Overview
Discreet corner protection for high-traffic interiors
Corners are one of the first areas to show damage in busy environments. Impacts from trolleys, beds, equipment, and daily foot traffic lead to chipped finishes, cracked plaster, and ongoing repair costs.
Gradus Clear PVC-u Corner Guards protect vulnerable corners without changing the look of the space. They reduce impact damage, support hygiene standards, and extend the life of wall finishes—while remaining virtually invisible once installed.

A: They protect internal wall corners from knocks, scrapes, and everyday impact while preserving the original wall finish and appearance.

Q: Are clear PVC-u corner guards easy to clean?
A: Yes. The smooth surface is easy to wipe clean and supports routine cleaning and maintenance regimes.
