The hospitals need extra care and attention to maintain hygiene and cleanliness. After the pandemic, sanitization and cleanliness inside medical facilities are of paramount importance. The need for hospital wall dividers and panel boards is important to ensure safety, protection, and privacy. While hospital FRP wall panels were quite popular, the vinyl wallboard has recently taken over. The vinyl wall panels are considered better for medical facilities as they are 100% water-resistant and FDA-compliant. High-grade Duramax PVC Panels are a cut above the rest and often better than traditional FRP. Here are a few pointers that make PVC stand out while FRP falls short once again.
Low maintenance
The hospital wall divider made from 100% virgin vinyl is low maintenance and easier to clean than FRP. The PVC wall material has a smooth surface that doesn't attract dirt, dust, grime, or vapor. The PVC material is easily cleanable with a damp mop. Since PVC is chemical resistant, you can use soaps, detergents, and bleaching agents to clean the vinyl material. Sometimes washing the PVC panels with a pressure washer is enough to retain the squeaky clean look. It's because the vinyl panels never fade, stain, get discolored or turn yellowish.
On the other hand, FRP panels have a rough outer surface that stains easily and fades over time. Additionally, FRP panels turn yellow and get discolored with time. Get the FRP panels repainted and cleaned regularly for general upkeep. The FRP wall panels require professional maintenance, and upkeep is expensive. Consider switching from FRP to high-quality Duramax PVC Panels to cut costs in the long run.
Water-resistant and durable
The hospital FRP wall panels are not completely water resistant. The FRP wallboard has OSB backers and crevices that trap moisture and encourage mold growth. These are the real reasons that have made FRP panels obsolete, and PVC has emerged as the new favorite. The vinyl panels are waterproof, durable, mold-free, and antibacterial. The vinyl wall panels are exceptionally strong, with trusscore design to withstand heavy blows and high impacts. Duramax PVC Panels get recycled 7x times with a long lifecycle of 140 years. The PVC panels come with a $25,000 guarantee, as they can last 4x times longer than FRP. While FRP mold, rot, peel, degrade and delaminate – you will never find such vices in PVC. However, if Duramax PVC Panels ever start molding, peeling, delaminating, or rotting, then the manufacturers will get them replaced and also cover the installation charges as per the guarantee.
Quick PVC installation
Initially, the PVC panels might appear costly, but the DIY kits are all-inclusive and can curtail the installation charges. Installing PVC panels saves 40% on material costs and 50% on labor charges. This is because FRP will require additional installation materials and at least 2 skilled laborers for the setup. The FRP installation is slow, laborious, and expensive. Install PVC wall panels to save on installation costs and avoid callbacks. The PVC panels last a lifetime and arrive with a limited warranty certificate.
