Hygiene and Durability Benefits of Solid-Surface Wall Systems for Your Facility

Solid-surface wall systems offer a host of benefits for use in facilities where hygiene and cleanliness are important. In today’s blog article, we want to talk about these solid-surface systems and how they would benefit your facility.

Installation

The first benefit is that of how these solid-surface wall systems are installed. They do not have seams or grout lines where bacteria can collect. The panels are installed either seamless or with seams that are virtually invisible.

Durability

Solid-surface materials are durable. They resist impacts that leave dents and scratches which are areas which can collect dirt. If they are damaged, they can be repaired, again leaving a smooth surface. This is one of several reasons why these wall coverings are so good at keeping rooms clean.

Cleaning

Cleaning these solid-surface walls is easy. Since the surface is not porous, there is no place for germs or microorganisms to hide, and dirt can be easily washed away.

Mold and Mildew

Solid surfaces are mold and mildew resistant. Mold and mildew cannot grow on them or hide behind them, which is not true of other porous surfaces. This is another reason why they are so easy to keep clean, and why they are so durable.

Integrated and Customizable

Solid surfaces can be integrated with other fixtures such as sinks. This eliminates the joints which typically harbor germs. The wall panels are also fully customizable and can be fitted to any shape of walls or rooms.

Any facility that has cleanliness as a high priority would benefit from solid surface wall materials. These are the best surfaces for easily keeping an area clean.
