Handling and Storage
Instructions are merely a guideline only and should be interpreted with consideration for the specific building application. All penetrations must be effectively sealed to reduce any risk of damage caused by exposure to extreme radiant heat. Alternative installation methods may be implemented. Safe installation practices are encouraged at all times. Please contact Foilboard Australia Pty Ltd for further information.
It is recommend that if the product is being stored for extended periods it should be kept clean and dry. Any moisture present between sheets should be dried to prevent potential oxidization and must not be stored with either foil surface in contact with any alkaline materials.
