Default pegboard

I'm looking into putting up a pegboard of about 2/3sqm to hang tools in my
workshop

Can anyone recommend a product and supplier

Thanks

My preference would be to stick up a sheet of 1/2" mdf and screw the
appropriate hangers to that. You can get packs of assorted screw in
brackets at most of the sheds or markets. IMHO, a rigidly fixed bracket is
much more use than a wire one.

Why not get some thick ply and some dowels?

I take it you have a drill and a saw amongst these tools you wish to
hang

=======================
Chipboard or MDF - both 18mm. Use clips like these from 'Screwfix' :

These terry spring clips are fine for some tools but not others. Those
usually red pvc covered screw in types are more pleasant to use. Of
course, spring clips are essential for things like pencils, or anything
without a shoulder. If it does have a shoulder, a fork type one is better.
