Core formation
The wood-fibre foundation
MDF begins with wood fibres combined with a binder and formed under heat and pressure. The result is a consistent board that can be machined into clean, repeatable profiles.
THE MAKING OF ACENTRA
Beauty begins
beneath the surface.
From wood fibre to architectural rhythm.
From a PVC core to expressive marble-look finishes.
MATERIAL. FORM. FINISH.
Every layer has
a reason to be there.
Understanding a material changes the way you see it. Explore the manufacturing stages behind our two collections, and how their construction shapes their appearance and purpose.
01 / MADE IN CANADA
From wood fibre
to architectural rhythm.
Our eco-friendly acoustic collection pairs the consistency of an MDF core with a high-end decorative face and acoustic backing.
Slat machining
Precision in the profile
The board is cut into slats. Repeated widths and gaps create the vertical rhythm, shadow lines and depth that define the panel.
Decorative finishing
A considered surface
A decorative wood-look finish gives the slats their visible colour and grain. The face creates the warm natural expression or deep charcoal tone of the finished panel.
Panel assembly
The acoustic assembly
The slats are arranged on acoustic backing. The spaces between them expose the absorbent layer, helping it interact with reflected sound in the room.

Acoustic treatment addresses reverberation within a room; it does not make a wall soundproof. Choose the installation assembly and coverage to suit your room.
02 / THE MARBLE-LOOK COLLECTION
Expressive on the outside.
Considered within.
A 4 mm decorative PVC sheet with a waterproof surface, etch-proof and stain-resistant properties, and UV protection. Made with eco-friendly, toxic-free materials.
The foundation
Form the PVC sheet
The PVC material is formed into the sheet core. Its consistent profile provides a base for the decorative surface, with a finished nominal thickness of 4 mm.
The visual character
Introduce the pattern
A decorative marble-look layer creates the veining and colour. Bianco, Oro and Nero each bring a different balance of contrast, warmth and movement.
The protective surface
Protect the expression
The surface finish provides the collection’s stain-resistant, etch-proof and UV-protected properties, while retaining the visual depth of the marble-look design.
The final sheet
Finish the format
The sheet is finished in a 4 × 9 ft format. Installation layout, joint positioning and vein direction turn individual sheets into a cohesive wall composition.
