Weekly U. S Polymers Recap:
This week we will discuss the differences between PVC panels, a newer innovation into the walling industry, and FRP or fiber reinforced plastic which have long been the industry standard. We are proud to say that U.S Polymers PVC panels are manufactured right here in the U.S.A whereas majority of FRP panels are manufactured in China. Manufacturing is just one difference between the two, but keep on reading and you will be able to understand why we believe our PVC panels are by far the best product on the market for various businesses across multiple industries.
FRP panels require a backer (OSB, Drywall, or plywood). This in turn doubles the material cost as well as the labor cost, because the installation requires a professional, glue, and surface fasteners. PVC panels are 1/2” thick and require no backer; cutting the material cost by 40% and the labor cost by 50%. One of the most distinguishing differences between the two are that PVC panels do not absorb moisture, leaving little to no room for mold or bacteria to grow. FRP panels on the other hand are able to absorb moisture. This requires FRP panels to constantly be repaired and replaced. We can conclude from the above information that PVC panels would be a better walling option for a long- term solution to your business! Contact us now to get more info or refer a friend.
