Slat Wall Panels and Colors

Steel slatwall offers heavy-gauge strength ideal for maximum durability, while aluminum slatwall is lighter, contains over 50% recycled content, and is LEED-certified. Both hold over 50 lbs per linear foot and use hidden fasteners for a seamless look, but aluminum is easier to clean and avoids formaldehyde issues found in MDF alternatives.

Slat spacing varies by product: steel slatwall uses 3 inch on-center spacing, while aluminum slatwall systems offer 1 inch, 1-3/8 inch, 1-1/2 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch on-center options, giving retailers flexibility to display everything from seasonal merchandise to heavier year-round products.

NuPanel is a retrofit gondola panel system made from anodized aluminum with 1 inch slat spacing. It drops into standard 36 or 48 inch gondolas to replace pegboard, installs in minutes, and includes Wing Panels for added end-cap merchandising space, making it a fast, cost-effective remodel solution.

Both steel and aluminum slatwall panels support over 50 lbs per linear foot, making them suitable for heavy product displays. This exceeds the capacity of conventional MDF slatwall, which is prone to warping, breaking, or delamination under similar loads.
