INTRODUCTION<br />
Enviro Square Ltd’s <strong>KAPO</strong> mineral board sheet is manufactured from non- toxic minerals incorporating a woven mesh that provides excellent fire,<br />
sound, moisture and mould resistant properties. Used extensively overseas as an alternative to fibre-cement and plaster based boards, <strong>KAPO</strong> Board<br />
is an ideal choice for interior lining solutions. The board is supplied in a number of thicknesses including 6mm, 9mm and 12 mm, allowing it to be<br />
employed for a number of uses such as; interior wall lining, partition walls and exterior soffits. Due to the nature of the manufacturing process and<br />
the product itself, one side of the board is smooth while the other is slightly rough enabling easy installation and correct placement. This smooth<br />
finish, with its low moisture absorption value allows <strong>KAPO</strong> Board to be easily and accurately tiled over in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens.<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> Board is deemed a Light Wall Cladding material based on NZS3604, being approximately 10kg/m2 (~30kg for a 2.4m x 1.2 sheet 10mm thick).<br />
Board sizes are typically supplied as 2.4m x 1.2m in size, covering the complete range of 6, 9 and 12mm thicknesses. Also with a density of 1.03,<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> Board is also easy to cut to size using saws and drills enabling quick installation. Fixing is by way of galvanized clouts or Fibre Tek screws onto<br />
timber or lightweight steel framing, with joints then either flush filled or taped prior to application of the finishing surface. For interior use the board<br />
joints are usually filled with an Enviro Square approved jointing product to suit the beveled edges.<br />

The advantages of <strong>KAPO</strong> <strong>BOARD</strong> are light, fireproof and waterproof.<br />
Superior Moisture and Mold Resistance<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> will not rot, physically deteriorate, highly resistant to the effects of moisture. It absorbs moist and<br />
regains its full strength upon drying without changes to the long term performance of the board.<br />
Chemically stable<br />
Board are produced from natural, inorganic raw materials and chemical reaction is irreversible which<br />
results in a chemically stable board that is hard but flexible, a strong board that maintains its strength<br />
over time.<br />
Can be sawed and drilled<br />
Good thermal properties<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> <strong>BOARD</strong> has less ability to transmit heat and is efficient thermal insulation.<br />
Safe to work with, containing no hazardous materials and 100% Asbestos free<br />
Resistant to climatic conditions and moisture<br />
Tested to many cycles of soaking, freezing, heating (freeze/thaw test method). The boards to showed<br />
no cracking, crumbling nor disintegration for applications within normal specifications, the life span of<br />
the board is limited only by the durability of the supporting structures and the materials used in fixing.<br />
Easy to work and fix<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> <strong>BOARD</strong> has excellent workability that can be cut, drilled, sanded and worked with proper tools<br />
and machinery.<br />
Can be nailed<br />
Can be tiled and easily decorated<br />
Highly resistant and termite attack free<br />
Unlike plywood or wood based boards that harbors insect, mildews, molds, fungus and<br />
bacteria. <strong>KAPO</strong> <strong>BOARD</strong> maintains the beauty, cleanliness and healthy surroundings in your<br />
particular application.<br />
30 Years<br />
Must adhere to manufacturer recommended maintenance programme.<br />

STORAGE AND HANDLING<br />
Storage and handling<br />
The <strong>KAPO</strong> Board is supplied shrinkwrapped stacked on pallets and can be stored indefinitely when kept dry and out of the weather<br />
and safe from accidental damage.- External moisture<br />
Safe handling<br />
Individual boards should be stacked and handled carefully to avoid damage. RMS boards should be lifted from the pallet by sliding<br />
board sideways and carrying on long edges.<br />
Storage and transport<br />
Keep dry and store in dry and covered area, if product becomes wet allow to dry before fixing is recommended. <strong>KAPO</strong> is supplied<br />
on wooden pallets with support timbers at maximum 400mm centres. Ensure product is stored on EVEN ground.<br />

