Food processing is the procedure that changes food from its original state by processes like canning, heating, milling, freezing, and fermenting. Food processing units are doing good business because there is an escalating demand for processed and frozen food. This is an ideal choice in this fast and super busy lifestyle. Food processing facilities add a lot of value to edible products. The designing of a food processing unit requires complex steps. Food processing is a sequence of operations to convert unprocessed food to foodstuffs with extended shelf life. There are many food processing units operating in the USA. Most have installed food processing wall panels by replacing drywall, plywood, Mylar or FRP sheets. 

Vinyl panels – do not allow excess humidity to settle on the walls

A lot of wastewater is produced during food processing. This wastewater contains organic matter so its concentration varies. The water contains high ratios of volatile solids or total solids. This indicates higher energy content. The volume of wastewater varies to a great extent. Therefore, moisture is a big issue inside food processing units. Excess humidity inside the units can affect the condition of the walls and ceiling. Installing waterproof food processing wall panels can arrest the penetration of excess moisture into the walls and ceiling. The vinyl sheets are 100% waterproof and do not have backers. The surface of the panels is coated with an antibacterial layer that prevents the growth of mold and mildew.

The simple installation process – PVC panels

The panels are cut to shape before the installation. The process is not expensive or time-consuming. PVC sheets once installed, do not require replacement. Duramax’s $25,000 money-back guarantee backs this. Food processing wall panels are attached to the studs directly with concealed screws or fasteners. These boards can be installed in a vertical as well as a horizontal manner. One expert local contractor can install PVC sheets within 7 to 8 hours. These boards are ideal for cleanrooms, wet environments and other commercial or residential spaces that require hygiene. While installing these panels, there is no need for OSB backers. Duramax panels require almost half the material and labor costs.

Easy-to-clean vinyl boards

Food processing walls require rigorous cleaning to maintain the hygiene factor. Scrubbing the walls and ceiling causes damage in the long run. How about installing and adding PVC wall and ceiling panels? PVC boards do not need daily maintenance or cleaning. Gently wipe the surface to remove the little dust or stain with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner. We do not recommend using bleaches, acids, abrasives, or harsh agents. Vinyl panels have a smooth surface that does not attract bacteria, moisture, and humidity. If the panels need washing, give them a nice wash without worrying about moisture seepage into the boards. PVC panels keep the interior clean and hygienic. Food should be processed and packed inside a hygienic unit to ensure safety and prevent contamination and spoilage. 

Long-lasting PVC panels

Duramax PVC boards are durable and robust. They are made from 100% virgin and premium-quality raw vinyl. The panels are ½ inch thick and 16 inches wide and the length varies. The vinyl sheets are long-lasting, have a minimum shelf life of 45 to 50 years, and can last up to 100 years. Most business owners prefer installing vinyl boards over FRP panels or for space enhancement and improved shielding. Vinyl sheets are available in white color and they do not get yellowish with time. We design grey panels only upon receiving bulk orders. PVC boards are light-reflective. They can equally distribute the reflected light so you can have adequate light by installing fewer LED lights. 

Customized and eco-friendly panels

Our panels are used in commercial kitchens, fisheries, restaurants, dairy houses, warehouses, car washes, poultry, shipping containers, grow rooms, and more. Vinyl panels do not contain toxins so they are safe to use. The boards are lightweight and easy to transport. They can endure impacts and abuses and can resist stains and odor. Customized vinyl boards are eco-friendly, and recycling them produces little waste. The PVC sheets have a 1-hour Class A fire grade that prevents sudden fire accidents. 

ASTM-certified vinyl sheets

Duramax plastic panels are ASTM-certified, FDA-compliant and CFIA- certified. The sheets are fully waterproof so no moisture can get into the panels. The surface of the panels can arrest moisture keeping the walls and ceiling dry. The panel’s surface is covered with an anti-mold coating that prevents the growth of microorganisms and bacteria on the surface. Various advantages of PVC sheets have played a role in their popularity. The vinyl boards are ideal for interiors where moisture and humidity take a toll.
