3M DI-NOC Architectural Finishes

A Low-Cost, Value Engineered, High-Impact Alternative to Building Renovation

Office space, lobbies, retail stores, and other commercial spaces need updating from time to time to make them more attractive to existing and prospective tenants. However, traditional renovations are expensive to building owners and disruptive to tenants. That’s why 3M Company introduced its DI-NOC™ Architectural Finishes. You can refresh existing surfaces (doors, ceilings, walls, furniture, etc) at a fraction of the cost of replacement and without the associated disruption.

3M DI-NOC Architectural Finishes have a durable surface that is easy to clean, maintain, and repair. Similar to stainless steel and other hard, non-porous surfaces, DI-NOC can be cleaned with typical commercial grade cleaners and disinfectants known, according to their product labels, to destroy or suppress the growth of harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi, without deterioration of the surface finish. For a full list of tested and compatible cleaners and disinfectants, including 3M Cleaners and Disinfectants, please reference the 3M DI-NOC Architectural Finishes Technical Data Sheet. DI-NOC is recommended for use on doors, walls, columns, cabinets, front desks, and any areas where design, durable function, and cleanability are needed.

3M DI-NOC is not contact paper. It is more versatile, durable, and realistic. Many DI-NOC patterns are textured which adds to their realism.
