STORMclad Hygienic PVC Cladding Sheets

What is STORMclad?

STORMclad is a flat, solid PVC sheet. Specifically designed and manufactured for use in hygiene environments. STORMclad also offers excellent resistance to chemicals and is suitable for use in food industry applications. These sheets can be easily formed, fabricated, and used for digital or traditional printing.

The cladding is manufactured from strong foamed PVC sheets with a Class 1 Fire Rating and complies with all international standards. It’s easily fabricated and maintenance free too, making it perfect for use in the construction and hygiene wall cladding industries. STORMclad is competitively priced, readily available from Principality Plastics and comes with a complete range of trims and adhesives.

After purchasing these STORMclad sheets, we recommend that you clean down the sheets occasionally with warm water and a mild household detergent. You should use a soft cloth, and should avoid using brushes, sponges or abrasive pads that scratch the surface of the sheets. Please be sure to never use solvent-based cleaner on these products.

How to Install PVC hygienic cladding

1. Prepare your wall: The wall substrate must be dry, clean, flat, and even. Remove anything that would interfere with our adhesives.

2. Concrete: Level out uneven surfaces with plaster or concrete compounds, using adhesive. PVC wall cladding installation over uneven surfaces will result in less than 100% adhesion to wall substrate, creating air pockets to form behind the panels. This shouldn’t be a huge issue for STORMclad sheets, provided the recommend spacing and sealing requirements have been adhered to.

3. High/Low Temperature areas: If your concrete or brick walls are below grade where moisture can penetrate and interfere with good adhesive bonds, use furring strips, and install with mechanical fasteners. Follow the guidelines for expansion/contraction allowances carefully. Make sure the adhesive you use is recommended for these conditions.

4. Painted Surfaces: All loose paint must be removed. Adhesives will bond to the paint, so make sure that the paint is well applied to the walls. If necessary, use fasteners and adhesive together for more strength.

5. Apply Adhesives: Make sure the adhesive extends to all the edges of the PVC sheet. The main problem we encounter is that there is either too much or too little adhesive applied. Follow the adhesive manufacturers recommendations.

6. Attaching the panels: Start from the bottom profile: J-Connector or Floor Wall Cover. Start at a corner, then draw a vertical line. The first panel will then be laid precisely along this vertical line.

If plenty of panels are placed on a high wall, use both vertical and horizontal lines assuring alignment. Install one-piece corner profile. Apply silicone sealant in profile, then slide the panels into panels and withdraw a few mm.

Align with the plumb line, and if installing with adhesive, begin in the top corner nearest profile and with a laminate roller begin rolling down and out towards the edge without the profile.

This will help work out any air pockets and help ensure a flat installation.
