The FRP wall panels are a traditional choice because they are considered durable, strong, and ideal for grow room walls. That’s what is written on paper, but in reality, the downsides of FRP take over, making businesses take a different route to protect the walls from damage. The cannabis grow room walls do not benefit much from the FRP panel lining as the wooden backers absorb moisture and lead to dampness, mold, bacteria, and moisture damage. To avert excess humidity and moisture from damaging the walls and ceilings, investing in Duramax PVC panels is non-negotiable.
Waterproof and durable
Did you know Duramax PVC panels made from 100% virgin vinyl are waterproof and have exceptional durability lasting for 45 to 50 years with minimal upkeep? The Duramax wall panels have a non-porous surface and no OSB backers to absorb moisture. The panel board sheds off excess moisture rather than absorbing it, unlike FRP. Your traditional FRP panels have backers that attract moisture, resulting in damp grow room walls and ceilings within a few months. The dampness and moisture absorption weakens the adhesives and can delaminate the FRP wall material. Invest in a long-term wall cladding solution and get Duramax PVC panels.
Reduce energy costs
The cannabis grow room walls benefit from white and bright PVC wall cladding. The vinyl panels are light-reflective and enhance luminosity to reduce grow room energy expenditure. The PVC panels have a smooth surface that’s washable and resistant to chemicals. The PVC panels retain the luster and shine for a long time and reduce the reliance on artificial LED lights. On the other hand, the FRP wall panels have a rough texture and OSB backers that stain, attract moisture, and require professional upkeep to maintain the pristine white shine. Choosing the low-maintenance PVC wall cladding over the FRP panels is always wise, as FRP requires professional assistance for general upkeep.
Stop mold growth before it’s too late
Businesses installing FRP panels lack the knowledge that the wall material has backers, which absorb moisture and, within days, start molding. Probably all FRP panels will mold within a few days and rot within months when they come in contact with moisture. Smart businesses choose PVC wall panels with no backers as they are 100% resistant to mold, mildew, bacteria, moisture, microbes, and even fire. The PVC panels have Class A one-hour fire-rated resistivity and are ideal for commercial applications where electric short circuits and fire-related mishaps are common.
Cut costs by installing PVC panels
Install PVC to save 40% on material costs and 50% on labor expenses. The FRP panel installation requires additional materials and skilled workers, which gets quite expensive. On the other hand, PVC panels come in DIY kits and require no extra materials for installation. The DIY PVC installation is quick, hassle-free, and sometimes free of cost if you can do it yourself.
