Marinas remain exposed to the water and need complete protection to avoid dampness and other moisture damage. Traditional wall panels like FRP are water resistant but require backer boards, which are vulnerable to moisture and result in mold formation. Moreover, FRP panels for marinas are no longer a practical solution, as they rot, crack, form crevices, and discolor over the years. However, choosing PVC panels can be an ideal solution as they are 100%
waterproof and have exceptional longevity. Installing PVC panels in marinas can prevent untimely damage and the need for frequent repairs and replacements.
waterproof and have exceptional longevity. Installing PVC panels in marinas can prevent untimely damage and the need for frequent repairs and replacements.
Here are a few features of PVC panels that make them competent for marinas:
Lightweight constructions make installation fast and easy
PVC panels are lightweight and easy to handle and install. Moreover, they implement the tongue and groove mechanism to interlock the panels, making the installation convenient and time-effective. Furthermore, unlike frp panels, PVC marine wall panels directly fit the walls without the need for backer boards. PVC panels make for the most convenient option for marine wall paneling with their versatility and convenience of use.
FDA-compliant panels eliminate the risk of mold formation
PVC panels meet the FDA’s stringent safety and quality regulations and are also ASTM and CFIA-certified. They are one of the most hygienic and reliable wall paneling solutions to maintain a sanitary environment. They do pose any health threats, nor do they impact the functionality or efficiency of the facilities. Additionally, they have an antibacterial coating to prevent bacterial or fungal growth and keep contamination at bay.
Moisture-resistance prevents dampness
The use of virgin vinyl in manufacturing PVC panels makes them completely resistant to moisture and humidity. Moreover, they have a non-porous and seamless surface that eliminates the scope of moisture accumulation on the surface. The waterproof nature of PVC panels helps to prevent the formation of damp patches and eliminates the risk of moisture damage. Thus, PVC marine wall panels can ensure a damp-free and hygienic environment inside the marinas.
