Turn down FRP panels and install vinyl marine wall panels:

Retaining marina structures against constant tides and waves is a battle for every marina owner. They also face difficulties in ensuring hygiene and cleanliness standards inside highly humid environments of marinas. The places to park yachts and boats are the ideal breeding grounds for fungi and bacteria, making an unsanitary environment inside marinas. 

FRP vs PVC marine wall panels: What to choose

Choose the right wall panel to resolve dampness problems inside marinas. Once popular, FRP panels for marinas fail to keep the marine structure intact as they delaminate faster in moisture-prone areas. With vinyl-made PVC marine wall panels, maintaining marinas’ wall structure in high humidity becomes easy. The panels also create a clean marine environment, stopping bacterial growth on marina walls.

Limitations that make FRP panels for marinas a temporary fix

Dampens marina walls

Wooden backers in FRP marine wall panels are vulnerable to water absorption, making the panels moisture-absorbant in the high humidity of marinas. Within a few years, FRP panels develop damp patches and rot marina walls. Protecting the walls and maintaining a dry environment in marinas require you to spend substantial money on repair and maintenance in later stages.

Crevices promote bacterial and mold growth

Crevices between each FRP panel hide bacterial growth that leads to contaminating the entire marina interior. The adhesives and grouts in crevices offer adequate space for moisture to thrive. This accelerates mold and mildew growth on the surface of FRP panels, creating an unhealthy environment inside marinas. The textured surface of crevices also makes it challenging to clean FRP panels. 

Benefits of considering PVC marine wall panels

Moisture-resistant due to non-porous surface

Because of the smooth and glossy surface, Duramax’s vinyl wall panels do not absorb moisture from the marine environment. This reduces the possibility of dampness and other moisture-related damage on marina walls, allowing you to retain the wall structure as it is. You can also maintain dry spaces within marine structures by installing PVC wall and ceiling panels. .

Eliminates mold accumulation and bacterial growth 

The tongue and groove interlocking makes a smooth surface for PVC wall panels. The seamless and crevice-free surface allows vinyl marine wall panels to eradicate oil, moisture, and dust accumulation. This not only diminishes the scope of mold accumulation but also reduces bacterial growth. Consequently, making a hygienic environment inside marina interiors becomes possible.  Also, you can effortlessly clean accumulated dirt on wall panels with a damp cloth due to the smooth surface of PVC panels.

Meets the hygiene standards of FDA and CFIA
              

Duramax’s PVC panels are FDA and CFIA-compliant by adhering to stringent safety and sanitary standards. These wall panels are ASTM-certified which indicates that vinyl panels maintain quality standards in marina interiors. With antimicrobial coating, PVC panels eliminate the risks of bacterial and other contaminants’ growth on marina walls. This ensures a safe and clean environment for marinas.
