Restaurants have austerely different conditions in all their different areas, and each one is required to monitor the environment. A poor environment can result in off-tastes, spoilage, and sickness. One must learn everything about controlling excess humidity for a healthy commercial kitchen environment. Restaurant kitchens might be visualized as humid, but this is half-baked truth. The reality is that grease droplets linger in the air, making breathing difficult, and can increase asthma problems. Restaurant wall panels are especially effective at preventing airborne contaminants and ensuring ideal humidity, thereby preventing germs from spreading.
Restaurant PVC Panels Address Poor Humidity Issues
Excessive humidity makes us feel miserable for various reasons beyond comfort: musty smells and sticking doors are two. If you are operating a restaurant, improper humidity control creates issues that can drive away potential customers and damage your business. If you are worried about the spread of contamination, humidity control must be an integral part of your mitigation strategy. One of the major signs of poor humidity control is the occurrence of condensation on glass windows and doors, which doesn’t appear inviting for your customers. High humidity can also result in mold and mildew growth in restaurant kitchens. Adding restaurant wall panels on the kitchen walls can help you take control of humidity problems. They come with a pores-free surface which prevents moisture from infiltrating the panels and breeds fungi, bacteria, germs, and mold growth. Their installation proves helpful and keeps your employee discomfort at bay since the kitchen environment is disease-free.
Maintain Odor-Free Commercial Restaurants
Restaurants produce tremendous amounts of moisture from the breathing of employees, customers, dishwashing, and cooking. The buildup of this moisture can make way for an unhealthy environment. Since it encourages mold growth, it can result in respiratory issues followed by allergic reactions. Besides, it can result in foul odor as well. Unpleasant and musty-smelling kitchens make customers and employees unhappy and can result in negative reviews. Apart from these health concerns, uncontrollable moisture can make your air uncomfortable and heavy, resulting in reduced productivity. The odor-resistant commercial wall coverings work by not allowing moisture to penetrate through them and trigger mold and mildew growth. Its non-porous surface doesn’t let moisture or water droplets settle, resulting in a disease-free and completely hygienic environment.
Light-Reflective Kitchen Panels are Integral for Safe Food Preparation and Serving
If you want your kitchen crew to cook and handle food safely without tripping over or having difficulties, you must focus on keeping the space well-lit. It is necessary to allow natural light to enter the commercial kitchen interior, as it creates a convenient working environment for your employees. More so, proper lighting installments can also prevent food from getting contaminated and other accidents. Wall-mounted and hung light fixtures can accumulate dust, further contributing to food contamination. Adding light-reflective panels, however, can offer a better solution. They deflect the natural light on their surface evenly across the kitchen, making it appear brighter and more professional. The fun part is that you also get to save on your electricity consumption by using these panels.
Clean your Commercial Kitchen Without Damaging the Wall Panels
Stubborn stains are bound to develop in places wherever food is cooked. Food and grease residues must be removed systematically as per guidelines to eliminate the breeding grounds for bacteria and viruses. Cleaning and disinfection of the kitchen begin with washing and working up lathering on the commercial kitchen walls regularly using industry cleaning agents and detergents. Repetitive washing and exposure to water and condensation often result in FRP wall panels cracking, peeling off, discoloring, and eventually deteriorating. To avoid this hassle and the money involved in frequently replacing them, one can replace them with a waterproof wall covering. Made of solid, water-resistant materials, the wall covering materials don’t react despite prolonged moisture and water exposure. Rather they stand the test of time and can outlive all other wall-covering materials like FRP and drywall. Compared to FRP, which lives for 25-30 years, and drywall which lives for 45-50 years, PVC panels can live for 100 years without any callbacks.
Ease-of-Maintenance Benefits the Restaurateurs Big Time
Apart from commercial kitchen cleaning to make them comply with legal regulations, restaurateurs are burdened with various other tasks to keep their business up and running. To ensure profitable, safe, and efficient food preparation, restaurateurs must also look into the kitchen’s lighting. Besides, since the kitchen always means food spillage, grease buildup, moisture formation, and oil stains, installing easy-to-maintain PVC commercial kitchen wall panels becomes necessary. Unlike regular scrubbing that every FRP panels need to stay clean and dirt-free, kitchen wall panels can be maintained easily with occasional wiping. The seamless bright panels are available in white, but they don’t turn yellow even after several years. Besides, their surface doesn’t even attract microorganisms and dirt, making way for a visually attractive kitchen interior.
Avoid Dealing with Stains on Kitchen Walls
Stains can ruin the aesthetics of your restaurant kitchen walls, making them appear unsightly. Adding stain-resistant panels can help you get rid of the problem easily. The panels don’t develop scruff despite being exposed to oil and food spillage. Besides, since they are impact and abuse-resistant, you wouldn’t find any marks on them even if food carts, trolleys, or food-making equipment hit them accidentally.
