Factors Affecting Performance Of Hygienic Wall Cladding

Ensure you know what to consider when specifying or purchasing hygienic wall cladding.

Master the essentials by reading our new white paper - Factors affecting performance of hygienic wall cladding.

The performance of wall cladding is not decided by a single product feature alone. It is the combination of a range of important factors encompassing product design, manufacture, installation and lifecycle.

Inspired by research carried out for Altro by renowned microbiologist, Peter Askew, this new white paper interprets the results of wall cladding product testing and research and development.

It outlines the key factors determining levels of performance, with particular reference to hygiene. Important commercial considerations during the specification and purchasing of wall cladding products are also reviewed in the light of imperatives such as sustainability.

The white paper focuses on the following for consideration when specifying or purchasing:

Performance factors

  • Integrity of cladding material
  • Bacteria protection
  • Adhesion integrity
  • Integrity of the product at potential points of stress / weakness
  • Quality of installation
  • Maintenance / cleaning regimes
  • Fire protection

Additional commercial considerations

  • Sustainability
  • Warranties and support
  • Design capabilities
  • Speed and ease of installation
