Our 2-day training courses are held in specially selected venues which reflect the scale and complexity of PVC cladding installations.
The courses cover all aspects including the basics. For example, the efficient layout of materials, tools and equipment, where to start, measuring, preparing the substrate surface, mixing and applying the adhesive and positioning the first sheet on the wall.
Our simple range of PVC trims are relatively easy to use when you are familiar with the different types. Joints are extremely important when installing AM-Clad systems because long-term hygienic performance is entirely dependent on all joints being fitted correctly.
Leaving 3-4mm expansion gaps at all PVC joints allows the sheets to expand in hot conditions. Full guidance on storage, installation and operating temperatures can be found in AM-Clad and AM-Guard Installation Guides.
