Timber Panel Acclimatisation and Humidity

Timber panels, like other wood based products and many other building materials, will respond to
fluctuations in relative humidity and variations in temperature. Board dimensions are closely related
to moisture content.

It is imperative that all timber-based panels are acclimatised in the immediate area in which they are
to be installed for seven (7) days before installation. Panels should be split from the packing and
placed around the room without any obstruction to hinder their capacity to ‘breathe’.

Room temperature and humidity levels should remain constant and conform with accepted building
practices thus ensuring environmental stability and panel longevity.
