Installation Guidelines
- Use 10–15 mm joint spacing between units.
- Use appropriate spacers to maintain joint alignment and spacing.
- Clean the surface with water only—no aggressive chemicals.
- Protect installed areas from rain and water exposure for at least 24 hours.
Storage & Handling
- Store pallets and loose units in dry, shaded, and well-ventilated areas.
- Avoid direct ground contact; use pallets or stable supports.
- Limit stack height to a maximum of 1.5 m.
