What Am-Clad does

Am-Clad Worldwide is a Bradford, UK-based manufacturer and supplier of premium hygienic PVC wall cladding systems for hygiene-critical commercial and institutional environments. The company's product range centres on 2.5 mm PVC wall cladding sheets (in white, pastels and bold colours), the AM-Guard antimicrobial textured wall and door protection system (claimed to be 20 times more scratch-resistant than standard PVC and to actively kill bacteria), the AM-Clad Vision large-format graphics printing system for bespoke imagery sealed with antimicrobial coating, and ancillary products including PVC ceiling planks and aluminium chequerplate panels. Technical differentiators include on-site thermoforming for non-standard corner geometries, hot-welded seamless joints, and a 30-year warranty on correctly installed systems.

The company sells through a specification-led direct sales motion targeting architects, specifiers, principal contractors and certified installation teams, supported by a dedicated technical support function. Distribution is augmented by an international network of distributors in India, USA, Bahrain, Australia, Canada and Dubai, with the UK & Ireland business handled from the Bradford head office. Customers span fast food franchises, beverage and snack manufacturers, retailers, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare providers (including NHS hospitals), e-commerce logistics operators, and education, leisure, veterinary and animal-care facilities. Notable named customers include McDonald's, Coca-Cola, M&S, NHS, Nestle, KFC, Jollibee, Starbucks, GSK, Amazon UK, Walkers, Burger King and Britvic, with documented installations ranging from 120 sqm (Sydney commercial kitchen) to 4,000 sqm (Coca-Cola London bottling plant).
