Two types of panels

Solid phenol plastic laminate
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.

Laminated particle board  >
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 partition components are made of ¾ inch (19 mm) solid phenol plastic laminate. Ideally suited when hose-down cleaning is used, for showers or other wet areas.

   

Option B

Pilasters and doors are made of ¾-inch (19 mm) solid phenol plastic laminate while panels are manufactured of laminated particle board and edged with solid plastic laminate.

   

Option C

Pilasters are made of ¾-inch (19 mm) solid phenol plastic laminate while particle board is used for the doors and panels, which are edged with solid laminated plastic.

NOTE: Panels in all options come in a wide variety of colors, patterns and finishes. Waterproof, scratch- and graffiti-resistant, they are easy to assemble and maintain. Our standard partitions meet NFPA, class B and UBC class II fire standards. Fire-resistant partitions can be special ordered.

Advantage + 

The “Privacy Protector”: for maximum discretion

DECOLAM is proud to introduce a new and improved version of its partition doors for washrooms, bank cubicles, polling booths, fitting rooms, and showers. The new partition features the PRIVACY PROTECTOR—a strip of black polypropylene felt embedded on both sides of the partition door. This innovation completely eliminates any undesirable openings to allow for total privacy.

The Privacy Protector is now available with all DECOLAM washroom partition doors on request. Durable and discreet, it’s a great way to enhance product value.

Once again, DECOLAM leads the way with innovative, quality products designed with the consumer in mind.
