Product Details

Our industry-respected Puracore Wall Panels are fully flush, FM-approved and made using an aluminium honeycomb core, which provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, perfect for a cleanroom project. The core is non-shedding, meaning it won’t shed any particles or contaminants that could affect your cleanroom, which is particularly important in the pharmaceutical sector. Our panels can be produced with a range of different finishes, including PVC Food Safe Laminate, PET and Polyester, and many more, depending on your project’s requirements. 

Several of the world’s biggest companies such as Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and Rolls-Royce all use our wall panels for their specialist cleanroom operations, allowing them to produce the best results.
