Hygiene regulations in laboratories and other hygienically sensitive areas require wall surfaces be smooth and easy to clean, whilst being impact resistant and impervious to chemicals, bacteria and fungi.
Alternatives such as ceramic tiles often present problems such as cracking when subjected to impact from trolleys or equipment, creating areas for bacteria and fungi to accumulate.
The solution is Hygienic Sheeting, here are the top 5 reasons why we think you should use Hygienic Sheeting in your laboratory:
1. Quick Installation
Acrovyn Hydroclad can be installed quickly and effectively providing instant protection for your walls, meaning minimal downtime during installation or repair.
2. Vinyl Welding
Acrovyn Hydroclad can be vinyl welded providing a seamless smooth finish. Acrovyn Hydroclad’s smooth texture combined with vinyl welding provides an impervious non-porous surface which is easy to clean and maintain, and avoids the health risks associated with cracked tiles and unsightly grout.
3. Chemical Resistance
Acrovyn Hydroclad is formulated to resist most commonly used chemical solutions, and can withstand deep and clinical cleaning procedures.
4. Impact Protection
Acrovyn Hydroclad is a durable, robust wall covering that offers high impact resistance making it perfect for areas with moveable machinery and equipment
5. Anti-bacterial/Anti-fungal Properties
Acrovyn Hydroclad does not propagate the growth of bacteria or fungi on a clean surface (Tested to BS EN ISO 846: 1997 ‘Plastic. Evaluation of the action of microorganisms’). Routine cleaning will keep the sheet surface looking fresh and new for years.
