Each second, one hectare on the Earth is deforested. The global demand for wood, contributes substantially to this deforestation. Many of these trees are processed into boards, to be used in the interior décor and construction sector, as Chipboard and MDF.
MDF, with its formaldehyde content, has rightly been labelled the “The new Asbestos”. New products that “respect” the environment have been required for a long time.
Eco-friendly PVC Foamboards are a perfect, MDF, Chipboard & Wood substitute. The boards are manufactured from polymers and thermoplastics, thereby providing the advantage of 100% recyclability, which ensures the smallest environmental impact.
PVC Foamboard is a “green” product. It is toxin-free, containing no formaldehyde, sulphur, lead and so forth, making it a healthier and safe alternative. The obvious choice for home, office and commercial environments. PVC Foamboard complies with E0 European and RoHS Standards.
PVC Foamboard provides additional advantages to MDF, Chipboard and Melamine, with its natural resistance to, not only moisture, but also to insects.
PVC Foamboard is considered to be a lifetime investment product. Fresh from production, PVC Foamboards provide a consistently smooth and bright surface. They are lightweight, durable and provide excellent chemical resistance. In addition, the boards possess excellent thermal properties, making PVC Foamboard a versatile choice, suitable for both Interior and Exterior use.
PVC Foamboards are easily handled and can be machined using circular saws, jigsaws and CNC machines.
PVC Foamboards can be laminated/wrap with REATEC, rendering all interior elements “Green” and formaldehyde-free.

Hard and smooth surface. It is a critical criterion that designers & architects are interested in. Upon this advantage, PVC Foamboards have many interior design applications such as; kitchen cabinets, school desks, counter tops, showroom panels, wall panelling, reception counters, bulkheads, ceiling tiles, pause areas and restaurant counters, bathroom cubicles, surgeries and laboratories, and pretty much any application which is currently being met with traditional formaldehyde-infused products, such as MDF, Particleboard, High Pressure Laminates (HPL).
Painting surfaces of PVC Foamboard. PVC Foamboards can be directly painted on, which is glossy and smooth suitable with oil based or water based paint.
Complete resistance to water. PVC Foamboard is impermeable to water so it is an ideal product in areas with high humidity such as bathrooms & kitchens. In addition, PVC Foamboard can be applied to many other living spaces. PVC Foamboards are further, invulnerable to mold and mildew.
Resistance to insects. The main raw material is PVC thermoplastic, therefore, PVC Foamboard is absolutely insect resistant.
Non-toxic & environment friendly. MDF, Chipboard and Melamine, all contain formaldehyde and are toxic. Not only is PVC Foamboard environmentally friendly and recyclable, and it is also harmless to users as its main component is a non-toxic PVC thermoplastic. It gives off little dust and all the off-cuts and discarded components are 100% recyclable.
Resistance to Germs and Pathogens. Available in an anti-bacterial option which is 97% effective against MRSA and Ecoli. In its standard form, bacteria cannot live on, nor penetrate the surface, after standard cleaning methods have been employed.
Exceptional durability. Designers and manufacturers are choosing this product over traditional materials for the purposes of better quality and the added advantage that the PVC Foamboard’s life span is 30-40 years and highly resistant to extreme environments of slight alkalinity and acid, high humidity and seawater.
Simple construction. PVC Foamboard can be processes by traditional tools which is similar to woodworking tools. All off-cuts, rejects and discarded units or reclaimed units are purchased back by the Foamboard manufacturer at Rands per KG.
Cost and time saving. PVC Foamboard saves time and cost in the process of soaking, drying, UV spraying and surface flattening. Furthermore, the processes of fabrication & manufacture, using PVC Foamboard, does not release as much dust as that of natural wood, nor MDF and Chipboard.
Resistance to fire. PVC Foamboard is able to suppress or delay the production of flame to prevent the spread of fire. Accordingly, the application of PVC Foamboard to ceilings, tenement houses, schools and amusement areas is definitely a safe and efficient solution in the future.
Ease of fabrication. However, having similar characteristics, comparable density and weight to MDF, it can be processed using the same techniques. It can be machined, cut, CNC’d, routed, profiled and edged identically to MDF. However it’s 100% waterproof, offers zero swelling and boasts 2.5 x the screw retention, being suitable for tough environments internally and externally. The unique construction of PVC Foamboard, enables unparalleled possibilities for curves, profiles and right angles without affecting the surface integrity.

Shopfitting, Office, Laboratory Interiors. PVC Foamboard offers a new way for interior designers & manufacturers to achieve their design intent. PVC Foamboard have a wide application profile in shopfitting, office fit-outs, furniture, shelves, partitions, wall cladding and ceilings. With characteristics including; sound insulation, heat insulation and being UV (and colour) stable, PVC Foamboards are popular in various applications. The boards are certified as a “green” material and safe for health: RoHS certification, as well as E0 European certification.
Bathrooms/Washrooms. With interior decoration of living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms, it is worth noting that people nowadays are showing more inclination to bathroom interiors. It is highly recommended that designers & manufacturers should choose materials that are anti-mold, have good water resistance and exceptional durability, so as to save time and cost on maintenance and replacement. PVC Foamboard is the sustainable and optimal solution.
Kitchen Cabinets. PVC Foamboards are impervious to water, resistant to mold, mildew and insects and do not harbour germs. In particular, PVC Foamboard is certified as a green material and non-toxic. In addition, customers could combine PVC Foamboards with REATEC to produce kitchen cabinets. With such an available variety of aesthetically pleasing options, customers, interior designers & manufacturers can easily settle on a satisfying set of aesthetic solutions for kitchen cabinets, without needing to resort to MDF, Chipboard and Melamine.

Furniture. PVC Foamboards are an alternative to industrial and natural wood. Not only are they applicable to areas with high moisture, such as kitchens, bathrooms, toilet partitions and ceilings, but also have applications for office and home furniture as well as most interior décor.
Ceilings & bulkheads. PVC Foamboards suit high humidity and rainy climates. The product can prevent moisture transference via osmosis and does not promote pathogens caused by damp habitat. Furthermore, PVC Foamboards are able to suppress or delay the production of flame to prevent the spread of fire thus increasing time for residents/staff or the general public, to evacuate safely.
Interior & Exterior Advertising. PVC Foamboards have for a long time been the go-to product in the signage industry and will continue to be so. The boards can be manufactured in any colour, to various thicknesses and can be UV stable for up to 30-yrs.
Yachts/Boats. PVC Foamboards are lightweight therefore reducing overall weight and saving fuel. The product is thus a credible choice for yacht and boat interiors. Added to this, PVC Foamboard is able to withstand extreme seawater environments, is non-warping, and fire retardant, making it the right choice for sustainable solution to boat interior decoration.
