Kim owns a fishery, now she has all plans to maintain and renovate it because the breeding time of the fishes is approaching. She wishes to get rid of the dampness inside so that the fishes can survive in a healthy environment. Her fishery is not many years old and she did not use any sort of wall panels so far. Hearing and reading about the benefits of PVC panels she called us for a solution.

She discussed that budget is a very crucial factor and she was ready to invest provided she would have to undergo high recurring expenditure. At Duramax, we assured her that PVC is a completely different and a very reliable solution and there are certain things that set PVC apart from all other wall panels. The panels are extremely durable, all our vinyl panels are water and moisture resistant and this is why it’s so suitable for installing in a fishery. PVC panels do not absorb water, it does not have a backer to do so, and thus your walls remain free from moisture and damp. Automatically, the panels claim to be mold and bacteria resistant, these cannot grow without continuous supply of moisture on the walls and ceiling.

She spoke to us about the quality of our vinyl panels, we assured her that our panels are FDA compliant and ASTM tested, thus certified. We run a quality check on all our products before finally releasing them in the market. A fishery is always very safe and there are least chances of any hazard but it’s always beneficial to install a panel that has a 1-hour fire grade. Kim was impressed to install PVC panels because it’s full of benefits, the panels are chemical-resistant as well as light-reflective, she noticed a reduction in her energy bill to some extent because our panels evenly distribute the reflected light leaving no dark corners. She shared an image of her fishery saying “Now, my fishery looks impressive and is very hygienic, thank you Duramax.” We would love to hear such stuff from our clients.

Our experts ensured that PVC panels once installed would be a lifetime solution. We informed her that FRP is a sort of wall paneling that needs continuous maintenance and one has to reinstall a new panel real soon, maybe within a few years. Kim was also content knowing that she did not have to hire laborers for regular rigorous cleaning of the vinyl panels. It does not need any regular maintenance and is very easy to clean. The surface is smooth and there are no cervices to allow any bacteria to hide. Occasionally she got her maintenance team to wipe the panels with a dry cloth and it’s been over a year we got no complaints.

We told Kim that FRP is to be installed in high moisture areas and the prices are nearly the same with no huge differences. But, when it comes to maintenance, FRP is not long-lasting but the expenses are little high compared to that of PVC. When you compare the FRP cost to that of PVC, what matters is not the expense but the longevity.  But, savings being an important factor in business, we have the perfect stats that when you install PVC panels you save 40% of the material costs and 50% of the labor expenses compared to FRP.

Kim thanked us because it was easy to install a PVC panel, she hired only one expert for the job and she told us that PVC takes the fastest installation time and that was amazing.
