A commercial brewery is a high-traffic zone where hygiene and cleanliness play an important part. These places are prone to humidity, moisture, dirt, and mold. All these issues can lead to contamination and threaten the hygiene of the commercial unit. Earlier businesses used to tackle this problem by installing breweries FRP panels, but now things have changed. FRP panels are no longer the trusted wallboard to deal with damp walls and ceilings. FRP panels have several drawbacks that have led commercial sectors to invest in 100% virgin vinyl breweries wall panels. Although the vinyl panels might look expensive at first glance, the durable wallboard coming at factory-direct rates, fully customized within two weeks, is a one-time investment. Here are more reasons to renovate the brewery with vinyl wall panels rather than FRP.
Damp-free walls and durable panels
The breweries FRP panels are a great choice, but the wall material starts absorbing moisture and degrades over time due to the wooden backers. The adhesives loosen up, and the wallboard starts peeling off and delaminating fast. That’s the reason why installing vinyl panels is the better choice. The PVC panels have no backers that would attract moisture. The non-porous wall panels do not allow any drizzle to settle on them. The liquids glide down the smooth PVC wall panel surface without damaging and wetting the material. PVC wall panels shed off moisture and do not allow water seepage to dampen and damage the walls and ceilings. Duramax PVC panels made from virgin vinyl are 100% waterproof and not susceptible to water vapor. The PVC panels have exceptional durability lasting for 40 to 50 years without any damage, and need repairs, replacements, or refinishing. Duramax panels are unique with an internal webbed truss design and have ½ inch thickness, making them highly resilient, strong, and more durable than any other wall material.
Mold-free and FDA-compliant
The PVC breweries wall panels are mold-free and antibacterial. The PVC panels restrict mold and mildew infestation due to their waterproofing qualities. The wall panels are hygienic and fully compliant with the FDA parameters. The Duramax wall panels are ASTM-certified and meet the quality standards of CFIA. The certified and compliant wall panels are ideal for commercial breweries to ensure that non-toxic and safe wallboards are installed to cover the walls and ceilings. Duramax manufacturers further go a notch higher and inspect every panel order to quality check. After quality checking and approval from Duramax experts, the wall panels are shipped and dispatched to the respective customers. Duramax panels have the longest lifespan and are ideal for wet environments and cleanrooms. The premium-quality panels ensure cleanroom sanitary conditions inside the commercial brewery.
Ease of installation
Unlike FRP, the Duramax wall panels get installed in the shortest span of time. It takes ideally 7 hours to install vinyl wall panels. The Duramax PVC kits come with a user-friendly installation manual that makes the job easy for a novice to install the wall panels. The PVC panels require no labor or extra material for the installation. However, hiring two workers to speed up the installation will get the job done in 3 to 4 hours. Nevertheless, for FRP panels, the installation isn’t that simple. FRP panels require at least two days for installation, and the business needs to remain shut for that specific period of time. In addition, FRP panels require additional materials like backers, rivets, and adhesives. Moreover, FRP needs to get installed by hiring skilled laborers, and it’s not a DIY job. The additional expenses in installing FRP panels make the time-consuming and laborious job more tedious. PVC panels are easier, simpler, and a more pocket-friendly installation choice.
Easy upkeep
Maintenance of wall panels inside commercial breweries is a big hassle. FRP panels stain easily and are prone to dents and cracks. The wooden backers and external hardware are the main weaknesses of FRP panels that make them perform poorly in high-traffic commercial interiors. On the other hand, PVC wall panels are stain-free, corrosion-resistant, and do not fade. The impact-resistant wall panels are easy to clean with a damp mop and detergent. The PVC panels have no external hardware, and the hidden fasteners make the seamless panels stronger and more aesthetically appealing.
