New Industrial Panel & Cladding Options See Use in Kitchens, Hospitals, Farms
PVC liner panels cover the walls and ceilings of kitchens, hospitals, and agricultural farms worldwide. PVC's combination of durability and chemical resistance add to its longevity and ease of maintenance not seen with common cladding materials. Interstate Plastics now offers Duraclad® interlocking wall panels - the next evolution in cladding solutions for walls and ceilings. A sleek, durable polyvinyl chloride (PVC) panel, Duraclad® lines the walls and ceilings of food service areas, healthcare facilities, and farms, and has applications in the industrial, marine, and general commercial industries.
Duraclad®'s interlocking tongue and groove system sets it apart from other cladding solutions and makes it easy to install. This system avoids the complications of using screws and other securing materials and allows fasteners to be hidden behind the panels. The tongue edge has a heavy-duty flange with slotted fastener holes to expand and contract as necessary. As a result of the tongue and groove system, fully installed panels have a smooth, sleek, and uniform look.
Painted drywall, plasterboard, plywood, and other common materials for walls and ceilings are less than ideal for sanitation. Duraclad® PVC wall panels are waterproof and easy to clean and sanitize due to their excellent chemical resistance. They also provide high rigidity and strength thanks to their multiwall structure. These panels are non-flammable and have a Class A fire rating, making them safe for use in commercial kitchens.
Duraclad®'s ease of sanitation and installation has led to its use in a diverse set of applications. They line the walls of dairy, hog, poultry, and other livestock farms. These interlocking panels also see use as ceiling and wall panels for kennels, wineries, and food and chemical processing plants. They're even used in laundromats, event centers, and car washes.
Duraclad®'s standard color is white with high gloss, but it has good adhesion properties - it can be printed on or inked for desired patterns. It is available in 1/2" inch thickness and 16" x 120", 16" x 144", and 16" x 96" sheet sizes. A set of trim accessories are also available to help provide smooth finishes for corners.
