SPC Wall Panel Bending for Curved Wall

SPC wall panels are widely used not only for flat wall surfaces but also for special applications such as columns and curved walls. With the right processing methods, SPC wall panels can be bent to create smooth curves, meeting diverse decorative needs.

Specific Steps to Bend SPC Wall Panels

1. Mark the Bending Line

On the backside of the SPC wall panel, draw a precise bending line at the position where the curve is needed. This helps ensure accurate positioning during the operation.

2. Even Heating

Use a hot air gun to evenly heat along the bending line. Keep the airflow steady and moving to avoid uneven temperatures or hot spots.

3. Slow Bending

Once the heated area softens, start bending the panel slowly. Adjust the angle gradually until the desired curved shape is achieved.

4. Cold Water Shaping

Use a towel dipped in cold water to wipe along the bent section. This rapidly cools and fixes the shape, ensuring stability and a lasting curved effect.

Precautions

Keep the heating temperature consistent to avoid fluctuations.
Maintain the heat within 70–90℃; exceeding this range may compromise the panel’s strength.

Conclusion

With proper heating and bending techniques, SPC wall panels can be perfectly adapted to curved columns and arched wall surfaces. This method not only enhances aesthetics but also maintains the durability and long service life of the panels.
