  • Can I cut the Vistelle panel to size?
    Absolutely! It can be cut down and worked using general power tools. It can also be cut for plug sockets, shower valves etc. Download the fitting instructions from here for further details and helpful advice.
  • Can I use Vistelle behind my kitchen hob?
    Yes, it can be installed behind an electric, ceramic or induction hob however we advise that a distance of at least 50mm is required between the hob and the Vistelle panel. Also additional protection is recommended directly behind hobs to avoid damage to the panels caused by direct contact with hot pans; We recommend the use of our aluminum or colour matched glass hob protector (available in our web store). Please note: Vistelle is NOT suitable for installation behind a gas hob.
  • Can I install the product over my existing tiles?
    Yes! Just ensure that the surface is as flat as possible and free of any dust or debris.
  • Can I bend the panel to create a curve?
    No. The product needs to be installed on a flat substrate.
  • My coverage area is larger than the panels shown on your website; do you manufacture wider / taller panels?
    Unfortunately we only manufacture the panels in the sizes indicated, however you can install multiple panels next to one another; See the fitting instructions for further information.​
  • How does Vistelle compare against glass for wear?

  • Can I remove a scratch from Vistelle?
    Vistelle panels feature a hard coating on the surface, which make them harder to scratch. If these panels are scratched however, repair is generally not possible.
