Abstract: A slatwall profile comprises an upper male and a lower female end portions for interlocking with adjacent profiles to create a slatwall panel. The female end portion includes an attachment wall for attachment to a wall structure and a downwardly disposed longitudinal groove formed by the attachment wall, a base wall formed with a substantially 90° corner with the attachment wall, and a U-shaped return that forms a lip. The male end portion is receivable into the groove in an adjacent profile. The male end portion includes a cover wall that overlies the attachment wall in a spaced apart relationship. The cover wall includes a bulge for being positioned adjacent the corner and is configured to support the cover wall a distance away from the attachment wall. The male end portion includes a transverse wall extending from the bulge, the transverse wall for overlaying the base wall.