FIXING AND JOINTING<br />
(BASIC INSTALLATION DETAIL)<br />
Screw mounting<br />
Fixing to timber framing shall be by way off 40mm long galvanised clouts with a Local Coating Thickness<br />
of 45 microns of zinc, at 200mm centres. Fixing to steel framing shall be by way of 20mm Fibre Tek screws.<br />
It is essential that the fixings are not closer than 12mm from the edge of the sheets and not over tightened.<br />
Nailing<br />
Both manual or power tool methods of fixing the nail into the sheet are acceptable using a flat head<br />
stainless steel nail. The diameter should be 2.2mm or 3.1mm with a length of 3 to 3.5 times the panel<br />
thickness. Set the power tools to 3 to 4 BAR and fine tuned to achieve required penetration. It is essential to<br />
align the sheet edge onto the center of the timber or steel structure. <strong>KAPO</strong> Boards should be installed on<br />
studs at a maximum of 600 mm.<br />
Cutting<br />
Cutting can be done either longitudinally or traverse. A cut should be made on the top side of the board<br />
by means of a cutter or knife. The boards should then be pressed with both hands, cut and then snapped<br />
over a straight edge. For smooth, clean cuts use a circular saw (at least 120 carbide teeth) and set the<br />
speed above 3000 rpm.<br />
Sawing<br />
Can be easily cut using a normal saw, fret saw or an electric saw. When large quantities of the boards are<br />
to be cut, the use of circular hand saw is advisable. Appropriate safety equipment should be worn.<br />
Drilling<br />
Use masonry drills to countersink or drill screws. Place the boards on a solid support for a clean hole.<br />
Sheet Joints<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> Boards are suitable for mounting to both timber and metal framing. Studs are recommended at a<br />
minimum of 400mm centres. A sufficient gap between the joint 2 boards is required, nominally 4 mm.<br />
Support Structures<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> Board sheets shall be supported by framing members spaced at no more than 600mm centres for<br />
both 6mm and 9mm thickness.<br />

HOW TO INSTALL THE PRODUCT<br />
Fixing to timber framing shall be by way of 40mm long galvanised clouts with a Local Coating Thickness of 45 microns of zinc, at 200mm centres.<br />
Fixing to steel framing shall be by way of 20mm Fibre Tek screws. It is essential that the fixings are not closer than 12mm from the edge of the<br />
sheets and not over-tightened. All details of the construction and installation of the <strong>KAPO</strong> Board as an interior or exterior lining, must comply with<br />
NZS3604 except where varied by this Appraisal. Joints between boards are to be filled using Enviro Square approved jointing product, which may<br />
be applied by machine or by hand tool to a smooth finish Where an external render system is to be applied, the joints may be sealed in both the<br />
vertical and horizontal directions by way of ACIS Butyl Tape. There is a Technical Manual describing the correct method of installation of this tape<br />
FRAMING:<br />
<strong>KAPO</strong> Board must be used in conjunction with timber framing and other components of a wall assembly that comply with NZS3604 or in place<br />
of timber framing, with lightweight steel framing that complies with NASH 3405, in all respects except as varied herein, in order to meet the<br />
Performances of the Building Code claimed in this Appraisal.<br />

Slabs of mineral wool fiber shall be then cut to size and interference fitted into the steel channel sections<br />
such that original faces of Rock wool slab shall be parallel to the clad exposed face boards.<br />
Two layers of nominal 30mm thick mineral wool slabs shall be then interference fitted between the studs to<br />
give total thickness of 60mm (2x30mm) and a vertical displacement between horizontal joints.<br />
The unexposed face of the partition shall be then clad with nominal <strong>KAPO</strong> Super Mineral Board giving a<br />

2440mm.<br />
Gaps at all board joints, plus screw fixings at joint and intermediate position, shall be in filled and covered<br />
with fibrous adhesive, applied to give a board covering approximately 0.5mm thick in the immediate vicinity<br />
