PVC panels beat both FRP and drywall for effectively protecting walls and ceilings

01 February, 2022

Commercial and industrial buildings require protective wall cladding to ensure durability, sturdiness, and structure resilience. However, the damp walls and ceilings are detrimental to health and can jeopardize the hygiene of the place. Furthermore, installing just any wall material like drywall and FRP isn’t enough. These wall materials are prone to water absorption and can irreparably damage the walls. Instead, get the durable PVC panels made from virgin material. Duramax is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of high-quality customized vinyl panels. In this write-up, you can note the reasons why PVC panels beat drywall and FRP to protect the walls effectively.

PVC is 100% waterproof

As a thumb rule, the drywall is susceptible to water damage. The drywall absorbs moisture and is not good for wet places and high moisture zones. Even the FRP wall panels have wooden backers that attract moisture and, with time, damage the wallboard. Both FRP and drywall are not water-resistant. However, such is not the case with PVC panels. Duramax wall panels made from 100% virgin vinyl are resistant to moisture and shed off the excess water from the non-porous surface. PVC wall panels have no wooden backers and don’t absorb moisture from the surface. The wall panels are a great choice for car wash garages, grow rooms, marinas, shipping containers, and so on.

 

PVC is hygienic, and quality checked

The vinyl panels are highly hygienic and a great choice for restaurants and commercial kitchens. The wall panels are FDA-compliant and ASTM-certified. The Duramax panels meet and exceed the CFIA standards. The smooth wall panels do not allow dirt and debris to reside at the corners. The wall panels have no crevices to harbor hidden filth and bacteria around the corners. The high-quality wall panels manufactured at Duramax undergo a quality check before getting dispatched to the commercial and industrial units. The hygienic and quality checked wall panels are ideal for food processing units, meat packaging sectors, hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and so on. On the contrary, the drywall and FRP are great for dry and clean areas requiring minimal maintenance and have considerably low foot traffic.

PVC installation is faster and easier

Did you know the drywall takes several days to install, and the FRP wall panels will take at the most two days for complete setup? However, the Duramax vinyl panels require only a few hours for installation. The wall panels come in small DIY kits with a user-friendly manual to aid the installation. Install PVC wall panels in just 7 hours with the help of one person. You can also double the speed by hiring two people and getting the work done in 3 to 4 hours. PVC wall panels are a great wall cladding choice for refrigerated warehouses, emergency shelters, breweries, Laundromats, and so on.
