PVC boards score better when compared to traditional plywood. We have seen plywood or chip/particle boards used for many applications when building or repairing a house. However, more recently, architects and builders have started using PVC foam board instead of plywood & this seems to be a good choice owing to many reasons.
PVC Foam Boards, the first choice of Builders’ and Architects.
PVC foam boards can replace all those applications in which traditional plywood generally used like: Construction of wardrobes, cabinets, countertops and tables, doors, shutters and door-frames, back-panels of walls, classroom desks and benches, partitions, louvres and windows, false ceilings, fences, garden furniture, walls, office workstations, wall cladding, switch cabinets, interiors of yachts, control panels, signage, column wraps, etc.
PVC boards are available in several thicknesses from WPC board manufacturers. It makes them suitable for several applications & is available in different colours too.
The specific properties of PVC boards that make them highly useful in different types of applications such as the following:
- They are maintenance-free & do not need regular maintenance like wood and steel doors but only require dusting or wiping down with a soft cloth and cleaning agents.
- They provide enhanced efficiency.
- It helps to improve the project’s overall LEED or equivalent green building ratings.
