To achieve a maintenance zero defect furniture, please follow the video mentioning about the working with Indowud nfc.
Indowud nfc is a homogeneous product and hence requires proper constructive grid support (frames, channels, etc made of metal tube) to avoid deformations
Suggested grid square for panelling
Maximum Support Distance
| Thickness of Indowud NFC board (in mm) | 6 | 8 | 12 | 15/16 | 18 | 20 | 25 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neo (in mm) 625+ Kg/CBM |
150 | 200 | 250 | 300 | 350 | 400 | 500 |
| Create (in mm) 725+ Kg/CBM |
200 | 250 | 300 | 350 | 400 | 450 | 550 |
| Build (in mm) 825+ Kg/CBM |
250 | 350 | 450 | 550 | 600 | 650 | 750 |
For ceiling, use 12mm or higher thickness board with suggested grid square support of 300mm for create or build and 200mm for neo.
PU paint & Polish
Do not use NC putty. Ensure that solvent/epoxy-based sealer, PU filler is used. Do not pour water on the raw board before closure of the micro pores all around. Ensure that the micro pores at all sides (surface and edge) are closed with epoxy/solvent-based sealer/primer.
Wardrobe/Cabinet Shutters
In order to avoid bowing or deformation, paste veneer/laminate on both sides before fixing shutter. We suggest to cover the edges with a suitable lipping/edge band. Ensure similar panel is pasted on both sides for similar balancing. In case of varnish/polish/PU paint, cover the micro pores with epoxy/solvent sealer and then fix the shutter. Use hinges at every 300-350mm and magnetic ball catch at top and bottom. Use of stiffener/straighter is recommended. For sliding shutters, ensure proper framing on all four sides with necessary stiffeners.
Suggested Adhesive
NFC-GLU, PUR, Heatx, WP1, Probond, Plastilok, Relam.
Drying time may vary depending on atmospheric conditions
For any glue, we advise to test on a small piece before applying on larger panels
Paneling
Leave min 12mm gap between wall and board for breathing
Leave 5mm gap on ceiling and flooring for breathing and expansion/contraction
Leave a gap of 3 – 5 mm between two boards
Screwing
Use wide head, fully threaded, three times long of the board thickness. Gluing at the joinery is suggested for better strength. Screwing should be slow and stop at the surface. Do not hammer and do not pull out the screw
