How to store Knauf Fire Panels
Knauf Fire Panels should be protected from harsh weather conditions. Ideally, the boards should be kept indoors in cool and dry conditions. This is because damage can occur if the boards are subject to continuous heat or moisture. In addition to this, the fire panels must be stored flat. When handling the boards, take extra care to not hit the edges to prevent damage. We recommend that you wear PPE such as protective glasses, gloves and face masks. The reason for this is that the Knauf Fire Panels may irritate the skin or eyes. When cutting the product, you should avoid inhaling any dust. Face masks can help prevent this from happening, however working in a well-ventilated area will also help.
