Waterproof Wall Panels for a Sustainable & Cost Effective Future
Delivering high-quality, sustainable social housing while adhering to tight budgets can feel like a constant tightrope walk. Traditional bathroom wall solutions, particularly tiles, often add complexity and expense to the equation. Here’s where waterproof wall panels cam help. Offering a future-proof solution for social housing. These innovative panels deliver a multitude of benefits, promoting both efficiency and affordability.
Why Choose Wall Panels for Social Housing?
The Fibo Wall Panel System is a cutting-edge, waterproof wall cladding solution designed for demanding applications in wet and humid conditions. It uses a modular installation technique that begins with the perfect alignment of aluminium or PVC profiles that constitute the structural structure, assuring stability and load distribution. The high-pressure laminate (HPL) panels are then installed using a tongue-and-groove interlocking mechanism to ensure smooth integration and durability. All joints are sealed using Fibo Seal, a unique polymer-based sealer developed for superior moisture resistance and long-term adhesion. Complementary accessories such as corner profiles, edge trims, and end caps allow for personalisation, ensure precise details, and simplify installation, making the Fibo Wall Panel System a technically superior alternative to traditional tiling methods.
Durability for Long-Term Savings: Crafted from high-grade materials such as Birch Plywood, our waterproof wall panels are highly resistant to scratches, dents, and everyday wear and tear. This offers a low-maintenance solution, eliminating the need for frequent replacements and associated costs that can plague social housing projects with traditional tiles.
Certified Antibacterial Protection: Our wall panels boast certified antibacterial properties, actively inhibiting the growth of bacteria and mould. This promotes a clean and healthy living environment for tenants in social housing, particularly those with health concerns or weakened immune systems.
Faster Installation: Unlike tiles, which require meticulous application and drying time for grout and adhesives, bathroom wall panels boast an aqua-lock system. This allows for quick and easy installation (5x after than tiles), significantly reducing on-site labour costs and project completion times.
No Specialist Required: Our panels are designed for hassle-free installation. There’s no need for specialised tilers, saving you time and money on hiring additional crews.

Addressing the Challenges of Traditional Tiles in Social Housing
While tiles have been a mainstay in bathroom wall solutions, they present several challenges in the context of social housing:
Time-Consuming Installation: The intricate application process and drying times for tiles significantly slow down the construction process, impacting project timelines.
Increased Labour Costs: The cost of skilled labourers for tiling inflates project budgets in comparison to quick and easy installation of panelling
Maintenance Concerns: Grout lines and porous from tiling can be susceptible to discolouration and mould growth. As well as tiles being susceptible to breakage, these both lead to additional maintenance and potential repairs, increasing ongoing costs for social housing providers.
