PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

KARO roof panels
Made of coated sheet metal are an excellent choice for all those who want their roof to look original. They are mounted on roofs with full boarding on the so-called embroidery. The interesting shape of this covering guarantees that the entire building will gain a unique character.
KARO panels also look great as an element of the composition – as a chimney casing or as a facade covering (e.g. dormer casing). In addition, to facilitate the work of roofers, Blachy Pruszyński’s offer includes ready-made starter panels, which constitute an elegant roof finish.

The KARO roof panel is available only in glossy or matt polyester (up to 30 or 35 years warranty) and PURMAT (up to 50 years warranty ).

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

In the case of collection by own means of transport, the car should have an open loading platform enabling easy loading and unloading.
At the construction site, panels should be stored in factory packaging, under a roof. Storage in such conditions should not exceed 3 weeks from the date of production. After this time, the packaging should be cut open and the sheets should be placed with spacers enabling free air circulation. The maximum storage time should not be longer than 6 months from the production date, otherwise the warranty will be void.
Protective films are used to additionally protect coated sheets against mechanical damage, stresses and impacts that may occur during transport, handling or profiling. Protective films never release the sheet from the obligation to properly protect the sheets during storage or against the harmful effects of chemical agents during their processing. It is recommended to gradually remove the foil from the finished profiles, element by element, before fixing the wall and roof elements to the building. Removal of the protective foil from the surface of the sheet should take place within three weeks from the date of sheet manufacture, if the goods are stored properly, i.e. with positive temperature, no high humidity, without direct sunlight.
Improper storage may cause difficulties in removing the protective film and leave traces of glue on the sheets.

WASHING AND MAINTENANCE

In order to extend the service life of roofs and facades made of coated metal sheets, they should be regularly inspected and maintained.
Inspection – Once a year (preferably in spring), the roof / facade should be inspected for early detection of possible damage.
Sheet cleaning – Roofs / facades made of coated sheet metal require cleaning at least once a year. Dirt settling on the sheet can cause uneven discoloration (the result of uneven exposure to UV rays), as well as reduce corrosion resistance (dirt retains moisture on the sheet and gradually damages it). Dirty and stained places can be cleaned with a soft brush and water (temperature max. 60 ° C). If necessary, it is allowed to add a mild detergent to the water (pH 6 ÷ 7, max. 10% solution). Pressurized water (max. 100 bar) can also be used for cleaning, however, the water jet cannot be applied too close to the sheet surface (min. 30 cm), and it cannot be directed perpendicularly to the surface. At the connectors, the stream of water should be directed downwards so that to prevent pressurized water from penetrating the gaps around the fittings. Old coatings should be handled with extreme care. Washing should be carried out from top to bottom and the cleaned area should be immediately and thoroughly rinsed with clean water.
Scouring powders, nitro solvents, chlorine solutions, aromatic agents as well as agents containing ammonium chloride or sodium salts must not be used.
Damage – Repairing any damage during the warranty period should be consulted with the roof / facade contractor and may only be performed with his approval. Damage to small areas is repaired with air-drying repair varnishes. Painting large areas is, in principle, only possible with special industrial paints suitable for renovation of coverings. The surface to be painted should be limited only to the places that require it (scratches to the metal layer, corrosion centers, etc.). Preparation of the surface for painting should be performed according to generally accepted rules. Any signs of corrosion should always be thoroughly removed – preferably with special brushes or fine sandpaper. Then, the surface to be repaired must be thoroughly dusted, degreased and cleaned. To degrease the surface, you can use gasoline or water with the addition of surfactants (preferably with the addition of 1-2% ammonia solution). The areas to be repaired may show differences in color compared to the original colors of the sheets due to the natural influence of atmospheric phenomena (aging of the paint under the influence of UV radiation).
Organic coated steel sheets must not be used in:
- environment with constant contact with water with a high degree of salinity,
- contact with construction chemicals, including concrete, plaster, wet wood, etc.,
- in an environment exposed to aggressive chemicals
- combination with materials with a different electrochemical potential
ATTENTION – During inspection, cleaning, maintenance and repairs, safety rules must be strictly adhered to.
The company Pruszyński Sp. z o. o. is not responsible for any accidents resulting from the above activities.

THE COLORS

The PRUSZYŃSKI company guarantees the implementation of each order in the same color (shade). However, due to the complexity of the coating processes, there may be differences in shades between individual deliveries.

The responsibility for the color is therefore limited to one delivery only.

Therefore, when ordering sheets for a specific batch, please indicate on the order or inform the Merchant that this is a continuation of the order and provide a color sample.
