FAQs
Is this panel waterproof for shower areas?
While the panel itself has a water-resistant surface, the MDF core is not fully waterproof. For direct shower use, additional comprehensive waterproofing is essential.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will typically need a fine-tooth saw or jigsaw for cutting, a measuring tape, a spirit level, a utility knife, and potentially a sealant gun for edge finishing.
How do I clean the Matt Breccia Stone panels?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners and excessive water.
Can I paint over these panels?
Painting is not recommended as it may obscure the Breccia stone pattern and compromise the matte finish. Consult Triton for specific guidance if considering alterations.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation or Triton's official website for current warranty information, as this can vary.
How many panels are typically needed for a standard wall?
The number of panels depends on the dimensions of your wall and the coverage of each panel. Calculate based on the panel's width and your wall's width, accounting for the tongue and groove overlap.
Troubleshooting
Panel does not lock securely
Check for debris or damage in the tongue and groove channels. Ensure panels are aligned correctly before applying pressure.
Visible seams or gaps
Re-align the panels carefully. Ensure the locking mechanism has fully engaged. Minor imperfections may require sealing with a suitable filler.
Panel surface is scratched
Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. Minor surface scratches may be concealable with a matte-finish sealant or repair compound appropriate for MDF.
Moisture ingress at edges
Ensure a waterproof sealant is applied to all cut edges and any perimeter joints if installed in a high-moisture area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and free from debris before installation. Measure and cut panels as needed using appropriate tools for MDF. Align the tongue of one panel with the groove of the next and press firmly to engage the locking system. Use appropriate adhesive and mechanical fixings as recommended by Triton for secure mounting.
Compatibility: This panel is designed for interior wall applications. It is compatible with most standard bathroom construction methods. For shower enclosures or areas with direct water contact, ensure the panel and surrounding areas are adequately waterproofed according to local building codes and best practices.
Care: Clean the panels with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture. For stubborn marks, use a mild detergent diluted with water, followed by a clean, damp cloth rinse. Ensure the panel is dried thoroughly after cleaning.
