Frequently Asked Questions: Color Thru Phenolic Toilet Partitions


Color Thru Phenolic partitions are constructed from multiple layers of kraft paper that have been soaked in phenolic resin. Unlike standard phenolic partitions which feature a black core, Color Thru Phenolic is manufactured so that the color extends consistently throughout the entire thickness of the material.


This material is specifically designed for high-traffic, high-abuse, and vandal-prone applications. It is exceptionally durable and capable of withstanding heavy impacts. Because the color is consistent throughout the core, surface scratches and graffiti damage are much less noticeable and significantly easier to manage than on surface-painted materials. Furthermore, the partitions are highly resistant to graffiti, which can typically be removed without causing any damage to the surface.


Yes. Color Thru Phenolic is inherently water-resistant and easily withstands extreme moisture and humidity. It is highly recommended for wet areas because it maintains its structural integrity and will not warp or delaminate over time.


Color Thru Phenolic features a non-porous surface that actively resists bacterial growth. This makes the partitions incredibly easy to clean and helps maintain a highly sanitary restroom environment.


Yes, they offer excellent fire safety. The material is resistant to fire and exceeds standard fire protection recommendations for smoke production.


Color Thru Phenolic is one of the more premium, expensive materials due to its dense manufacturing process and extreme durability. It is priced higher than powder-coated steel and is generally competitive with stainless steel and solid plastic (HDPE). However, the higher initial investment is strongly justified by the partition’s longevity, low maintenance requirements, and ability to survive in demanding environments. Because the material is quite heavy, it does require robust mounting hardware during installation.
