FAQs
Is this product suitable for use in food preparation areas?
Yes, the antimicrobial properties and the sealed nature of the two-part design make it ideal for commercial food prep environments.
Can I cut the 3-meter bar to a custom size?
Yes, the PVC material is easily cut using a standard fine-toothed hacksaw or a power saw with a PVC-appropriate blade.
What is the primary benefit of a two-part bar over a one-part bar?
A two-part bar allows for a much easier installation as you do not have to slide the entire cladding panel down the length of the bar; you place the panel into the base and snap the cover over it.
Does this require any adhesives for installation?
It is primarily fixed to the wall via mechanical fasteners through the base section, but you may choose to use an adhesive bead for additional wall bonding.
What is the material composition of this bar?
It is made from a high-impact, co-extruded PVC designed to provide both durability and hygienic protection.
Troubleshooting
Cover strip will not snap into place
Check that the base section is mounted flat; any bowing in the base will prevent the cover from locking correctly.
Cladding sheet feels loose inside the channel
Verify that your cladding sheet thickness is consistent with the profile dimensions. Use a bead of sanitary sealant if extra stability is required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Ensure the wall surface is flat, clean, and dry before fixing the base section.
Installation: Screw the base section into the wall, ensuring it is perfectly plumb. Use a spirit level to prevent bowing.
Insertion: Slide the cladding panels into the channels on either side of the base. Ensure there is a small expansion gap allowed by the manufacturer.
Finishing: Align the cover strip with the base and snap it firmly into position until a click is heard.
Compatibility: Compatible with most standard PVC hygiene cladding sheets. Confirm panel thickness before installation.
Care: Clean with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the antimicrobial surface.
