Customers who installed FRP panels are now looking for an alternative. At Duramax, the customer service has reported so many calls from customers who are willing to reinstall a new wall panel. They are dealing with issues like damp walls, damaged walls, panels peeling off, or delaminating. You need first to know that FRP panels are not suitable for moist commercial interiors. Duramax manufactures vinyl panels for industrial use, and our panels are 100% waterproof.

PVC panels are 100% waterproof – the biggest benefit:

When clients ask us whether vinyl panels are the only wall paneling material suitable for commercial use, we explain it to them. Many ask similar questions like whether FRP is ideal for walling? If you have a related query, keep reading. Firstly, PVC panels do not have backers for attaching to the walls. This makes sure that our panels do not absorb water. Due to the waterproof nature, our panels do not attract moisture, making the walls dry and long-lasting. 

FRP has backers that absorb water:

Now, we shall explain why FRP is not suitable for use in any moist commercial interior. It has backers made of Drywall, OSB or Plywood, which absorb ample moisture. This moisture gets into the panels and travels into the walls causing permanent damage. FRP panels last for only a few months; you have to re-invest in installing a new panel and also repair the walls. Now you know why its good to install vinyl wall panels. 

Kiaan’s wall paneling solution for his hydroponics farming set up:

For instance, we once interacted with a client named Kiaan, who owned a new hydroponics farming facility. He noticed a lot of moisture and did not wish to keep the walls uncovered. He called Duramax for a solution. He was aware that he needed to safeguard the crops, any dampness or mold inside would hamper plants’ growth. 

We immediately called him for a consultation and offered our PVC panel. We discussed the benefits and stated how so many of our clients are using the panels in commercial kitchens, dairy rooms, restaurants, food processing, grow rooms, medical facilities, shower walls, fisheries, stables, hydroponic farming, and more. 

The benefits of Duramax wall panels:

Duramax ensured that the panels are ASTM certified and FDA compliant. The PVC panels are also chemical resistant and have 1-hour fire resistivity. We offered Kiaan an affordable solution because Duramax panels are bright and light-reflective, which helps in keeping the energy bills low. 

Hydroponics farming has gained a lot of popularity:

Recently, it’s beneficial because you do not have to depend on external factors like weather. conditions and soil conditions. It’s a form of indoor farming, and many are taking an interest in it. When you set up the interior of the facility, it means you are investing in the long-term. Do not forget to pay enough importance to the walls and the ceiling.
