At the moment, any business project that is properly organized brings its owner a stable and fairly impressive income. This is especially true for the production of building and finishing materials. The most popular at the moment is the production of lining.
Varieties of lining
Lining as a finishing material has been used for many years. It is made from:
- a tree;
- plastic:
- PVC
- metal;
- sand and cement.
Each species has its own characteristics and sizes. Any of them has a wide range of colors and easy installation on surfaces of various quality.
Where can lining be used
For this material, there are certain limitations in use. For example, cladding made of PVC or plastic, metal or sand with cement are cladding facades of buildings. Wooden lining is designed more for interior work, but it is also used in outdoor decoration.
Tip. Such material as a wooden lining is able to react to changes in climatic conditions, it absorbs moisture well and because of this, after installation is complete, the surface of the lining is varnished or painted. It all depends on the designer's idea.
How to install any kind of lining
Any lining is mounted on a special frame. Manufacturers at the end of the panels make special locks or holes. Due to this, the material is fixed.
The frame of the crate itself is made of wooden boards, and in this process, additional insulation of the structure is performed.
Methods of manufacturing lining
As already mentioned above, the lining can be of various types, and the choice of raw materials for its production depends on this. Lining production happens:
- factory;
- at home.
But the latter method is not suitable for all types of material.
Production of plastic or PVC lining
Let us consider in more detail the production of PVC lining. What is PVC? This is a polyvinyl chloride material, which has excellent properties and technical characteristics.
It is moisture resistant and practical, durable and fire resistant. In addition, the material is frost resistant and does not respond to temperature changes.
All these properties allow the free use of material in exterior finishing work.
According to its parameters, PVC lining can be:
- single-section, which is represented by one strip of material;
- three-section, which has three bands interconnected.
For any species, the length is 3 m, and the width is from 10 to 24 cm.
The surface of the material may be matte or glossy. It all depends on what raw materials are used.
The production of plastic lining is carried out using:
- Pulling device.
- Extruder
- A calibrator that is not used on all lines.
- Equipment for cutting material.
- Acceptance backgrounds.
The technological process is regulated by state acts and state standards. Each type of plastic lining has its own regulatory document.
What is needed to organize the production of PVC lining
The business of lining production will require a business plan. It indicates all the necessary costs for equipment and other, as well as calculates deferred income.
Important. Before the production of this material, it is necessary to assess the market of finishing materials. This will help to correctly determine the cost of lining and reduce the cost of its production.
After drawing up a business plan, you need to find a room. It should correspond to production volumes and enable proper positioning of all equipment.
Then the purchase of equipment and its arrangement. In parallel, raw materials are purchased for a trial batch of material. Next, the production process starts. A trial batch may be sold if manufactured to standards.
You must try to immediately find a market for your products. This will make it possible to sell the material and immediately make a profit for it. If the market is not found, then you need to take care of the storage room for the lining. It must also comply with the storage standards for these products.
What is included in the cost of production
Lining production involves the calculation of the expenditure and revenue of the production process.
An approximate calculation of the revenue and expenditure budget.

The production of wooden lining and any other pre-calculated. Such a calculation serves as the basis for providing deferred income and for their qualitative and quantitative assessment.
Wooden lining and its production
Wooden lining differs from PVC in that it is made of wood of any breed. It also has similar dimensions and parameters. In its technical characteristics, it is the same as plain wood.
For the production of wood lining you will need:
- The machine for the production of lining, the price of which is 1000-15000 US dollars. It all depends on the scale of the production process and the required product quality.
- Chamber for drying wood.
- Chamber for painting the surface of the finished product.
- Chamber for wood processing with various antiseptic agents.
Tip. To ensure that the lining production is of high quality, the equipment can be not only new, but also used. Initially, it must be checked for operability and assessed for wear.
In the manufacture of wood lining, only well-prepared wood is used. It goes through a long drying process in a natural way. In some cases, manufacturers try to reduce the time for such preparation and place the raw materials in a special chamber. In a fairly short time, the tree dries out, but is characterized by the fact that various cracks form inside the structure, which over time will affect the appearance of the finish.
You can make a wooden lining yourself. The production of lining at home involves the use of grinding and sawing machines, emery, spray booths and dryers. Canopies can be used as the last two rooms.
Important. The drying process of raw materials in such conditions will take about 3-4 months and this should be taken into account in calculating deferred income.
Typically, this type of manufacturing process pays off within 6 months. But this is subject to high-quality sales of products and large volumes of production. A small family business will bear fruit after 3 months.
General recommendations
Before starting your business for the production of lining, you need to study the market of competitors. It is quite large in some regions, and professionals recommend doing another type of activity. Those who nevertheless decided to risk organizing their business project in the face of enormous competition are required to calculate costs, establish competitive prices, and determine the sales market not only within the region, but throughout the country. But, this is possible over time, when the company begins to produce large volumes.
