Protective Wall Padding
All wall padding is not created equal! There is a misperception in the market place that “wall padding is wall padding”. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Yes, the 7/16" OSB backing and fabric covering may be similar in a lot of respects. But, what defines the protective qualities of the padding is it’s ability to absorb and dispurse shock. After all, isn’t the purpose of putting wall padding in place to provide maximum protection for your student body? At one time, many years ago, only polyurethane foams were available for this purpose, and they had far less shock absorbency and limited lifespan than the sophisticated polyethylene foams available now. These new foams are used in the dashboards of automobiles, as they are renowned for the ability to protect passengers during impact, and they are the types of foams we use. That’s why our wall panels are superior to those of many of our competitors. Make sure you always receive a sample of the wall padding you are considering before you award a contract to any company, and be certain it meets the very strigent specifications of RESILITE, unquestionably the leader in this industry.
We deliver and install several types of wall padding. Here is a brief description of each of these. Please contact us after you’ve reviewed these, and we can discuss which one would most serve your specific needs. We provide free on site inspections and quotes for any of the schools and athletic facilities in our area:
Types of Wall Padding
Slot-Back System - only available from RESILITE. This unique method of installing protective wall panels allow’s them to easily be removed for repair if they’re ever damaged or vandalized. Many companies either mount firing strips on the wall, and attach the wall panels to them, or simply nail the wall panels directly into the wall. They also may use Liquid Nail, a powerful adhesive, to secure them. This creates inherent difficulties as the panels may be further damaged during the removal process. Our panels are easy to recover and remount, and provide many years of trouble free service. That’s why they’re such a great value.
