Foldable wall panel

Abstract

A foldable wall panel for use as a ceiling or wall covering, including a carrier layer with a front side comprising at least a first lamellae section, a second lamellae section and at least a first folding line. A first plurality of strip-shaped lamellae is arranged spaced apart and parallel to each other in the first lamellae section, and a second plurality of strip-shaped lamellae is arranged spaced apart and parallel to each other in the second lamellae section.
