Overview
When incorporated into a building’s design, polymer wall and ceiling systems are an innovative material assembly that can improve the health, safety and well-being of occupants and those involved in the construction process. Polymer wall and ceiling materials are an environmentally sustainable alternative to many traditional building materials like drywall or fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) panels. They provide unique hygienic properties to protect the health and well-being of occupants as well as performance and aesthetic benefits to improve the safety of those occupying buildings.
