1 🔨 Prepare the Wall Surface

1. Check wall flatness and ensure the substrate is level.
2. Install vertical battens or steel furring strips as needed (400–600 mm spacing).
3. Install a perfectly level starter strip at the bottom to align the first row of panels.

2 ✂️ Panel Layout and Cutting

1. Measure wall dimensions to determine panel quantities and necessary cuts.
2. Cut panels using a circular saw with a fine-tooth metal/PU blade. Avoid angle grinders.
3. Always cut panels from the backside to protect the decorative surface.

3 📐 Installing the First Panel

1. Place the female edge of the first panel onto the starter strip.
2. Ensure the panel is vertically plumb and aligned.
3. Fix using self-tapping screws with sealing washers.
4. Do not overtighten screws to avoid panel distortion.

4 🔧 Interlocking Subsequent Panels

1. Insert the female joint of the new panel into the male groove of the installed panel.
2. Gently tap with a rubber mallet if necessary.
3. Fix each panel to the substructure at recommended intervals (600–800 mm).
4. Progress across the wall from bottom to top and corner to corner.

5 🔗 Corner Treatment and Trims

1. Outside corners: Use pre-fabricated corner trims matching panel finish.
2. Inside corners: Use dedicated inside corner profiles or angle trims.
3. Window and door openings: Install J-trims or U-profiles.
4. Top edge: Install cap trim or flashing for waterproofing.

6 🛡️ Sealing and Thermal Performance (Optional)

• Apply sealant tape or PU foam in high wind/rain areas.
• Seal around window frames and penetrations properly.

7 ✔️ Final Inspection

1. Check that all panels are securely fastened.
2. Verify horizontal and vertical alignment.
3. Inspect trims and flashings.
4. Clean the panel surfaces of dust and debris.
