Wet-Room Suitability

Faux-wood, aluminum, and blackout composite fabric systems are all rated for bathrooms, kitchens, and other high-humidity environments. Natural basswood is recommended for dry, climate-controlled interiors only, as sustained moisture exposure can warp or discolor the timber over time.
