In this article, we’ll explore what PS wall panels are, how much they typically cost, how they compare to other materials like FRP, and answer some common buyer questions.
At ZALA Decoration, we offer factory-direct supply of PS wall panels – all customizable and ready for export.
What is a PS Wall Panels?
PS wall panels are made from polystyrene, a lightweight thermoplastic that’s durable, water-resistant, and suitable for decorative indoor use. These panels are extruded into various geometric shapes and can mimic natural textures like wood grain, stone, or marble. They’re especially popular in apartment renovations, commercial interiors, and fast installation projects.
Because PS is naturally moisture-proof and termite-resistant, it’s often favored in humid or tropical markets where wood-based panels may fail over time.
Tip for importers: Unlike traditional MDF or PVC wall panels, PS panels ship lighter, reducing overall freight cost per container.
How Much Does It Cost to Do Wall Panels?
The cost of wall paneling depends on material, finish, and installation method. For PS wall panels, factory pricing typically ranges from USD $3.0–$6.50 per square meter（Contact us for a better price）, depending on the finish and order volume.
Additional costs for importers may include:
1 , Freight and customs fees
2 , Packaging customization
3 , Local taxes or duties
4 , Installation accessories (glue, nails, trims)

How to Install PS Wall Panels Efficiently for Project-Scale Use
While PS wall panels are DIY-friendly, large-scale installations—such as hotel corridors, office spaces, or apartment lobbies—benefit from a few professional techniques:
Surface Preparation: Ensure the base wall is dry, flat, and dust-free. For painted walls, lightly sand to improve adhesion.
Use the Right Adhesive: High-tack construction glue or silicone adhesive is recommended. In humid areas, choose a waterproof formula.
Expansion Gaps: Leave a small expansion gap (1–2 mm) between panels to allow for temperature changes, especially in larger areas.
Trims and Corners: Use matching end trims and corner profiles to create a clean finish and hide cut edges.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Although PS is stable indoors, avoid installing near strong direct sunlight without UV film, to prevent minor warping over time.
🛠️ Tip: For bulk projects, request pre-cut lengths to speed up installation and reduce onsite waste.
