Care of Material

Weatherability


Storage

Store Marvec sheets on horizontal flat surfaces, pallets or wooden bearers with flat surfaces at least 100mm wide placed at centres not exceeding 900mm. Storage should be indoors as far as possible.Where Marvec is stored outdoors it must be protected from the sun, wind and water. Cover securely with an opaque waterproof cover draped over timbers placed on the top of the stack and ensure that the stack is ventilated to prevent heat build up. Never stack more than 1.2m high. Sunlight is magnified in passing through even a few uncovered stacked sheets, increasing their temperature and leading to distortion and degradation.Water between the sheets accentuates these processes.
Low Maintenance


Cleaning

Periodic cleaning preserves appearance and ensures optimum performance. Loosen any dried dirt with lukewarm water and wash with a lukewarm soapy water solution using a soft cloth or sponge to gently remove dirt. Repeat this process if necessary, rinse off and dry with a soft cloth. Never use solvents or alkaline cleaners on Marvec: do not scrub with brushes or sharp instruments as these will mark the surface. Incorrect cleaning which in any way damages the sheet automatically renders void all warranties.
 
Light Transmission


Safety
Marvec is a glazing material and should therefore be handled with due care at all times. NEVER walk on Marvec sheets. Where access across a Marvec covered roof is necessary, use walking boards placed across at least three purlins to spread the load. Marvec will require additional safety measures to satisfy the CDM regulations in the UK. Contact Brett Martin for full details.
