Installing of Granit AS & Toro EL

The construction of the GRANIT AS homogeneous dissipative and the TORO EL homogeneous conductive coverings allows the use of standard acrylic adhesives when installing sheet coverings (2 m). When installing tiles (61 x 61 cm), use the conductive acrylic adhesive recommended by Tarkett.

The work must be carried out in conformance with the requirements of the current relevant Standard within the country where the installation is taking place. E.g.: for dryness, substrates, temperature and preparation.

Installing 2 m sheets:

* Sheets of less than 10 metres: Install a strip of copper foil transversally beneath the sheets approximately 20 cm from one end. 
* Sheets of between 10 and 20 metres: A strip of copper foil is laid transversally beneath the sheets, about 20 cm from each end.
* Sheets of more than 20 metres: A strip of copper foil is laid transversally beneath the sheets, about 20 cm from each end and every 20 metres.

NOTE: Where a cross joint is made, place a 1 m length of copper foil strip below the sheets, equally positioned, parallel to the direction of sheet. (a)
