Charcoal panels are moisture resistant decorative wall panels made from bamboo charcoal and wood fibre, finished with a fluted or ribbed face. They are used for interior feature walls, TV units, bedroom headboards and reception areas anywhere a flat painted wall needs depth and texture.
Louver Studio is an authorised dealer for E3 Clads and Century Louvers in Bengaluru, and stocks the Urodecor VOL II charcoal range. Every panel is sourced directly from the manufacturer and carries manufacturer warranty with no grey market stock.
Charcoal panels, louvers and fluted panels what's the difference?
These names are used interchangeably across the Indian market, which makes shopping confusing. In practice Charcoal panel describes the material bamboo charcoal and wood fibre. It says nothing about the profile.
Louver and fluted panel both describe the profile the raised vertical ribs across the face. A louver and a fluted panel are the same thing.
WPC is the other common material, a wood-plastic composite. WPC panels are usually lighter in tone and suit wood-finish schemes; charcoal panels run darker and matte.
So a charcoal louver and a charcoal fluted panel are the same product. The choice that actually matters is material charcoal or WPC and then rib width and height.
A standard 10 ft × 8 ft feature wall needs roughly 24 panels at 8 ft × 5 in, which works out to approximately ₹16,000–₹28,000 in material depending on the range. Installation is quoted separately based on site condition usually ranging from Rs 50/sqft to Rs 100/sqft.
