(excl. VAT)Want to give a plain wall more personality without reaching for another can of paint or roll of patterned wallpaper? Traditional finishes may get the job done, but they don't always create the distinctive look you're after. Burel Forest Decorative Cork Wall Panels offer a more original approach, pairing natural cork with authentic Portuguese burel in layered green tones inspired by the depth and variety of the forest. The result is more than a standard wall covering: it's a refined, premium surface with natural variation, rich visual character, and an organic feel that makes the wall stand out.

The Burel collection pairs two natural materials with deep roots in Portuguese craftsmanship: cork and burel.
Cork has been an important part of Portugal's material heritage for generations. While it is commonly associated with wine stoppers and bulletin boards, its possibilities extend much further. Today, cork can be found in decorative wall coverings, flooring, furniture, and a wide range of functional products for everyday use. Burel is a traditional Portuguese fabric made from 100% sheep's wool, originating in the mountainous Serra da Estrela region.
Bringing these two natural materials together in a single panel creates a distinctive wall surface where contrasting textures complement one another and add visual depth.
Burel Forest starts with a warm natural cork background and introduces irregularly shaped pieces of burel in a variety of forest-inspired green tones.
This design works especially well when you want the authentic character of cork to remain visible while adding subtle color and extra dimension to the wall. The burel accents give the surface a more expressive, organic appearance without covering up the naturally varied texture of the cork.
Each panel is built from three individual layers:
For exact panel dimensions and thickness information, refer to the product specifications provided below.
These panels are designed to be glued directly to the prepared wall surface. We particularly recommend Wakol D-3540 adhesive. Typical coverage requires approximately 150–250 g/m², making it easy to estimate how much adhesive your project will need. On average, one 0.8 kg package covers about 4 m², or roughly 22 panels. The larger 2.5 kg package provides enough adhesive for approximately 12.5 m², equivalent to about 68 panels.

Proper surface preparation is essential for a secure installation. Before applying the panels, confirm that the wall is clean, dry, level, and free of dust, grease, or other contaminants that could interfere with the adhesive bond.
Any uneven areas should be corrected before installation begins. For highly absorbent surfaces such as concrete, applying a primer is recommended. This helps prevent the substrate from drawing moisture out of the adhesive too quickly.
Another important step is to allow the cork to acclimate before installation, ideally for 72 hours. This gives the material time to adjust to the room's temperature and humidity. Skipping this process or reducing the acclimation period may increase the chance of dimensional movement after the panels have been installed.
No. The panels are manufactured with unbeveled edges.
The material you choose for a wall can have a noticeable impact on the overall feel of a room. Plastic, for example, is synthetic, while ceramic surfaces generally feel cooler and harder to the touch. Cork offers a very different experience – it is natural, comfortable to touch, and has an inherently warm feel that can make a wall appear more inviting.
That quality can be especially appealing in bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices, where a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere often matters most. Natural cork introduces texture and character to the wall, while the Burel collection adds distinctive color accents for a more individual look.
It is important to distinguish between enhancing everyday comfort and providing dedicated thermal insulation. Decorative cork can make a wall feel warmer and more pleasant to the touch, while its natural appearance can also give the entire room a visually warmer atmosphere. That added sense of comfort is a genuine advantage.
However, Burel panels are primarily intended as a decorative wall finish rather than a dedicated insulation system. If improving thermal insulation is the main objective of your project, ThermoKork Panels or Expanded Cork are better suited for that purpose.
In other words, decorative cork is a practical solution when you want to transform a wall while also making the room feel more comfortable. When insulation performance is the priority, choose a product specifically engineered for insulation instead.
The seams where individual panels meet may remain slightly visible after installation. Because cork is a natural material, it responds to changes in the temperature and humidity of its surroundings. This is why proper acclimation before installation is so important. Giving the panels enough time to adjust to the conditions in the room can help minimize later dimensional movement and make the seams less noticeable. Even with correct installation, however, minor visible joints are normal and should be considered part of cork's natural character.
Want to move beyond synthetic finishes and hard, cold-looking wall surfaces? Some wall coverings may look impressive online, yet feel far less natural when you experience them in person. Burel Forest Decorative Cork Wall Panels bring a completely different character to the space. Natural cork creates a warm, organic foundation, while irregular green accents add visual interest and give the surface its distinctive personality.

Combining natural cork with colored wool gives Burel Forest an appearance that stands apart from typical wall panels. Rather than creating a perfectly uniform finish, these materials produce a warm and visually engaging surface filled with subtle variations, organic irregularities, and small details that make the wall more interesting.
The concept also draws inspiration from Portugal’s long tradition of craftsmanship and manufacturing. Cork and burel both have deep roots in Portuguese culture and production. This collection brings the two materials together in a contemporary decorative format designed for modern interiors.
If a plain, perfectly consistent wall feels too predictable for your space, this design offers a more individual approach. Natural cork remains the main visual element, while randomly distributed green wool accents introduce contrast and personality. The result gives Burel Forest a look that is noticeably different from conventional cork wall panels.
Cork is a natural material, making it an appealing choice for interiors where you want to reduce the use of synthetic finishes. It also offers a useful everyday benefit: dust is less readily attracted to cork than to many other types of surfaces. That means you can create a decorative feature wall without automatically adding high-maintenance cleaning to your routine.
Routine care is refreshingly simple as well. Basic cleaning is generally all that is needed to keep the surface looking its best. Cork does not call for complicated maintenance procedures, so you can enjoy an attractive wall finish without spending excessive time caring for it.
Paint and wallpaper are familiar decorating options, but they can start to feel repetitive when you want something with more character. Cork transforms the wall in a more dimensional and noticeable way. Instead of simply changing the color, it introduces natural texture, visual depth, and a stronger presence within the room.
This added character can make the entire interior feel more finished without requiring layers of additional decor. The wall itself becomes an important part of the overall design. For anyone ready to move beyond another flat, smooth surface, Burel Forest provides a distinctive alternative with organic appeal, expressive texture, and a refined premium look.
