uPVC Ceiling Panel
Waterproof, Termite-Proof, Fire-Retardant Ceiling System — 300mm Wide — 5 Colors — 25–30 Year Maintenance-Free Service Life
Our uPVC Ceiling Panels give any space a bright, smooth, non-organic surface that is permanently resistant to moisture, mold, termites, ammonia, bleach, and fire. Once installed, they require nothing more than an occasional wipe-down for the next 25–30 years.
A tongue-and-groove interlocking system allows a two-person crew to install 40–60 m² per day with no special tools. Available in 5 colors — including realistic wood-grain finishes for a premium interior look.
Why uPVC Outperforms Every Conventional Ceiling
100% Waterproof
Impervious to moisture, humidity, and direct water. Zero warping, swelling, bubbling, or delamination — even after roof leaks or high-pressure wash-down.
Termite & Pest Proof
Zero cellulose. Completely indigestible to termites, carpenter ants, rats, and wood-boring beetles that routinely destroy plywood and fiber cement ceilings.
Fire-Retardant (Class B/B2)
Self-extinguishing when flame is removed. ISO 11925-2 compliant. Does not propagate fire. Critical for high-fire-risk environments like poultry farms and commercial kitchens.
Hygienic Smooth Surface
Non-porous. Bacteria and mold spores cannot embed. Clean with water and mild detergent. Meets hygiene requirements for food processing and pharmaceutical facilities.
Sound & Thermal Insulation
Hollow-core profile provides measurable sound attenuation between floors and reduces thermal transfer, lowering air-conditioning energy consumption.
5 Permanent Colors
Natural White, Antique White, Light Walnut, Brown Mahogany, White Oak. Color is co-extruded throughout — will never chip, peel, or fade in Philippine climate conditions.

Why uPVC Works in Philippine Agricultural Buildings
Poultry and hog farming facilities in the Philippines present the harshest possible ceiling conditions: sustained ammonia concentrations of 50–100ppm from animal waste, near-100% relative humidity, weekly bleach or quaternary ammonium disinfectant wash-downs, and continuous heat. Every conventional ceiling material fails within 3–7 years in these conditions. uPVC is completely inert to ammonia at any practical concentration, impervious to bleach and acidic disinfectants, and requires no repainting, patching, or replacement for 25–30 years.
30-Year Lifecycle Cost Comparison
| Ceiling Type | Initial Cost | Maintenance (per 5 yrs) | Replacements in 30 yrs | 30-Year Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| uPVC Panel (5Dragon) | Moderate | Minimal (clean only) | None | Lowest |
| Gypsum Board | Low | High (repaint, patch) | 1–2 replacements | High |
| Painted Plywood | Low | Very High (rot, damage) | 2–3 replacements | Very High |
| Fiber Cement | Moderate | Medium (repaint, cracks) | Partial replacements | Medium-High |
