Premium quality PVC-made wall panels are an essential addition to modern and contemporary commercial kitchens. Apart from helping you keep the space clean and hygienic, the panels also make your kitchen visually attractive because of their smooth and spotless white surface. Every restaurateur understands the advantages of optimizing their food preparation area for food safety standards. Since food quality is the primary determining factor for every restaurant’s success, kitchen owners prefer commercial wall panels over other options like plywood, wood, tiles, drywall, FRP, or Mylar.

Wash Your Commercial Kitchen Without Worrying About Wall Damages

Every commercial kitchen must cater to certain hygiene and cleanliness standards to pass the food health and safety standards. You might assume that it is related to the stations where your staff prepares the food. But for your kitchen to meet the optimum standard levels, you must function in a 100% damp-free, sanitized environment, including squeaky-clean walls and moisture-free ceilings and floors.

Firstly, maintaining Duramax commercial wall panels is extremely easy compared to other alternatives like FRP, tiles, wooden wall covering, and drywall. To help the panels shine, you only need access to a dampened washcloth and some toxic-free cleaning products. But since the commercial kitchen can turn messy quickly, they can often impose several hygiene challenges, especially when bulk food is being prepared, and all the burners, stoves, and ovens are busy. Washing the commercial kitchen becomes a priority, with a hose pipe to prevent the oil and moisture from accumulating, which would otherwise result in an unclean environment.

Frequent commercial kitchen washing might degrade the FRP wall panels over time and lead them to peel off or crack since they are non-moisture-resistant. Discolored commercial kitchen walls aren’t healthy for your business reputation and might dictate prompt remediation even if their structural integrity is unharmed. Repetitive repairs and replacement blows a hole in your pocket and might exhaust the savings you otherwise reserve for other business dealings. Installing PVC panels is a great solution, especially because of their waterproofing abilities. You can wash the kitchen area regularly without considering moisture-related concerns, as its non-porous surface prevents moisture from penetrating the wall surface.

Keep Your Food Preparation Environment Bacteria-Free

Vinyl wall panels can resist heat, cold, and humidity. Besides, mold or bacterial growth is never entertained wherever you install them since they excel in moisture prevention. Cleaning and removing mold, especially from FRP’s rough and edgy surface, brings frustrations and difficulties no entrepreneur wants to manage. Avoiding the mess created by mold and mildew formation is possible when you cover the commercial kitchen walls with 100% raw-vinyl-made panels. Since they meet FDA compliances and are ASTM and CFIA certified, you can use them around food without worrying about compromised food safety. Because of their water-resistant property, you can use them in all types of wet and humid interiors. More so, moisture’s incapacity to enter the wall surface also contributes toward a disease-free and highly-sanitized environment.

Zero Challenges During Panel Installation

One of the most valuable benefits of using PVC commercial kitchen wall panels is that they have an extremely lightweight design that makes them easy to move. Drywall, FRP, wood, and tiles, on the other hand, offer various challenges when it comes down to transporting them, thereby raising their moving cost. Duramax’s US-based panels can be transported without any hefty charges. Besides, they are even easier to install because of the interlocking tongue and groove mechanism. FRP commercial wall panel installation might need you to hire more than one experienced laborer. But with vinyl boards, a novice mechanic can complete the installation procedure within 7-8 hours.

Worried About Fire-Breakouts Inside Kitchens? Switch to Fire-Resistant Panels

Commercial kitchen fires are more common and occur more frequently than you imagine. Besides, they are risky and prompt costly after-repairs of walls and ceilings. They might even devastate your business, especially if the fire is severe enough. You might shut down your restaurant business for days until the necessary repairs are done. The primary reason behind commercial fires is the copious amounts of flammable cooking oil used daily, open flames, and multiple heat sources. A dangerous kitchen fire can occur within a few seconds without warning.

Taking necessary precautionary measures like adding commercial kitchen wall covering might be of great help, as they come with a 1-hour Class A fire rating. Installingfire-resistant wall panels can prevent fire breakouts for an hour and keep your cooking equipment and business safe, saving you from unimaginable losses.

Control Typical Commercial Kitchen Odor Easily

Removing annoying kitchen odors is vital in maintaining a healthy relationship with your customers. Kitchen odors resulting from the constant use of oil, food spillage, leftovers, food ingredients, and uncontrolled humidity levels can annoy your guests and employees, besides contributing to an unhealthy environment. The easiest solution to remove the odor is to ensure proper ventilation, install sufficient windows and cover the walls with odor-resistant PVC panels. The main job of commercial kitchen wall panels is to remove excess humidity and moisture from the interior to provide a healthy, sanitized, and odor-free kitchen environment.

Waterproof Vinyl Coverings Save You on Material and Labor Costs

Duramax’s anti-bacterial and anti-mold coated PVC panels are available in ½-inch thickness which you can customize based on your preference. The different lengths in which you can get these panels are 8 feet, 10 feet, 12 feet, 14 feet, 16 feet, and 20 feet. Each panel is precisely cut before installation to ensure a crease-free look. Besides, since the white panels don’t pick up on dirt and debris, it is easy to maintain a professional-looking commercial kitchen for several years.
