Wall and ceiling covering is not a new concept, but different materials are available due to the advent of technology. An FRP wall panel is not suitable for commercial interiors with excess humidity. PVC panels are waterproof and have many other advantages. The use of vinyl panels is expanding in the USA so much that companies that once used to design an FRP wallboard now manufacture vinyl panels. 

PVC panels are easy to install and simple to clean

PVC panels are easy and hassle-free to install. The panels do not have backers instead attached to the studs directly. They have tongues and grooves for hassle-free installation. One experienced contractor can complete the installation process within 7-8 hours. An FRP wall panel is not easy to install as it has backers and complex processes. More than one professional is needed to handle the installation.

The process is expensive compared to PVC panels. PVC panels have a smooth surface without crevices. Cleaning and maintenance is an easy task and you do not need to do it regularly. Wipe the panels with soap water occasionally and you can wash them when it feels right. Vinyl panels do not attract moisture or humidity inside. 

PVC panels are a one-time investment

PVC panels are slightly expensive compared to FRP panels. You should not be attracted to the lower pricing of FRP panels because it is not a single time investment. FRP panels require frequent repairs and the replacement is expensive. Had it been a one-time investment, it would be a great deal. FRP panels peel off, crumble and delaminate within a few years. PVC panels cost higher but it is a single-time investment. It is worth paying a little more for an extremely long-lasting solution. The panels can last for almost 45-50 years with minimal maintenance. Annual maintenance is required to maintain the vinyl boards. PVC panels are ideal for moisture-laden commercial interiors.
