It's to go into a bathroom, where the existing painted MDF shirting has
blown from the damp atmosphere - so looking for a suitable alternative.


If it's that damp I'd be looking at why. Unless it is direct water
spillage on it.

Small bathroom with a shower, no extraction fan (on the list!).
MDF has failed after ~5 years from where paint has been
scratched/chipped (3 small kids.... Grrr) and damp has caused it to
swell. Hence looking for harder-wearing alternative.
The window sill is also MDF, and in a bad way, planning to replace that
with composite worktop material or similar.
