Whether you have an external garage or one adjoining your house, then you must have observed some degree of dampness on the walls. This internal dampness on the walls needs to be prevented to control further damage due to high moisture content. At this point, the solution to this moisture problem is ‘waterproofing’ of the garage. One of the most cost-effective ways of waterproofing is to install PVC wall panels. If you are facing issues in keeping the walls clean and dry, then consider buying commercial wall panels for your garage. There are a few things that you need to note before calling up the wall panel suppliers.

What is PVC?

PVC cladding was started in Germany in the 1970s. It was a decorative interior wall finishing with very unique characteristics compared to traditional wall coverings at that time. PVC paneling is lightweight with a smooth exterior surface for decoration with a tongue and groove edge for ensuring easy assembling.

PVC is also called Polyvinyl chloride and it’s made from durable thermoplastic. The PVC is used as waterproof garage wall panels because of its extreme stress-cracking resistance, noise absorption, sound insulation, heat insulation, heat preservation and corrosion-proof properties. The PVC panel is extremely tough and is impact-resistant. The PVC panel sheets are long-lasting and processed with weather-resistant ingredients that make the product moisture repellent, mold-resistant and it definitely doesn’t absorb water or allow water to stay on its surface. Although lightweight, the PVC panels can hold on to their color for more than a year, if properly maintained.

Why choose PVC wall paneling instead of wood panels and tile board?

PVC panels win over wood panels and tiles because they are resistant to water and moisture. Unlike wood, PVC panels won’t delaminate, warp or swell. Also, PVC panels are much more cost-effective than wood panels and tile boards.

Advantages of installing commercial wall panels

Maintaining hygiene

PVC wall panels are high in hygiene and since they don’t soak in moisture, they mostly remain clean with minimum maintenance. Since the panels are mold repellent there is a very low possibility of bacterial growth. With no dampness to complain about, you can be assured that bacteria and microbes won’t be a problem in your garage.

Recyclable

The PVC waterproof garage wall panels are 100% recyclable. You can install the PVC panel and then again uninstall the panel to reinstall them again at other places. Installing, uninstalling and reinstalling the panels several times doesn’t adversely affect the walls, so there is no need to worry about painting or varnishing the garage walls.
