Compared with traditional and new wallboard materials (such as plasterboard, cement pressure board, rock wool board, etc.), PS wall panel shows significant advantages in many aspects by virtue of its unique material and process.The following comparative analysis from the core performance, construction application, comprehensive cost and other key aspects.
Ⅰ. Core Performance: A balance between lightweight and multi-functionality
The core advantage of PS wall panels stems from the porous structure of polystyrene after foaming, which enables them to have multiple practical performances on the basis of being "lightweight".This is most of the traditional materials difficult to balance.
Ⅱ. Construction and Processing: Efficient and convenient, reducing labor costs
The "easy installation" of PS foam wall panel is one of the most prominent advantages in the practical application, especially suitable for tight construction period or second decoration scenes.
Low installation threshold: light weight, no large lifting equipment, 2-3 people can complete the installation;It can be fixed directly with neutral silicone glue or self-tapping screws, without complex keel foundation, and the installation efficiency is more than 30% higher than that of plasterboard.
High processing flexibility: can directly use the utility knife, chainsaw cutting, drilling, grooving without special tools, can quickly adapt to the special size (such as doors, Windows);The surface can be directly painted, wallpaper, PVC film, reduce the construction process.
Strong adaptability: Low requirements for the base layer. It can be directly installed on cement walls, brick walls or old walls without the need for large-scale base layer renovation. It will not increase the main load-bearing capacity of the building and is particularly suitable for scenarios where load-bearing is sensitive, such as the renovation of old houses and loft mezzanines.
Ⅲ. Environmental Protection and Durability: Balancing health and long-term use
Better environmental protection: the production process is free of formaldehyde, benzene and other harmful gas release (polystyrene itself is an inert material), the finished product can be directly used in the room, without ventilation and odor;Stronger durability: anti-aging, anti-insect, no wood "cracking, deformation" problems, no gypsumboard "powder, damp" hidden danger, the normal service life of up to 15-20 years. The surface is smooth and compact, the stain is easy to wipe, and the daily maintenance cost is low (such as kitchen oil can be directly cleaned with wet cloth).
Ⅳ. Comprehensive Cost: A balance between short-term investment and long-term returns
The cost advantage of PS foam wall panels lies in the entire cycle of "materials - construction - post-maintenance", rather than merely the unit price of materials.
Short-term costs: medium thickness (5-10 mm) PS foamed wall panels monovalent slightly higher than the ordinary plasterboard, but less than bamboo fiberboard; Moreover, due to its fast installation and low labor cost, the overall construction cost is over 40% lower than that of bamboo and wood fiberboard.
Long-term cost: The thermal insulation performance can reduce the annual energy consumption cost by 10% to 20%.The waterproof and moisture-proof characteristics reduce the maintenance and replacement costs caused by moisture (such as the cost of drywall damp replacement), and the long-term cost-effective is higher.
Ⅴ. Other Differentiated Advantages
Fire safety: By adding flame retardant, PS foam wallboard can reach B1 level flame retardant standard (in case of fire, not spread).Although not as good as rock wool board (class A non-combustible), but better than ordinary wood, plastic board, to meet the fire prevention requirements of most indoor scenes.
Rich in color and shape: During production, it can be directly combined with PVC film, metal film and other decorative surfaces, covering various styles such as wood grain, stone grain and solid color.Without secondary decoration, it can quickly match modern simplicity, light luxury and other interior design styles.
Summary
In general, the advantages of PS foaming wall panels focus on three aspects: light and convenient, heat preservation and moist-proof, easy to install and durable. It is especially suitable for the following scenarios.
Old house renovation, loft interlayer on the bearing and the construction efficiency requirements of space.
Bathroom, kitchen, basement and other damp environment wall decoration.
Pay attention to heat preservation and energy saving residential, office building interior partition wall and ceiling.
Construction period is tight, need to quickly land decoration projects (such as apartment, hotel bulk decoration).
