Wave Profile
A Fluid, Organic Look with Porta Contours Wave Profile
Bring movement and a unique visual rhythm to your interiors with the Porta Contours Wave Profile. This decorative timber lining features a subtle, undulating design that creates a beautiful, flowing aesthetic on walls and ceilings. The Wave profile adds a soft, organic texture, transforming flat surfaces into captivating architectural features. As part of the premium Porta Contours range, these profiles are available in a selection of natural timbers, ensuring you can achieve a sophisticated and custom finish that truly stands out.
Two Profiles, Endless Design Possibilities
Our Wave profile comes in two distinct types, each crafted to the highest standards from sustainably sourced timbers. The “Wave Lining” is perfect for larger surface areas, while the “Wave Wall Bead” is ideal for more intricate details or a subtle, textured effect.
- Wave Lining (78x21mm): The primary profile for creating striking feature walls and ceilings. Its larger size provides a more pronounced wave and a dramatic sense of movement.
- Wave Curved Wall Bead (39x16mm): A smaller, more delicate profile that can be used for subtle decorative details or to complement the larger lining.
- Premium Timbers: Choose from the strong grain of American Oak, the clean, versatile finish of Pine Clear, or the subtle elegance of Tasmanian Oak to match your design.
- Various Lengths: Profiles are available in multiple lengths, including 1.2m, 1.8m, and 2.7m, to provide flexibility and minimise waste for projects of all sizes.
Where You’ll Find Wave Profiles in Action
The Wave Profile is trusted by designers and homeowners to create a wide range of captivating interior features:
- Statement Walls: Installing the Wave Lining vertically or horizontally to create a dynamic focal point in a living room, bedroom, or foyer.
- Ceiling Designs: Adding a unique texture and warmth to a ceiling for a high-end, bespoke architectural look.
- Cabinetry and Joinery: Using the Wave Wall Bead for a subtle decorative touch on the sides of cabinetry or a kitchen island.
- Commercial Interiors: Enhancing a restaurant, retail space, or office with a visually appealing, textured surface that elevates the space.
Complete Your Installation with the Right Finish
For a beautiful and long-lasting result, it’s essential to use the correct installation and finishing products with your Wave profiles:
- Hardwood Timber Posts: Use matching blackbutt posts or spotted gum posts to create vertical framing elements that complement your wave-patterned feature wall
- Timber Cladding & Lining: Combine Wave profiles with flat cedar or pine cladding panels to create contrast zones in your design
- Plasterboard Trim Angles: Finish edges and transitions cleanly where Wave profiles meet standard plasterboard walls or ceilings

What timber options are available for the Wave Profile?
The Wave Profile is available in three premium timbers: American Oak, Pine Clear, and Tasmanian Oak. This variety allows you to choose a timber that best suits your desired aesthetic and budget.
How should I install the Wave profiles?
The profiles are typically installed using a strong construction adhesive and small brad nails. A precision saw is recommended for cutting the profiles to ensure clean, professional-looking joins and mitred corners.
Can the Wave profiles be painted?
Yes, the profiles can be painted. For a painted finish, Pine Clear is a great choice due to its smooth, knot-free surface. The profiles can also be finished with a clear coat or a stain to highlight the natural timber grain.
Where is the Wave Profile best used?
The Wave Profile is designed for internal applications and is a great choice for feature walls, ceilings, and other decorative linings. It should not be used in external or wet areas as it is not treated for those conditions.
