Hygienic Wall Cladding for Bathroom & Locker Rooms

Bathrooms and Locker Rooms are subjected to constant use, requiring frequent and regular cleanings. The walls must be designed to withstand the cleaning solutions that are used to disinfect the surfaces. These areas are wet environments as they are exposed to a lot of water and steam. The walls must be non-porous and the seams should be watertight so that bacteria cannot collect and grow. With soaps, shampoos and cleaning solutions, the walls have to maintain their color and not stain over time.

Requirements include:

• Impervious and non-porous
• Easy to clean and resistant to damage from cleaning chemicals
• No porous grout/caulk, in some cases no cracks or seams where contamination can grow
• Have high impact resistance to minimize cracks, scratches and dents
• Resists stains and odors
• Require minimal maintenance to ensure minimal downtime
• Durable with a long life
