PVCpaneelit

PVCpaneelit are lightweight wall and ceiling coverings made from polyvinyl chloride. They can be solid panels or foamed variants and come in textures from smooth to faux wood or tile. Most use a tongue-and-groove or interlocking profile for a tight installation and can be cut to size with standard tools.

Advantages include moisture resistance, easy maintenance, and no painting required. They are common in bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and other humid spaces. They install quickly and, due to their light weight, place less load on structures. They are available in various colors and finishes and are often affordable.

Installation typically involves adhesive or mechanical fixings to walls or ceilings, with expansion gaps for movement. Some systems allow installation over existing surfaces. Afterward, trim or seal joints and edges. Cleaning is simple: mild soap and water; avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch or dull the surface.

Limitations include susceptibility to scratching and denting, and potential discoloration from strong UV light unless UV-stabilized. PVC can soften near high heat. Environmental considerations include additives and stabilizers, recycling options, and disposal. Fire performance varies by formulation; always check product data sheets.

PVCpaneelit are a common interior finishing option in many regions, offering moisture resistance, speed of installation, and cost efficiency. Selection should consider thickness, profile, UV stability, and fire ratings to suit the space.
