CareHomeDeskCareHomeDeskRigid extruded PVCu corner protection angles (75x75mm, 65x65mm, 50x50mm, 38x38mm and 25x25mm) and edge trims, 90 or 135 degree options, standard 1.25m or 2.5m lengths for angles and 3.5m for trims, for protecting exposed corners on corridor and room walls from impact damage.
External corners along circulation routes take the most concentrated impact damage in a care home, since a trolley, wheelchair footplate or bed corner striking a bare plastered corner chips and cracks the wall edge repeatedly at the same point. A corner protector spreads and absorbs that impact along a rigid, easily wiped-clean profile instead of the bare wall edge, and is a low-cost fix compared with repeated corner plastering and redecoration.
