To help better understand the scope of popularity for the wall claddings in modern architecture, read along with this article till the end!

What is Wall Cladding?

Wall cladding is better known as the protection system that’s available for both internal as well as external building walls. Any climatic or weather elements or specific irritants won’t be able to cause any negative effect on your building walls when it is protected with high-quality wall claddings, such as Merino’s Armour External and Shaurya Internal Wall Cladding

Coming to the process, wall cladding is executed by layering one material over the other by creating a skin layer all over the walls. Upon using Merino’s quality cladding panels, you will be able to prevent the internal wall works and exterior surface finish from being damaged due to weather hazards. 

Different Types of Wall Cladding

At Merino Laminates, we offer two types of wall cladding, Armour and Shaurya, which are for external and internal applications, respectively. Both serve their purposes, the highlights of which include:

Armour External Wall Cladding

Merino offers you the premium exterior wall cladding collection Armour, which has been designed ideally for dealing with critical climatic conditions. Apart from ensuring high-end protection, you are also provided with luxurious designs and subtle variations for adding style to your modern building structure and keeping the appeal protected. 

You get two categories of external wall cladding to choose from, which include Merino’s Armour Film or Armour Superclad. The Film range offers you a UV resistant layer, and the panels are made under high temperatures and pressures, deriving a highly dense EWC panel ideal for your exteriors. 

On the other hand, the Armour Superclad is the epitome of toughness and luxury appeal. Preferring this would let you avail the endurable exteriors from the core, making the walls capable of bearing even the most erratic weather adversities. 

Shaurya Internal Wall Cladding

Shaurya is the internal wall cladding range by Merino, which is addressed as a wall-protection system made up of high-pressure compact laminates. These products are meant to enhance the appeal and durability of the internal walls of your modern building from several different types of damage.

Apart from wall protection and improving house aesthetics, these claddings can also be used for arranging the cables, matching walls with furniture, and enabling scope for future changes. 

Importance of Wall Cladding in Modern Building Structures

Some of the reasons why both external as well as internal wall claddings are essential for modern building structures are:

  • Protection Against All Weathers
