Hygienic wall cladding is an ultra-hygienic, tough and hard wearing, visually attractive and highly cost-effective wall protection and finish. With these important features, hygienic wall cladding has become a vital component for many environments, from surgical theatres to commercial kitchens, and across a diverse range of industries. Importantly, its anti-bacterial properties, and clean, smooth finish to surfaces, allows for easy cleaning and maintenance. 

Benefits of Installing Hygienic Cladding

Quick, clean install

Hygienic wall cladding is often used instead of tiling due to the design and composition of the panels. This it allows for a much quicker installation time, whilst still retaining hardwearing and water-resistant qualities. It cannot crack, craze, or fall off (as can tiles) and no wet trades are employed during installation.

Tailored to meet exact measurements

It is possible to cut cladding sheets to any size. Installation is easy, and sheets can be hot welded together, if necessary, to cover larger areas. Thermoforming sheets around corners and boxes maintain hygienic conditions.

Hygienic Cladding is low maintenance

Cladding sheets are installed without the necessity for any grouting operation, as joints can be welded. This means that the installation can be completed quickly and, importantly, involves almost no maintenance. This avoids the regular use of heavy bleaching or scrubbing.

Fits with your interiors

Hygienic wall cladding sheets are available in a range of colours and finishes, as well as white. This means that you can meet your decorative design objectives, as required.
