Modern hotels demand wall protection that balances aesthetics with durability while maintaining a welcoming atmosphere. In high-traffic areas like lobbies and corridors, Marlite’s Sieva™ Large Panel Wall System and Induro™ HPL-faced FRP provide maximum impact resistance while maintaining visual appeal. Guest rooms benefit from Marlite Plank™ wainscoting for elegant protection in entryways, while Symmetrix™ SmartSeam FRP delivers the sophisticated look of ceramic tile in bathrooms without grout maintenance issues.

Public spaces shine with Artizan Max™ featuring branded elements and wayfinding, while the Transforming Wall System creates stunning feature walls that establish brand identity from the moment guests arrive.
Performance spaces demand unique solutions that address both aesthetics and functionality. Our sound-absorbing panels reduce echo while providing visually striking surfaces in lobbies and concession areas. Theater corridors protected by Induro can withstand intense traffic of event crowds while maintaining appearance. Luxury cinema experiences benefit from Plank and Transforming Wall System panels that create sophisticated environments that elevate the movie-going experience. For nightclubs and entertainment bars, our Volta™ Dimensional Flex Sheets with metallic and reflective options create dynamic, photogenic environments without sacrificing durability.
These 24/7 operations require eye-catching aesthetics combined with exceptional durability. Artizan Max custom panels integrate branding and wayfinding elements seamlessly into wall protection, while the dimensional capabilities of Volta and Transforming Wall systems create thematic elements that define different gaming zones. The variety of finishes available allows for creating immersive environments that encourage extended guest stays while maintaining pristine appearances despite continuous use.
Our digital printing capabilities transform standard wall protection into immersive themed environments, whether recreating historical settings for museums or fantasy worlds for attractions. Custom capabilities enable perfect color matching and logo reproduction on durable wall surfaces throughout sports facilities. In luxury suites and premium areas, Sieva and Transforming Wall Systems create sophisticated atmospheres that elevate the spectator experience, while back-of-house and concession areas benefit from easy-to-clean standard FRP and Symmetrix solutions.
These tranquil environments benefit from materials that promote both serenity and practicality. The moisture-resistant properties of Marlite’s FRP-based products make them ideal for pool surrounds, while our decorative options create calming atmospheres in treatment rooms. Symmetrix panels provide an elegant solution for changing areas, mimicking the look of spa-quality tile while eliminating concerns about mold and mildew in grout lines.
Versatility meets durability in these multi-functional areas. Marlite wall panels provide sophisticated aesthetics that can adapt to different events while withstanding constant rearrangement of furniture and equipment. Sieva large-panel wall systems provide elegant backdrops for corporate functions, while Artizan Max offers unlimited design potential for branded experiences—from subtle backdrops to dramatic feature walls that enhance any gathering.
Maritime environments present unique challenges that Marlite’s lightweight, fire-rated wall panels address effectively. Our material solutions withstand vibration, moisture, and constant use typical of cruise operations while contributing to sophisticated aesthetics passengers expect. From elegant dining venues to durable corridor protection, our interior design materials meet maritime regulations while enabling distinctive design themes across different ship areas.
Modern hospitality construction often requires prefabricated components for efficiency. Marlite’s ultra-thin FRP solutions are ideal for modular environments, reducing overall module weight while withstanding transportation and assembly stresses. Symmetrix panels deliver a sophisticated ceramic tile look at just 3/32″ thickness—perfect for manufactured bathroom units. For branded elements, Artizan Max custom panels allow modular manufacturers to incorporate consistent design elements across all units while maintaining lightweight, durable characteristics essential for transport.
Hospitality and entertainment venues rely on our wall protection systems' superior impact and stain resistance. All surfaces withstand constant foot traffic, luggage carts, and other daily wear while maintaining their appearance. Our products support brand consistency through custom printing capabilities that deliver precise color matching and logo reproduction, allowing facilities to create distinctive branded environments that withstand real-world use.
Facility managers appreciate our systems' straightforward maintenance requirements and efficient installation processes. Most solutions can be installed over existing surfaces, minimizing demolition and operational disruption. Unlike traditional tile work, all Marlite FRP products can be installed in hours rather than the days, making it ideal for renovations where downtime means lost revenue. Comprehensive trim options ensure a sealed, professional appearance, while our extensive network of experienced installers provides expert support throughout the project.
Our experienced sales and support teams work alongside architects, designers, and facility managers to understand each project's unique requirements. We provide detailed product information and specifications to support your decision-making process, while our extensive selection of finishes complements your design vision for brand integration, wayfinding, and creating memorable guest experiences. Most importantly, we understand hospitality budgets and collaborate with your team to identify solutions that balance performance requirements with project goals.
Seamlessly incorporate modern tech into designed spaces. Marlite's custom fabrication capabilities include cutouts and preparations for screens, controls, and other integrated technologies.
