A method of producing a panel for lining or cladding an aircraft interior, such as an aircraft cargo hold includes arranging at least one resin layer of a thermo-plastic polymer and at least one reinforcement layer of reinforcement fibers upon one another in a stack, wherein each resin layer extends adjacent and/or substantially parallel to each reinforcement layer; and consolidating the stack to form a panel by applying heat and pressure to the stack. The pressure is applied to the stack in a direction substantially perpendicular to a primary plane of the layers. The pressure is applied to the stack in a non-constant distribution over the primary plane. A corresponding panel for lining or cladding an aircraft interior, such as a cargo hold is also described.
