Technical Direction
Profile, subframe, fastening, and finish decisions should be coordinated with the installation environment and selected species.
01
Tongue-and-groove or shiplap profiles allow controlled movement between boards, helping manage gaps or buckling as humidity changes.
02
Dense hardwoods such as Chengal and Balau require an appropriate joist system and corrosion-resistant stainless-steel fasteners.
03
Sheltered outdoor installations benefit from UV-resistant oil sealers, while indoor Nyatoh can be finished with clear polyurethane or matte varnish.
