The FRP wall panels are no longer considered an ideal cladding material for high-traffic restaurants and commercial kitchens. The problem began when FRP panels started to mold, rot, peel off and delaminate. Restaurant businesses wanted a permanent wall cladding solution, and the FRP wall panels were not serving the purpose. That's when FRP panels got replaced with PVC wallboard. Duramax restaurant wall panels made from 100% virgin vinyl are durable, waterproof, and a better replacement for FRP. Here are a few reasons to choose PVC wall material for restaurants rather than traditional FRP.
FRP panel installation is not affordable
Did you know FRP wall panels take 2 days to install and require 2 skilled laborers along with additional materials like rivets, adhesives, and OSB backers? The FRP wall material is low-cost, but the heavy-duty installation is expensive. The traditional 4'x8' FRP material costs only 70 dollars, while the entire installation cost goes up to 140 dollars, double the amount. On the other hand, PVC wall panels arrive in DIY kits and require no additional resources or expert assistance. The 4'x8' PVC wall material costs around 84 dollars, and the panel installation requires no trimming or additional materials, lowering the setup charges. You can at the most, hire a novice laborer with 5 dollars to install the DIY PVC panels within 7 - 8 hours. Thus, PVC panel installation does not exceed 89 dollars, proving that PVC is more cost-effective than FRP.
FRP panels are high maintenance
The FRP panels turn yellow, mold, rot, and require professional upkeep to ensure durability. The FRP panels have a rough texture that stains easily, and with the wooden backers, that panel board isn't washable. FRP maintenance is expensive, making restaurant businesses choose the PVC restaurant wall panels. The PVC panels are white, bright, and stain-free. The light-reflective PVC panels have a smooth surface that doesn't require professional maintenance. The PVC panels are cleaned with a damp mop and detergent. The vinyl panels are 100% waterproof and can be washed with a pressure washer. PVC panels never turn yellow, fade, rust, or rot, unlike FRP.
Choose PVC with a $25,000 guarantee
Avoid FRP panels if you are looking for waterproof wall cladding material. The FRP wall panels have OSB backers that absorb moisture. The FRP wall panel mold, peels off, delaminates, and is unsuitable for restaurants and commercial kitchens. If you want permanent wall paneling, shift from FRP to Duramax wall panels. The PVC panels are waterproof and ensure a damp-free zone. Mold, mildew, and bacteria cannot thrive in damp-free ceilings and walls. The PVC panels have no crevices to harbor waste matter, grime, oil, bacteria, and filth. The PVC panels are FDA-compliant, ASTM-certified, and CFIA-certified. Duramax offers a $25,000 guarantee if your PVC wallboard molds, peels off, or delaminates similar to FRP. Duramax replaces the PVC wall material and covers labor expenses up to $25,000.
