                                                                    Panels must be installed by qualified tradesmen and handled with care. Prior to installation, the product must be stored inside, off the ground, in a dry, well-ventilated area away from extreme temperature fluctuations. It is important to protect the panels during storage by covering and protecting all parts that can be exposed to damage, light or moisture however, panels must not be left wrapped in a non-breathable material (i.e.plastic) for longer than 4 days. The panels must be stacked squarely on top of one another with a full cover sheet on top to avoid edge discolouration. Panels should not be exposed to natural light when being stored as wood is a natural material and changes over time when exposed to UV-light.

Clean off any dust that accumulates immediately.
