Painted Hardboard Panels
BAYOU supplies factory-finished painted hardboard panels with decorative surfaces for furniture, automotive, and interior design applications. Available in plain colors (white, grey, vanilla, black) and realistic wood decors (oak, walnut, beech, cherry, maple, wenge) with optional perforation.

What is Painted Hardboard?
Painted hardboard is a standard hardboard panel that has been factory-finished with a decorative surface coating. This can range from solid-color paint finishes to printed wood-grain decors and textured patterns. The result is a ready-to-use panel that requires no additional finishing on-site.
BAYOU painted hardboard uses the same EN 622-2 compliant base material as our standard hardboard, ensuring consistent density, strength, and dimensional stability. The factory-applied finish provides superior adhesion, uniform color, and scratch resistance compared to on-site painting.
Painted hardboard is available in standard panel sizes up to 2,750 × 1,700 mm, with cut-to-size options for custom projects. The combination of decorative appeal, structural performance, and competitive pricing makes it the preferred choice for furniture manufacturers, automotive suppliers, and interior designers worldwide.
