When plastic panels appeared on the Russian construction market, they
made a splash and instantly caught on. Describing the room, the ceilings and walls of which were paneled, the mysterious and previously unknown word was uttered - "European-quality repair".
This glory of seemingly ordinary plastic is explained by the novelty and original decision to use well-known material. Very much by that time our compatriots were tired of paper wallpaper, the same type of ceramic tile and numerous layers of oil paint.
A lot of time passed before people were filled with new finishing material and ceased to perceive plastic panels as something surprising and exotic. However, today this material is still in demand and popular.
Plastic panels are made of polyvinyl chloride with the addition of a softener. They allow you to easily bring in excellent condition even the most unsightly walls. This versatile material, which can be used in different rooms, has numerous advantages:
- moisture resistance;
- antistatic (therefore, they do not accumulate dust);
- easy care (wash well with warm water and detergents);
- good sound insulation;
- simple installation;
- wide color palette;
- affordable price.
The conditional flaw of the material in question can be considered its artificiality. Indeed, now everyone is trying to fill their home with natural materials. But then plastic panels, the price of which ranges from 199 to 500 rubles per square meter, are quite affordable for everyone. Many believe that their cheapness is a minus. Of course, today plastic panels can hardly be called prestigious material. However, if there is a desire and a little imagination, a bathroom paneled can be turned into a work of art.
When purchasing plastic panels, pay attention to ensure that each canvas is perfectly even. The quality of installation depends on this. See how evenly the pattern is applied. In one package there may be specimens that in color saturation may slightly differ from each other. To avoid this, purchase panels that have the same batch number, make purchases in a specialized store.
Mirrored plastic panels can decorate any interior. They look spectacular in the hallways, living rooms, in the kitchen, in the bathroom. Such material can be used to decorate both walls and ceiling. It is available in different types - mirror, tinted. The back can be self-adhesive
Before mounting, carefully prepare the surface. It should not leave the old coating, grease stains, dust - everything that can interfere with the fixation of the plates. If they do not have a self-adhesive base, they are mounted on a crate.
Finishing the bathroom with the mentioned material is an ideal solution for newcomers. As you know, new houses shrink for some time, and traditional ceramic tiles crack, crack, peel off the wall. In this case, the panels are more resistant to deformation. When you have new ideas for the design of this room, you can easily dismantle the old coating. The photos of the plastic panels posted in this article demonstrate what kind of room the room will take if it is finished with this building material.
