TILE FRP (TILE LIKE FINISH)

Appearance and performance in FRP wall panels that outperform ceramic tile

Symmetrix Scored FRP clearly replaces ceramic tile walls because it looks better, wears better and lasts longer. It also installs faster and is easier to clean and maintain – making it more economical, by far.

The coated groove advantage in high wear wall systems

Symmetrix’s precision scored grooves provide a clean, uniform appearance. And coated with Marlite’s Sani-Coat sealer, the grooves don’t deteriorate like tile grout lines. Sani-Coat protects the entire surface against moisture, scratching, staining, mold and mildew. Plus the tough FRP substrate provides outstanding impact resistance – won’t crack. Panels can be simply wiped clean.


Tests follow ASTM D3273-94 Standard Test Method for resistance to growth of mold.
Reported under ASTM D3274-95.

INSTALLATION

Symmetrix installs easily and in a fraction of the installation time of ceramic tile. Panels can be cut with shears. Simply apply Marlite Brand Adhesive to the back of Marlite FRP panels and apply them to the subwall. Symmetrix features scored grout lines, offering the same look as ceramic tile without the need for messy grout/sealer application.

 

Place a 6 penny spacing nail between panels.

  

Remove nail and protect panel face with tape. Wait one hour.

  

Place a bead of Marlite Brand White Silicone Sealant in the gap.

Using your finger, place a slight indentation in the gap.

  

Remove the tape to reveal a grooved and matched seam joint.
