Sanitary partitions
Advantage + Privacy Protector
Material
Designed for use in commercial, industrial and institutional facilities, Decolam sanitary partitions are ideally suited to high-humidity environments such as swimming pools or high-vandalism areas such as prisons, schools or high-traffic public areas.
Two types of panels

Made of multiple layers of phenol-resin coated kraft paper. Sheets are assembled using a special process that results in a highly resistant material. Pressed together under high pressure and intense heat, the layers fuse to form a solid, homogenous, water-tight material that is vandal, oil, mildew and cigarette proof.

A layer of laminated plastic is hermetically sealed to the particle board. The laminate is made of layers of specially treated Kraft paper covered with several coats of phenol resin that bond under high pressure and intense heat. The laminate is then sealed to a 45 lb per cubic foot (720 kg/m3) density particle board. Two-inch (50 mm) wide solid laminate edges prevent moisture penetration and provide added strength for installing hardware and accessories.
Options
Three options are available to suit all needs and budgets.

Option A -All Solid Phenolic Components
All partition components are made of ¾ inch (19 mm) solid phenolic plastic laminate. Ideally suited when hose-down cleaning is used, for showers or other wet areas.
