Handling + Storing of Panels
Storing
• Keep panels dry and free of debris.
• Store panels inside temps 50-90 °F (10-32 °C).
• Any panels stored outside should be
protected from inclement weather
conditions.
• Place panels on hard, lat surfaces that are
not subject to standing water.
• Panels should be stacked no more than
three high.
• Panels should never be stored vertically or
in such a way that the corners are
vulnerable to damage.
If you have a problem, question,
or a request, call your local
fabricator, your regional sales
manager or Polyvision Customer
Service. Polyvision’s global
customer service team can be
contacted on polyvision.com
Handling
• When panels are shipped, they are protected
by craft paper or a self-adhesive transparent
polyethylene ilm. Keep panels in the original
package until installation.
• Handle with care to prevent damage.
• Never slide panels o the stack during handling.
Panels should always be lifted and moved in a
vertical position.
• Never place a panel in a vertical position on
the loor. This is to prevent damage to the edges.
• Prevent dirt from settling on and between panels
to avoid surface damage, scratches or defects.
• Follow all safety instructions regarding personal
protection when processing the panels.
• Protect panel surface against sawdust and
sparks (metal particles).
