor. Prepare a saw, measuring tool, spatula, pencil, paper or cloth for adhesive residue and a utility knife. Unpack the Vario cartons, pre-sort the wood and open the adhesive.
Apply assembly adhesive to the wall with a notched trowel or directly to the board. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Press the board firmly against the wall and hold it briefly. Slightly warped boards may need to be held longer until the adhesive grips.
If gaps occur between individual boards, they can be filled afterwards. Cut a suitable piece from an offcut with a sharp knife and press it into the gap. Holes or chipped areas can be repaired in the same way.
Leave at least 1 cm of clearance to the floor, ceiling and side walls for a room height of approximately 2.4 m. This allows the wood to move slightly as it balances with the room humidity.

Expert answers
Practical answers based on the way we install and handle Vario wall cladding.
We recommend a water-free, flexible assembly adhesive based on polymers. This avoids introducing unnecessary moisture into the wood and supports a stable installation.
Water-based adhesives can add moisture back into the wood. Thin wooden elements react more strongly to changes in moisture, so a water-free polymer adhesive is the safer choice for dimensional stability.
We do not recommend it. The wood may bond to the wallpaper, but the wallpaper itself can detach from the wall beneath it. The substrate should therefore be stable, clean, dry and capable of carrying the load.
Yes. If possible, store the cartons flat in the room for 1–2 days before installation. This allows the wood to adjust to the room climate before it is fixed permanently.
For a room height of around 2.4 m, leave at least about 1 cm at the floor, ceiling and side walls. This gives the natural wood enough room to react to normal changes in indoor humidity.
See it. Feel it. Decide.
Natural wood is best judged in person. Order a matching sample to assess the real colour, texture and surface before planning a larger wall or interior project.
The sample is intended to help you assess the material and surface before ordering larger quantities.
