 PanelMax saves up to 65% in material costs and up to 87% in time.

PANELMAX EXPANDS CREATIVITY AND DESIGN
Decorative Details

1

With PanelMax, decorative details, such as ceiling moldings, can be fabricated using just drywall. Fabricated details can be installed as components, are much lighter weight that traditional material and require much less finishing.

Details

2

Drywall can be used to create details like wainscoting coating. Drywall can be routed and folded together to form perfect edges and require very little finishing.

Ceiling Details

3

Ceiling details, like stepped soffits, are relatively easy to create with PanelMax and require very little finishing on inside and outside corners.

Curves

4

Recessed box details are easy to fabricate with PanelMax and require little finishing. Fireboxes and other recessed boxes typically require quite a bit of taping and finishing. Inside corners are perfect and straight every time.
