Covering walls, corners and doors with a durable wall cladding system not only protects them against bumps, scrapes, dirt and general wear and tear, but also improves cleanliness and hygiene.  

 Polyflor South Africa is a leading specialist in wall protection solutions, offering a comprehensive range of products. The benefits of wall protection are explained through this series of before-and-after photos. 

Commercial applications 

Over time, furniture being moved and scraped along the wall cause damage that requires repair and maintenance. Protective wall cladding is a low-maintenance, easy-to-clean solution that saves costs over the long term. 

Gradus SureProtect Endure PVC-u sheets are coloured and textured to conceal the effects of impact and abrasion. These wall protection coverings help reduce the need to repair and repaint, optimising the appearance of building interiors. It is commonly used in areas with high pedestrian traffic such as corridors, canteens, classrooms and waiting areas. 

Bespoke finishes 

Gradus SureProtect Design PVC-u sheets provide a modern and stylish wallcovering in a range of wood, metal and composite finishes, with the option of a bespoke printed finish.  

 These finishes can be used to create inspiring interiors and are ideal for use in areas where design is key to aesthetics, but a level of protection is still required. 

Commercial kitchens 

Heat, food splashes and scrubbing can cause paint to discolour, mould or flake off, creating ideal conditions for bacterial growth. Gradus SureProtect Pure offers a hygienic wall cladding system for excellent surface protection. Specifically designed for areas where cleanliness is a priority, it provides an impenetrable barrier to moisture and bacteria along with resistance to impact damage.
