Technical Specifications

Coverage calculation:
1 board = 1.2m × 2.4m = 2.88m²

How to Use / Installation Guide

1. Measure the Area
Measure the wall, ceiling or partition area where the board will be installed.

Formula:
Total area ÷ 2.88m² = number of boards required

Add 5–10% extra for cutting, wastage, corners, doors, windows and edge finishing.

2. Prepare the Surface or Framework
For walling, ensure the surface is dry, clean, level and firm.
For ceilings and partitions, prepare a straight and strong timber or metal framework.

3. Mark and Cut the Board
Mark the board according to the required measurements. Cut carefully using suitable cutting tools to achieve clean edges.

4. Fix the Board
Fix the board using suitable screws, nails, adhesive or the recommended method depending on the surface. Make sure the board is properly aligned and supported.

5. Finish the Joints
Use joint filler, trims, mouldings or finishing strips depending on the desired final look. Keep joints neat before painting.

6. Sand Rough Edges
Lightly sand cut edges and joint areas to create a smoother finish.

7. Apply Primer
Apply a suitable primer before painting. Primer helps paint bond better and gives a more even final appearance.

8. Paint or Decorate
Apply your preferred paint, wallpaper or decorative finish. Since the board is uncoloured, it can match different interior styles.

9. Final Inspection
Check that the boards are firmly fixed, joints are clean, edges are smooth and the final surface is ready for use.

Important Installation Tips

Do not install on wet, dusty or weak surfaces.

Use a proper support frame for ceilings and partitions.

Avoid using 4mm boards where heavy-duty support is required.

Apply primer before painting for a better finish.

Keep boards straight and well aligned during installation.

Avoid direct water exposure or continuous moisture.

Use an experienced ceiling or walling fundi for a clean finish.

Maintenance

Wipe dust using a soft dry cloth.

Avoid direct water contact.

Repaint when necessary to refresh the surface.

Inspect joints, screw points and edges periodically.

Repair damaged sections early to maintain a neat finish.
