Joints and Corners
Internal corners, external corners, sheet joints and changes of material require a coordinated detailing strategy.
Services and Penetrations

Frequently Asked Questions
Commercial Washroom Wall Cladding FAQ
What is commercial washroom wall cladding?
Commercial washroom wall cladding is a sheet-based wall finish used in WCs, washrooms, changing facilities, shower areas and other demanding interiors where cleanability, durability, moisture management and appearance need to be considered together.
Which wall cladding system is best for a commercial washroom?
The right system depends on the room, substrate, water exposure, cleaning regime, design intent, jointing requirements and project budget. Impact Group can review White, coloured Satins, Gloss, CALYX and Altro Whiterock routes against the project requirements.
Can hygienic wall cladding be installed over existing tiles?
It can be possible on suitable projects, but the existing tiled surface should be assessed for bond, cleanliness, contamination, flatness, moisture and overall suitability before a fixing method is confirmed.
Can hygienic wall cladding be used in shower areas?
Suitable systems can be considered for shower and wet-use areas subject to the substrate, waterproofing strategy, joints, interfaces, service penetrations and manufacturer or project-specific installation requirements.
What is the difference between CALYX and ceramic tiles?
IMPACTPRO CALYX is a large-format decorative PVC-U wall-cladding system. Its tile-effect appearance is produced using digital print and precision CNC engraving rather than individual ceramic tiles and conventional porous grout lines.

Yes. Impact Group provides wall-cladding supply, project-specific technical support, site survey and professional installation routes for commercial projects.
