Proclad Solid Colour Kits
What is Proclad solid colour cladding used for?
Proclad is a hygienic uPVC system designed to create smooth, waterproof wall surfaces for moisture-prone and high-cleanliness environments. It is widely used in bathrooms, kitchens, utility rooms, healthcare settings and commercial washrooms.
The non-porous surface eliminates grout lines, reducing areas where mould and bacteria can develop. This makes it a practical choice for both domestic and commercial applications requiring durable, easy-clean finishes.
How does Proclad compare to other wall cladding materials?
Coloured uPVC cladding offers clear design advantages over painted plaster, timber panels and tiles in wet or hygiene-critical spaces. When correctly installed, it provides a fully waterproof surface with minimal maintenance.
Unlike timber or MDF, it will not swell, rot or absorb moisture. Compared to tiles, it removes the need for grout and reduces ongoing cleaning requirements, making it well suited to coloured wall panels in functional environments.
What sizes and colours are available?
Panels are available in multiple sizes and a broad selection of wall panel colours to suit different layouts and design requirements. Larger panels reduce visible joints, while our colours of uPVC cladding support both subtle and bold interiors.
Lighter tones enhance brightness in smaller spaces or give a neutral contemporary effect. Bolder cladding colours can be used for statement feature walls, highlights to accentuate a neutral space, or branding or zoning in commercial environments.
Are Proclad coloured wall panels suitable for wet areas?
Yes. Proclad panels form a watertight system when installed with the correct trims, adhesives and sealants. Interlocking joints and sealing components prevent water ingress and protect the substrate.
This makes them suitable for showers, bathrooms and other consistently wet areas where long-term waterproof performance is essential.
How easy is Proclad Colour cladding to install?
Large-format panels cover more surface area than tiles, reducing installation time and the number of joints. No grout is required, simplifying the process.
DIY users can install their coloured uPVC panels by following manufacturer guidance. For complex layouts or commercial settings, professional installation is recommended to ensure a fully sealed finish.
How durable is Proclad coloured wall panelling?
Proclad panels are designed for long-term use in demanding environments, and we offer a 10 year guarantee subject to correct installation. Our Proclad coloured wall panels resist moisture and staining and everyday impact, making them suitable for high-traffic areas.
Compared to tiles, uPVC panels are less brittle and less prone to cracking or chipping, maintaining their appearance and safety without repainting or regrouting.
How do I choose the right cladding for my project?
Selection depends on environment, usage and desired finish. Consider moisture exposure, cleaning frequency, durability and installation method.
Wet areas require fully waterproof systems, while kitchens benefit from wipe-clean surfaces. Commercial settings may prioritise hygiene compliance and durability alongside suitable uPVC cladding colours.
What should I know before buying coloured uPVC wall panels?
Accurate measuring and product compatibility are essential. Ensure you select the correct panel size and include all required trims, adhesives and sealants.
Common issues include under-ordering materials or choosing panels unsuitable for wet environments. Reviewing specifications in advance helps avoid delays and additional costs.
What guarantees or warranties are included?
Most Proclad systems include a manufacturer’s guarantee, often around 10 years, covering product defects under normal use.
Coverage typically depends on correct installation and use of approved accessories. Damage from misuse or incorrect fitting is not usually included, so terms should be checked before purchase.
