Healthcare and care rooms
Think about repeated cleaning, contact around beds or equipment, and the details at doors, corners and service penetrations.
BIOMAX APPLICATIONS GUIDE
The demands on a wall change from room to room. Explore how cleaning, moisture, wear and installation details influence the choice of a hygienic wall system.
Explore the settingsSTART WITH THE USE OF THE ROOM
BioMax combines a wipe-clean PVC wall finish with an antimicrobial characteristic of the material’s surface. Whether it suits a particular room also depends on the cleaning regime, the condition of the underlying wall, the amount of contact the surface receives and how the finished installation is detailed.
Use the questions below to shape a specification. Confirm project requirements and current product documentation before selecting sheets and components. Antimicrobial surface performance does not replace cleaning or other site hygiene procedures.
COMPARE THE SETTINGS
Think about repeated cleaning, contact around beds or equipment, and the details at doors, corners and service penetrations.
Review the cleaning method, likely splashes, moisture exposure and proximity to equipment before planning sheet joins and wall-to-floor details.
Consider the room’s own specification, the chemicals used for cleaning and the location of benches, services and sensitive junctions.
Map washing routines and potential knocks in consultation, treatment and animal holding areas. Pay attention to corners and lower wall sections.
ACROSS EVERY APPLICATION
A useful specification should describe the full wall assembly and the way it will be maintained, not just name the sheet.
What is the condition of the existing substrate?
Which sheet length best fits the wall and access route?
Where will joins, corners and exposed edges fall?
Which cleaning products and routine will be used?
What project-specific evidence or approvals are required?
EXAMPLES FROM SANICLAD
These project accounts show the kinds of rooms in which BioMax has been selected. Review each project on its own terms rather than treating it as a specification for another site.
Saniclad documents a BioMax installation in kitchen areas, including the way panels and finishing details were brought together for that project.
