How will our lives be after COVID-19? This storm will pass, leaving us with increased vigilance for our health. The Health care industry, in particular, continues to face major challenges and hygiene standards in the future will become even more stringent.

Evolving stringent sanitation standards and fire safety regulations for building materials drive designers and maintenance managers in hospitals as well as public facilities to look for new ways to enhance public safety. SABIC is helping customers to meet these challenges by introducing a new LEXAN™ CLINIWALL™ sheet solution for cleanroom surfaces and interior wall cladding applications in public facilities and hospitals.

As a leading supplier of SABIC Polycarbonates, we offer SABIC’s LEXAN™ CLINIWALL™ sheet, which helps you to achieve the highest hygiene standards in any medical or health facility. These specialty sheets in our assortment are suitable for wall covering applications, intended for the healthcare sector.

This opaque, low-gloss PC/ABS blend solid sheet portfolio delivers high strength and stain resistance to blood, iodine, rubber gasket marks and other common stains in hospitals and public facilities. It also offers excellent chemical resistance to most of the cleaning agents including disinfectant Isopropanol (rubbing alcohol), helping save significant maintenance costs.
