Storage & Handling

Storage

The rovings should be stored away from heat and moisture, and in their original packaging. The best conditions are: temperatures between 15 and 35 ºC; humidity between 35 and 65 %. If the product is not stored under these specifications, it is advisable to condition it in the workshop for at least 24 hours before use, to prevent condensation. The pallets can be stored in 2 levels (1/1). CPIC recommends that the material be used according to FIFO (first in, first out) method. It is recommended the use of a spacer plate (10mm) between the pallets.
