Although some people think that the PVC wallcoverings are not good thermal and acoustic insulator, in response it should be said that due to the presence of air between the building wall and the surface of the PVC wall covering acts as an insulator. in other words, PVC wallcovering leads to energy savings in cold season. That means can be used for energy saving purpose.
Another advantage of PVC wallcoverings is increasing the building’s resistance against natural disasters such as earthquake.
PVC Laminate Benefits
PVC laminates are available in various thickness, textures and colors, which are engraved with different motifs, such as glossy, matte, wooden grain, etc. The standard thickness of PVC laminates is about 0.2 to 3 mm. PVC Laminates like PVC wallcoverings have benefits which are mentioned below.
PVC Laminates has high flexibility and can be designed in various shapes. For example, if PVC laminates are used for coating strips or edge profiles, they can be easily changed according to customer request.

PVC laminates are used to laminate MDF boards and plywood by using PVC vacuum membrane press machine.
PVC laminates can be used beautify furniture, kitchens, counters, bedrooms, etc.
Engravings can be carved on the PVC laminates by using PVC vacuum membrane press machine due to their high flexibility.
Embossed or double layer textures can be created with two colors on PVC laminates. By sticking two different layers of PVC laminate and design the top layer based on a pattern to become two beautiful colorful layers.
PVC
Polyvinyl Chloride (abbreviated: PVC) is a type of thermoplastic polymer. It is widely used in the chemical industry and often in the construction industry. At the present time, PVC is used as a substitute for most metals in buildings. it is estimated that the amount of PVC used in building construction has reached 60%. Ease of use, thermal and acoustic insulator and high resistance are the reasons of popularity of this material. Also, PVC can protect the building from earthquake or something danger like that.
PVC Wallcoverings
Wallcovering is one of the PVC products, which has been used as a building material instead of gypsum, wood, concrete and cement materials in recent years. PVC wallcoverings are usually produced in coated form (two-layer), which are insulator of thermal and acoustic. In some cases, PVC wallcoverings are produced in solid form to increase the strength and durability and does not need to infrastructure or foundation.
