We get so many phone calls everyday of clients who are not happy with the FRP panels peeling off really soon and they wish they had installed PVC panels. A lot of people once used FRP for wall paneling but with the invention of PVC, the popularity of FRP boards has taken a back seat. So, vinyl is here to offer FRP a very tough competition.

Mike, who owns his own hydroponic farming facility, was bothered with the walls getting damaged in spite of installing Fiber reinforced panels. He can also see the panels coming off and now he is looking for something really durable. We explained that Fiber reinforced panels absorb water and moisture through its backers, the water vapor gets sealed in-between the walls and backers and this damages the walls. This is why PVC panels are becoming popular in the industrial sector mainly for use in dairy rooms; grow rooms, agriculture, food processing, fisheries, commercial kitchen, restaurant, fisheries, hydroponic farming, medical sector and more.

Vinyl panels are now very popular in hydroponics farming, an indoor method. Mike owns a hydroponics farming facility but the walls have been damaged so he is now very worried about it. Budget is also a very big factor because he did spend a huge sum on owning this and for doing its interior. He discussed his concerns with us, he wanted to install PVC panels for all the advantages he heard of, mainly the affordability factor.

Hydroponic farming is a very innovative idea; it acts as a great support when the weather and soil conditions are not suitable for outdoor farming. Indoor farming keeps the environmental and weather factors under control. We ensured that our panels are made of high quality vinyl. All our panels are ASTM certified and FDA compliant, this ensures that we abide by the guidelines while manufacturing. All our products run through an automated quality check before it’s out for delivery in the market.

The biggest advantage of PVC panels is its waterproof. Hydroponics framing units have a lot of moisture inside because water is indispensable for the growth of plants. You can never do away with the moisture factor but protect the walls and ceiling by installing vinyl panels. PVC does not have backers so it does not absorb water as our panels are mold resistant and also anti-bacterial. The panels are also chemical resistant and this is very essential for an indoor farming facility because Mike uses so many types of fertilizers and nutrients. Duramax vinyl panels have a 1-hour fire grade; this can help in controlling any immediate fire hazard.

Mike was desperately looking for a long term solution; Duramax panels have a longest lifespan compared to all other types of wall paneling solutions. PVC panels are white and light-reflective and this ensured that Mike could keep his energy bills low. These panels can evenly distribute the reflected light so that there is equal and proper light throughout the facility.

 Vinyl is easier to clean, it has a smooth surface with no cervices and this is not favorable for bacteria to thrive on it. But FRP boards have a rough surface which is pretty difficult to clean. Installing PVC is also very easy and only one expert can do the installation in least time. Mike did not have to spend any extra money on buying any other materials or hiring laborers.

Like Mike, if you also have passion to start your own indoor farming, make sure you set up the unit interior once by investing and be rest assured for a lifetime. Request for a quote, get a free sample.
