Wet Cladding

Please ensure the surface of the wall is as clean and

flat as possible and free from dirt while the panels

are being installed. The �ling pa�ern should be

marked on the walls prior to installing the panels. A

good quality �le adhesive must be used for

installa�on. The panels can be installed onto

concrete walls, plywood par��ons, gypsum

par��ons, etc. Please feel free to contact the

company for more details about the appropriate

adhesives that needs to be used based on the

available substrate.The back of the panels should be primed with a

priming liquid polymer before cladding them onto

the walls a few hours before installa�on. Bu�er the

back of the panel with a thin layer of the �le

adhesive. Using a notched trowel, apply the

adhesive onto the wall as shown in the image. Place

and press the panel firmly onto the wall.We recommend use of spacers while installing the

panels. The spacer gaps should be filled with

superior quality �le grout / sealant.

The Litheoz panels by Nuance Studio can be installed on various kind of walls using different installa�on methods, both

indoor and outdoor. Please follow the below installa�on guidelines:

Dry Cladding

Stud Impressions The walls should be fixed with good qualitywooden reapers / aluminium channels as shown in the

image using silicon sealant / PU foam and concrete

screws. Necessary packing must be provided behind the

wooden reapers / aluminium channels in order to

streamline the level differences in the wall to enable

installa�on of the wall panels. Incase of outdoor

installa�on, we strongly recommend usage of only

aluminium channels.

A hole must be bored in the centre of the stud impression

on the panel using a diamond impregnated drill bit. Avoid

usage of hammer or impact drill on the panels. Silicon Sealant / PU foam must be applied on the wooden

reapers / aluminium channels to conceal any air gaps

between the reepers and the panels. Firmly install the

panel onto the reepers using a self threading screw and

fix the flat studded steel screw cap onto the screw head.

Stud Impression Panels can be installed using Wet

Cladding system or Dry Cladding System.

Mechanical Anchoring System

Litheoz Panels by Nuance Studio can be dry clad using

undercut anchor systems such as Keil Anchors. Ver�cal

Aluminium ‘T’ profiles are installed onto the walls as

shown in the image (fig2). Horizontal interlocking ‘C’

Aluminum profiles are installed onto the T profiles to

enable sliding the panels in and locking them in place.

Similar interlocking ‘C’ profiles are installed onto the back

of the Litheoz Panels using undercut anchors at the

factory. The ‘C’ profiles fixed on the back of the panels

slide into the horizontal ‘C’ profiles that are installed on the

wall and are locked in posi�on.
