Hydroponics farming is a popular farming technique practiced by enthusiasts in the USA. This farming method involves suspending plant roots in a solution that is rich in nutrient and oxygenated water. The solution is saturated in oxygen with the help of an air pump combined with porous stones. This method helps the plants to grow faster due to the high oxygen amount that the roots receive. Installing a PVC panel board can keep the walls and ceiling free from the effects of dampness, and there are other advantages too.

What is hydroponics farming?

Hydroponics farming is a method of growing plants where the soil is not used. Instead, a nutrient-rich solution is used. This prevents the chances of soil degradation and speeds up the growth process. When you own an indoor farm, you need not worry about the outdoor weather conditions and other forces of nature that could affect plant growth.

100% waterproof and certified vinyl panels

Humidity is a parcel of indoor farming but maintaining the facility seems to be a challenge. Keeping the walls bare or simply installing tiles is not a feasible solution. Instead, you require waterproofing the inner walls and ceiling, which would be a long-term solution.  Vinyl panels are made from 100% virgin vinyl. The panels are 100% waterproof, and they have an anti-bacterial coating. The panels are ASTM-certified, CFIA-certified and FDA-compliant. The panels have a 1-hour fire rating and are chemical resistant.

Are you trying to compare FRP panels to PVC panels?

If you already have FRP panels installed inside the facility, it is time to take off the damaged ones and re-install a PVC panel board. Fiber-reinforced plastic is not a waterproof solution. Hence, it is not suitable for interiors where humidity prevails. FRP Panels have backers that draw moisture inside, leading to dampness and damage of panels and walls. On the other hand, a PVC panel board is water-resistant and does not have backers. Therefore, the panels help in keeping the interior free from moisture and no damage is caused.

Hire local contractors for easy installation

A PVC ceiling board has a very long shelf-life of about 40-45 years or even more. The panels are slightly expensive compared to FRP panels. It is worthy of investing a slightly higher amount in panels that would last for a lifetime. Post-installation, there is no worrying about repairs or maintenance. The installation process is quite simple. The panels are attached directly to the studs, which makes the process hassle-free and inexpensive. One local contractor can complete the installation for an entire setup within 7-8 hours.
