Chinese Coy, N’Delta Interiors Unveil New Wall and Ceiling Cladding with PVC Board in Warri

A Nigerian-Chinese company, Hundred Star Plastic Industries Limited, in collaboration with Niger Delta Interiors have embarked on a one-day workshop to promote the adoption of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) wall panels as a cost-effective and durable interior design solution in Warri metropolis, Delta State.

The workshop held at Cletano Hotel and Suite, Osubi, near Warri, was facilitated by its partners, Niger Delta Interiors attracted distributors, hoteliers, builders, contractors, interior designers, and real estate professionals as well as other entrepreneurs as the seminar highlighted the advantages of PVC wall panels over traditional wall finishing options such as paint, plaster, and POP.

In series of presentations and live demonstrations, representatives from the two firms showcased the practical benefits of PVC wall panels, which include affordability, resistance to water and fire, ease of maintenance, and long-term cost savings.

Speaking at the sensitization workshop, representatives of Hundred Star Plastics Industries Ltd—a major producer of PVC panels in Nigeria, Chen Lilly, and Yue Liu, said that they choose to partner with Niger Delta Interiors to ensure that the new products get to the people of the region.

They emphasized the company’s commitment to skill development and empowerment, saying that the goal is to enable local distributors not just to sell the panels, but also to benefit from installation services.

“The business opportunity is not just in buying and selling, but also in the value-added service of installation,” she noted.

“Every month, we invest over five million naira to bring our Chinese master trainers to Nigeria to train our people. At this point, it’s not about making money; it’s about building capacity. We have so many projects on hand but not enough trained installers. That is why we are focusing on training our distributors and local artisans. We believe Nigerians can make this innovation succeed,” Lilly said.

“We like to support you to do business and grow hence we are here to sensitise you on the important of this PVC Board products” Lilly said.

“We are not the kind of company that would do business for two years and fold up. We wish we can do business with you together for a long time. We have different companies in Nigeria that have been operating for close to 20 years but this one is about four years here.

Participants also engaged in interactive Q&A sessions and hands-on training aimed at increasing local capacity for installation.

Solomon Igbiaye, Eqs., a representative of Niger Delta Interiors, reiterated the company’s regional mission: “We are the major distributors of this PVC wall panel product across the Niger Delta—from Edo State to Cross River.

“This innovation has long-term value. While it might seem expensive to install at first, you’ll save more over time by eliminating the recurring costs of painting and maintenance.”

One of the seminar facilitators, Sammy, explained that the new generation of PVC panels being introduced offers fire resistance and greater aesthetic appeal.

“We are moving beyond the regular PVC most people know. This product brings a modern look you typically only see outside Nigeria, while also reducing environmental hazards,” he said.

Participants expressed optimism about the innovation. Engineer Joe Ellis described it as a game-changer, while Lucky Okiemute appreciated the cost-saving potential for interior design. Christopher Ugu added, “POP is becoming less durable; this PVC option is more practical for today’s needs.”

The seminar emphasized a broader vision of promoting locally driven innovation in the building materials sector, with emphasis on sustainable, modern, and efficient practices tailored to the needs of the Niger Delta region.

Niger Delta Interiors and Hundred Star Plastics Industries Ltd pledged to continue empowering local talent through training, awareness campaigns, and strategic partnerships, as part of their joint effort to modernize the region’s construction landscape.
