🔬 Solid Surface Cladding: Technical Specifications and Compliance
This section provides the essential data required by architects, designers, and facility managers for specifying hygienic wall cladding in commercial projects across Northeast Ohio.
Core Material Composition & Performance
Our solid surface cladding is fabricated from 100% acrylic or modified acrylic composite, ensuring a high-performance material that stands up to demanding commercial environments.
| Feature | Technical Benefit | Commercial Advantage |
| Non-Porous Surface | Prevents absorption of liquids and stains; inhibits microbial growth. | Superior Hygiene: Ideal for healthcare, labs, and food service. |
| Seamless Integration | Panels are chemically bonded and thermoformed, eliminating grout lines and visible seams. | Waterproof & Cleanable: Reduces maintenance and prevents water infiltration. |
| Repairability | Damage (scratches/chips) can be sanded or filled on-site without panel replacement. | Long-Term ROI: Extends the life of the installation and reduces repair costs. |
| Impact Resistance | ASTM D256 (Izod Impact) and ASTM D5420 (Dart Impact) certified. | Durability: Withstands heavy traffic and incidental contact in commercial settings. |
| Fire Rating | Class A Fire Rated (tested to ASTM E84). | Safety Compliance: Meets stringent commercial building and fire codes. |
Hygiene & Compliance
Solid surface material is a trusted choice for sterile and controlled environments due to its inherent sanitary properties.
- Mold & Mildew Resistance: The material is non-hydroscopic, making it unsuitable for the growth of common pathogens, mold, and mildew.
- Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to staining and damage from common commercial cleaners, disinfectants,and bodily fluids.
- Compliance: Meets necessary standards for installation in NSF-compliant areas (food service) and AHA Guidelines (healthcare).
- LEED Contribution: Materials may contribute toward credits for Indoor Environmental Quality due to low-VOC content.
Fabrication & Installation
We use advanced CNC routing and thermoforming techniques in our Medina facility to ensure precise, professional results.
- Panel Thickness: Available in standard commercial thicknesses (e.g., 1/2′′ and 3/4′′).
- Installation System: We utilize concealed mechanical and adhesive systems for a permanent, secure, and clean look.
- Warranty: Backed by a 10-year Commercial Limited Warranty on material and fabrication.
