stacking and handling

Safe working habits and conditions such as lifting of heavy materials (which should be undertaken in the correct manner using mechanical handling equipment where appropriate); cutting and handling of metal components (the wearing of gloves to avoid cuts and abrasions is recommended); and the avoidance of contact between the eyes and liquid products.

Please see the diagrams below for handling and storage guidance.

Where possible, Fermacell Boards should be stored on a flat level base. They should be protected from moisture; wet boards should be allowed to dry out completely on a level surface before use. The stacking of boards on their edges can lead to deformation of the boards and damage to the edges. Boards should generally be carried upright and the use of board lifters is advised when fitting boards to ceilings.
