Seratone Installation

Seratone® panels are relatively simple to install using recommended construction adhesive and if desired double-sided tape. Panels can be fixed directly to a timber frame wall or laid over a range of substrates, such as plasterboard, Strandboard®, Medium Density Fibreboard (MDF) and fibre cement. When planning an installation, it is important to select the most appropriate jointing and fixing method to achieve the desired result. View Jointers
