As a construction or design professional, you have plenty of options when it comes to wall and ceiling materials. There are painted walls, masonry walls, cement walls, brick walls, plywood, wallpaper, gypsum wall panels, and many more.

But Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) panels are quickly replacing other building materials. If you want to know the reason, read on for the benefits of using PVC panels!

 

Wide Application

PVC panels can be applied to walls and ceilings, exterior and interior installations. As a versatile product, they’re the preferred choice for general construction.

Wide Application

From offices, hotels, hospitals, restaurants, halls and hallways, showrooms, lobbies, conference rooms, and to all the important rooms in a home. The possibilities are endless.

Because they are pliable and flexible, they may be ordered in lengths and designed to bend and curve in accordance with the designer’s creative plan.

For building exteriors, you can opt for PVC panels with added UV resistance. This adds color fastness to the panel and enables the designer to make use of the long list of advantages and benefits of PVC materials.

 

Fast Installation

Because PVC Panels are lightweight and durable, you can easily transport them to the site.

Compared to other materials, you don’t have to worry about creating a dusty and messy environment during installation. The area can be used immediately once the task is done. There is no extra finishing such as paint, varnish, or polish needed.

Fast Installation

Each panel has flashings that allow you to ensure the spacing between screws. PVC wall panels have a tongue and groove setup which requires simple tools and produce a clean look. Because of this mechanism, the materials can be quickly installed in a short time. If a single panel gets damaged, replacement is easy.

Another factor that makes PVC panels installation quicker is that the panels cover a large surface area. The material is available in custom lengths or in plywood dimension, so it’s possible to install them in areas with unusual measurements.

If needed, the panels can also be cut to size with simple tools.

 

Aesthetic Appeal

PVC wall panels can provide aesthetic appeal to your project. Over the years, this material has become one of the desired choices when it comes to decorative cladding. Some examples are secondary ceilings or suspended ceilings.

Aesthetic Appeal

Aside from the different colors available, the panels can also provide different patterns — such as wood, tile, mosaic, prints, graphics, woven images, even abstract designs, and more.

There is an infinite variety and designs and patterns available to PVC Panels. This is because the design is made of a film material laminated on the panel. Given the minimum order quantity, you as the designer may customize the design you want to have on the panel.

With PVC wall panels and ceiling panels you, as the designer, will have field day for creating your favorite designs in your projects.

 

Water Resistance, Fire Resistance and Durability

Resistance and Durability

PVC panels are also lightweight, but they possess excellent mechanical strength and toughness. When you choose PVC panels, you’ll know that they will last for years without warping or bending. The material will not rust, peel, or mold or break as ceramics do.

The material is water-resistant, which means that you can also use them in areas that are prone to dampness — such as bathrooms or basements. It won’t soak up water and can also prevent bacterial growth.

There are also PVC panels that offer fire-resistance properties, a prerequisite for walls and ceiling in building codes.

One example is the WorldClass PVC Ceiling and Wall Cladding, which has a UK Class 1 Fire Rating. Before receiving this rating, a material undergoes testing. Class 1 means that the material has the lowest flame spread.

For beauty, long lastingness and safety.

Why settle for less?

 

Low Maintenance

Low Maintenance

PVC panels are becoming the preferred option compared to other building materials because they’re zero to low maintenance.

The material will not need repainting too.

PVC panels are easy to clean because they don’t have pores or cracks where dust and other contaminants can accumulate. If you spot a stain, the surface can be wiped down with a cloth. In addition you may wash the material and let it air dry. They are truly water-resistant.

When done with care PVC panels may also be dismantled from their original installation and recycled in other applications. Washed clean, fitted well in their new locations, they look good as new!

True for PVC walls and ceiling in interior and exterior applications!

 

Budget-Friendly

Budget-Friendly

Material cost is one of the main considerations during construction, designing, and renovation. This is where PVC panels provide the advantage when compared to other building materials. The material itself is reasonably priced, but the features of PVC make it a worthy investment too.

This is because PVC panels are also easy to install and maintain, which means that your total costs will be lower than if you had other materials installed. The material has a long life span and is highly durable, so the need for replacements is low. As a one-time investment, they’re cost-effective in the long run. Because of these reasons, PVC panels are suitable for both institutional, commercial and residential building projects.

 

Key Takeaway

PVC panels are one of the best options when it comes to wall and ceiling installations. With aesthetically pleasing designs to choose from, this material is suitable for a wide variety of projects.

Designers and professionals know that there are so few materials that carry the features of water resistance, durability, great aesthetic value, water resistance, fire resistance, low maintenance, fast and easy installation and budget friendliness all in one product. And these features are all found in PVC walls and ceiling panels.
