Discover how Tedlar® Film transformed the interiors of Shanghai Xinhua Hospital. 

In the city of Shanghai, China, the renowned Xinhua Hospital has taken a significant step forward in healthcare facility design by incorporating Tedlar® film from DuPont Tedlar™ into its interiors. Tedlar® is an ideal solution for maintaining the high standards required in a medical environment due to its excellent cleanability and durability. 

Shanghai Xinhua Hospital, a leading healthcare facility, used Tedlar® in many ways to protect and enhance its interior spaces. The Children’s Healthcare Center and Senior Specialist Clinic both had Tedlar® film installed, which ended up covering over 4,000 square meters.  

Versatility  

Tedlar®’s versatility allowed it to be used across many different interior elements. The hospital’s corridors and lobbies feature wallcovering patterns and textures protected by Tedlar®. Desks, paneling, and other furniture pieces used PVC laminated with a woodgrain-patterned Tedlar® film.  

Durability  

One of the standout benefits of Tedlar® is its resistance to scuffs and stains. In a busy hospital setting where cleanliness is paramount, Tedlar® ensures that the interiors can withstand heavy cleaning routines without losing their fresh appearance. This makes it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas like hospital corridors and lobbies. 

Shanghai Xinhua Hospital’s use of Tedlar® highlights a commitment to quality and innovation in healthcare facility design. By choosing Tedlar®, the Children’s Healthcare Center and Senior Specialist Clinic will be able to handle heavy cleaning and will resist staining, which will help the facility remain a sterile and aesthetically pleasing environment for patients and staff alike.
