Antimicrobial Wall Cladding Range - Saniclad BioMax™

Saniclad BioMax™ antimicrobial wall cladding is engineered with an antimicrobial surface designed to help inhibit bacterial growth on the panel surface, providing an added layer of protection compared with standard hygienic PVC wall cladding. You still get the core benefits Saniclad customers need — a smooth, wipe-clean, moisture-resistant finish — but with enhanced suitability for hygiene-critical settings such as hospitals, laboratories, education, food preparation and wash-down areas. In the Saniclad BioMax™ range, sheets are supplied in 2.0mm thickness and available in 2.44m x 1.22m and 3.05m x 1.22m sizes, helping reduce joins for a cleaner, more professional finish. The panels are food-safe certified and tested to EN 13501-1 fire rating standards, making them a strong specification-led choice with practical benefits for installers and facilities teams.

Saniclad BioMax™ antimicrobial wall cladding is supplied as 2.0mm PVC hygienic wall panels in two practical sheet sizes: 2.44m x 1.22m and 3.05m x 1.22m. The key decision is usually wall height and how many joins you want to minimise. If your wall height suits the 3.05m option, you can often reduce horizontal seams, which supports better hygiene control and a neater visual finish in high-traffic commercial interiors. The 2.44m sheets are ideal for many standard-height rooms and can be easier to handle in tighter spaces. Both sizes deliver the same antimicrobial performance and wipe-clean surface, and both integrate with compatible trims and silicone for a sealed hygienic system. If you’re unsure, Saniclad can advise based on your room dimensions and usage environment.

Yes. Saniclad BioMax™ antimicrobial wall cladding is designed for environments where hygiene performance is a priority, including healthcare facilities, laboratories, clean working areas, schools, commercial kitchens and food production sites. The antimicrobial surface helps inhibit bacterial growth on the panel surface, supporting more robust hygiene control alongside regular cleaning protocols. The smooth, non-porous PVC finish is easy to wipe down and helps resist moisture, making it suitable for wash-down routines and daily maintenance. Saniclad BioMax™ sheets are supplied in a 2.0mm thickness for reliable rigidity and durability, and are available in 2.44m and 3.05m lengths to reduce joins and improve finish quality. They are also food-safe certified and tested to EN 13501-1 fire standards, which supports specification requirements in regulated commercial environments across the UK.

For best results, install Saniclad BioMax™ antimicrobial wall cladding onto a clean, dry, level and structurally sound substrate such as plasterboard, plywood, or securely fixed existing finishes. Allow sheets to acclimatise before fitting, then cut using suitable PVC tools (fine-toothed saw or jigsaw) and plan for a small expansion gap. Apply a suitable cladding adhesive in consistent beads to achieve strong contact, press the sheet into place and use a roller to remove air pockets for a flat finish. Because Saniclad BioMax™ is used in hygiene-sensitive environments, finishing is just as important as fixing: use compatible PVC trims at joins and edges, then seal with colour-matched, food-safe silicone to prevent moisture ingress and support wash-down hygiene. Choose 2.44m or 3.05m sheets to reduce joints where possible for a cleaner, lower-maintenance installation.

If your environment demands extra hygiene reassurance, Saniclad BioMax™ antimicrobial wall cladding is a strong upgrade from standard hygienic PVC wall sheets. Standard panels provide a wipe-clean, moisture-resistant wall lining, but Saniclad BioMax™ adds antimicrobial surface technology designed to help inhibit bacterial growth on the panel surface — a valuable advantage in healthcare, laboratories, education, food preparation and other hygiene-critical spaces. The range is supplied in 2.0mm thickness for dependable rigidity and durability, with 2.44m x 1.22m and 3.05m x 1.22m sheets available to help reduce joins and improve finish quality. Panels are food-safe certified and tested to EN 13501-1 fire rating standards, supporting specification-led requirements. From a practical buying perspective, Saniclad BioMax™ helps deliver a professional, compliant finish that’s easier to maintain and better suited to demanding commercial cleaning routines.
