Altro Whiterock
Altro Whiterock PVCu wall cladding systems are durable, hygienic coverings for internal walls. Showers and kitchens in particular benefit from these watertight, seamless, wipe-clean surfaces. These are areas where, traditionally, people have opted for ceramic tiles – which were never designed to cope with all modern hygiene requirements. The Altro Whiterock cladding system gives you a new option, and in many ways a superior one.
No gaps in front
The key difference is the lack of grout on the surface of a PVCu wall cladding. Unlike a tiled surface dirt has nowhere to hide and water can’t seep through to the substrate behind - a problem that can cause major structural damage to any building.
No gaps behind
Some people think that a wall cladding leaves a gap between the wall and the cladding itself. Altro Whiterock PVCu systems are sealed to walls. They are air and watertight, so nothing can get in behind.
Tough to crack
Altro Whiterock PVCu cladding has an extremely high impact resistance. Impacts that would leave ceramic faces vulnerable to water ingress barely leave a scratch on this tough surface. The same is true for the cladding’s thermoformed corners – an area where ceramic tiles are particularly vulnerable. Altro Whiterock PVCu cladding also has an excellent Fire Rating:
Maintains its appearance
Altro Whiterock PVCu cladding provides a smooth, continuous surface that is stain resistant and very easy to wipe clean.You won’t find any of the maintenance problems that grouted systems produce – like staining or individual tile failure.
Excellent life cycle costs
Along with its durable qualities, an Altro Whiterock PVCu cladding system represents good value for money because it’s such a fast, flexible system to install. The system’s panels adhere straight on to existing block-work or tiles so no ‘wet trades’ are required. Installation by our expert network of installers also includes the flexibility to match substrate movement so no expansion joints are required.
