Plastic cladding is available for both internal and external applications.
External cladding is intended to be both a decorative and protective layer to the outside of a building. Plastic is used widely for cladding as it offers excellent weather resistant properties that not only perform well but perform well for a number of years. Externally fitted plastic cladding is both UV resistant and easy to clean ensuring that an installation does not quickly need replacing due to performance decreasing and its appearance does not deteriorate while you reap the benefits of its long life.
The types of plastic wall cladding we offer are hollow cladding, which is perfect where weight is a particular consideration and V-groove or shiplap cladding which are both fairly similar products offering slightly different profiles.
Internal wall cladding can be achieved with these products but commonly internal cladding is utilised for hygienic situations and the material used is typically a large surface area flat sheet which greatly minimizes the need for joins. Joins being an area of increased bacteria growth where cleaning is more difficult.
Polypropylene wall cladding is utilised where hygiene is the key factor and fire resistance is of less importance. With good impact strength at low temperature and a light weight, this is commonly used in agricultural and food prep areas.
PVC wall cladding provides greater fire resistance and high level of hygiene and is typically used in areas such as commercial kitchens.
We at Bliby Plastics are able to offer a choice of materials and fixtures and fittings to fulfil your wall cladding requirements.
