The refrigerator panel is an important factor for customers to consider when choosing a refrigerator. In fact, the refrigerator panel is not only about whether it is beautiful in appearance, or how well it matches the decoration at home. In fact, a good panel can not only decorate the refrigerator, but also protect it and extend its service life.
The commonly seen refrigerator panel materials can be basically divided into three types: PCM, PVC, and PVT, commonly known as baking varnish, wire drawing, and fiberglass. The more practical type is the wire drawing panel, which is prone to discoloration, while fiberglass panels are more prone to fingerprints. Better refrigerators use stainless steel plates, while ordinary steel plates with VCM films can make the refrigerator look more beautiful and have a moderate cost.
PCM steel plate is a pre coated steel plate, which is also commonly used. PCM is a color precoated plate with an environmentally friendly paint surface for household appliances, which is relatively inexpensive compared to VCM and is generally used for refrigerator side panels. This type of plate is not suitable for refrigerator panels. Due to the poor flatness and single color effect of the plate compared to VCM, it is mainly used for side panels.
Many refrigerators use VCM panels. In fact, VCM panels are metal clad panels, which are coated with films of PVC and pet on the surface of the metal plate. This allows various designs and colors to be printed on the film, and different textures such as matte and pearlescent can be distinguished. They are color laminated steel plates (this type of steel plate may be stainless steel or galvanized). Due to the variety of film products, very exquisite patterns and patterns can be produced to attract consumers to purchase.
