SPC wall panel, or Stone Plastic Composite wall panel, is an innovative building material that combines the durability of stone with the flexibility of plastic. These panels are designed for quick installation, utilizing a click system and steel clip that allows them to be installed significantly faster and more economically than traditional materials like tiles or marble.
Due to their unique properties, SPC wall panels have become increasingly popular for both residential and commercial applications with impressive range of features and benefits.
What Makes Up an SPC Wall Panel?
SPC wall panel shares the same core composition as SPC flooring, with the main difference being their size and application.
Like their flooring counterparts, these panels are composed of several key components that contribute to their strength and functionality. Here’s a breakdown of their core elements:
- Limestone (Calcium Carbonate): Provides weight and stability, enhancing durability.
- Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): Offers flexibility and resistance to environmental stress.
- Stabilizers: Ensure the panels maintain their shape and integrity over time.
- Wear Layer: A transparent coating that adds scratch resistance and protects against wear.
SPC Wall Panel VS SPC Flooring
While SPC wall panel and SPC flooring share similar core materials, they differ significantly in several aspects to suit their specific applications:
- Wear Layer Thickness
- SPC Flooring: Features a thicker wear layer (0.3-0.7mm) to withstand foot traffic and heavy furniture
- SPC Wall Panels: Has a thinner wear layer (approximately 0.2mm) as walls experience less direct physical contact
- Dimensional Differences
- SPC Flooring: Comes in smaller planks for easier installation and replacement
- SPC Wall Panels: Available in larger dimensions (typically 2400mm length x 600mm width) to cover wall surfaces more efficiently and create fewer seams
- Installation Methods
- SPC Flooring: Primarily relies on click-lock system (such as Unilin, Valinge, i4F) for installation
- SPC Wall Panels: Utilizes a combination of:
- Click-lock system for panel-to-panel connection
- Adhesive backing for additional wall adherence
- Steel clips for enhanced stability and secure mounting
These differences reflect the distinct requirements and challenges of vertical versus horizontal applications, ensuring optimal performance in their respective uses.
Key Advantages of SPC Wall Panels
SPC wall panels address several common issues found with traditional wall materials. Here are some key benefits:
- Waterproof: Unlike wood or MDF, SPC panels are 100% waterproof;
- Fire Resistance: SPC wall panels come with fire-resistant properties;
- Durability: These panels are impact-resistant and can withstand heavy use without warping or cracking.
- Low Maintenance: Cleaning is straightforward, a simple wipe.
- Cost-Effectiveness: The cost of purchase and installation is less expensive than that of tiles.
