ATTENTION! INSPECT ALL MATERIALS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION; WARRANTIES DO NOT COVER
MATERIALS WITH VISIBLE DEFECTS ONCE THEY ARE INSTALLED.
Expect the Natural Variation of Wood
All our wall products are designed to highlight the natural variation of wood and will feature mineral streaks, open
and closed knots, nail holes, sap wood, heartwood ,smooth and textured surfaces, matte and gloss sheens. Each
wood piece has been individual Kiln dried to ensure consistency of the final product visual.
CAUTION: WOOD DUST
Cutting, sanding or machining wood products produces wood dust. While wood products are not hazardous under
OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29CFR 1910.1200), the International Agency for Research on Cancer
(IARC) and the State of California has classified wood dust as a human carcinogen. PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
This product produces wood dust when cut, sanded or machined. Wood dust is considered a carcinogen by the
State of California.
Precautionary Measures: Airborne wood dust can cause respiratory, skin and eye irritation. Power tools should be
equipped with a dust collector. Use an appropriate NIOSH-designated dust mask. Avoid dust contact with skin and
eyes. First Aid Measures in case of irritations: In case of irritation flush eyes with water. If needed seek medical
attention. If dermatitis occurs, seek medical attention
IMPORTANT:
Read the following instructions in there entirety before opening any packaging or starting
installation
DO NOT INSTALL FOR USE AS A FLOOR
FOR INTERIOR USE ONLY RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL
VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION DIRECTION
The surface must be clean, dry, and structurally sound. If wall is textured, smooth it by sanding.
The surface must be flat to within ½” over 48”
Installation at any other angle is also acceptable although more waste is created.
Avoid walls with excessive deflection. Indications of excessive deflection are concave or convex movement.
SEASONAL CHANGES
Seasonal gapping should be expected and does not constitute a product failure.
It is normal that natural wood will be affected by fluctuating levels of humidity within the installed area.
Care should be taken to control humidity levels to within the 35-55% range and temperatures of 65°-75° F, to
minimize natural expansion and contraction.
Acclimate in the space it will be installed for 72 hours prior to installation. Product is best installed at room
temperature.
NATURAL COLOR CHANGES AND VARIATION
Expect color changes in natural products. Sunlight or intense artificial lighting can cause color changes in the
finished product (Oxidation). Window treatments will usually provide adequate protection and reduce the
oxidation process.
Wood is a natural material and variations in color, knots, and mineral lines are to be expected.
When installing, mix planks from 3-4 cartons at a time to ensure a good blend of the natural variation.
