Cladding is a building system that is used to cover an existing structure with another layer of material, can be applied on walls and roofs. It does not have any structural function and is supported by the main structure. It is mainly used for aesthetic and hygienic purposes and is available in different materials, colors, and textures. There are a variety of cladding systems available, but the most preferred option is the hygienic wall cladding made of FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic), as they stand up to the toughest environments, without sacrificing the aesthetics of any space.
Given the recent pandemic, the focus has been far more on hygiene and cleanliness, and FRP panels help reduce bacteria and infection, as they are super easy and quick to clean. However, there is still some hesitation around the usage of hygienic wall claddings, that it might not meet the required standards – but that is simply a myth.
