Whether you’re building a new facility that requires a cold storage room or retrofitting a walk-in cooler into an existing structure, you need a long-lasting, low-maintenance, hygienic, and hassle-free wall and ceiling solution that meets the highest standards of cleanliness and product integrity. You need Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard.
A High-Strength, Hygienic, and Easy-to-Install Alternative to FRP for Cold Storage Rooms and Walk-In Coolers
Walk-in cooler and cold storage room walls need to withstand the constant presence of moisture, fluctuating temperatures, and regular cleaning. While fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) panels are a durable and hygienic option that are commonly used for cold storage – especially in food processing facilities – they aren’t going to last when exposed to these unique conditions.
Why? The constant exposure to moisture from changing temperatures and regular cleaning can cause the adhesive used on plastic FRP panels to degrade. The breakdown of the glue then creates spaces where water and moisture can become trapped between the plastic panel and its backing, providing an ideal breeding ground for mold, mildew, and bacteria. If it’s undetected, this hidden growth poses a huge risk to items stored in the cooler – food and perishable items in particular.
Available in 8’, 10’, 12’, 14’, 16’, and 20’ lengths, Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard is the answer for coolers and cold storage rooms of any size. Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard is compliant with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) requirements.
Made from PVC, Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard panels are non-porous, are 100% moisture and water resistant, and are designed to shed water. They install without a backer board or messy glue, and the installer-friendly tongue and groove interlocking system creates a watertight seal to protect the wall behind the panels. On the surface, panels are non-porous and antimicrobial to prevent bacteria, mold, and viruses from taking hold. And cleaning the walls of your walk-in cooler is never a problem: Panels can withstand repeated wipe-downs with soap and water, chemical cleaners, or pressure washing without ever showing signs of wear and tear.
When it comes to walk-in coolers, choosing Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard means you never have to worry about the integrity of your wall panels. You can confidently maintain a clean, sanitary, and safe environment for all your stored goods.

Moisture & Water Resistant
Walk-in coolers and cold storage rooms are subject to temperature fluctuations and high humidity levels. When exposed to these conditions over time, the glue used to adhere FRP panels to their backing material can deteriorate or delaminate, creating hidden gaps and jeopardizing the integrity of the panels. Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard panels, on the other hand, don’t require a backing material and are simply fastened using stainless steel screws. The smooth, non-porous panels are also 100% moisture and water resistant, and they won’t warp, swell, or grow mold and mildew.
Hygienic & Easy to Clean
If you’re planning to use your space for food storage, organic matter (like plants or flowers), or other perishable items, you need a wall covering that’s both hygienic and easy to clean. Per third party testing (ISO 846:2019), Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard provides complete protection against mold, bacteria, and viruses. Trusscore panels can also handle repeated pressure washing and won’t be harmed by detergent or chemical cleaners. Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard is also compliant with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) requirements.
Strong & Durable
If your walk-in cooler or cold storage room gets a lot of foot traffic or the walls are frequently bumped when moving product in and out, you may think that FRP is the only covering that will keep your walls free from damage. However, Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard offers more than enough protection without any of the longevity issues caused by glue: The abrasion resistance of PVC means that Trusscore panels are impact-resistant and can stand up to contact without showing dents, cracks, or damage. Plus, when you combine the mechanical strength of PVC with the unique truss design of Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard, you get panels that can outlive the buildings they’re installed in.
Lightweight & Easy to Install
Installing FRP requires multiple experienced laborers, and even if you hire the best of the best, you’re likely looking at days spent on installing a wall covering. With Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard, installation is over before you know it. The lightweight panels have a tongue and groove interlocking system and pre-punched screw flange, so they can be installed far faster than FRP with fewer people. No backing material, messy glue, or special tools or skills are required. The panels can also be applied directly over existing FRP, drywall, or bare studs, so you won’t have to waste time with a demo if you’re replacing an inferior product.
