Each decor section (1n) being intended to constitute the decor of a panel. Each decor section (1n) having a beginning (1B) and an end (1E). At least the end (1E) of a first decor section (11) is made to match the beginning (1B) of a second decor section (12) so that when the first decor section (11) and the second decor section (12) is arranged in a row, the decor of the first decor section (11) will give the impression of continuing on the second decor section (12).
