Here is a brief guide showing how easy it is to fit GEO-panel

Bathroom wall panels and a towel rackThe panels can be fixed directly to the wall if the surface is relatively even, and if the wall is dry, using panel adhesive, or fix on to a frame of wooden batons. When fitting GEO-panel PVC panels to the ceiling, always fix to a frame of wooden batons. When fixing the panels to wooden batons, they can be fixed through the extending backplate fixing tongue using staples with a staple gun, by hammer with panel pins/nails, with screws, or with panel adhesive. When fixing to the ceiling, adhesive should not be used, unless as an additional fixing combined with staples, panel pins/nails, or screws.

To make a wooden frame, strap the wall with wooden batons placed approximately every 30 – 40cm according to the direction of assembly. If the panels are assembled vertically, strap in the opposite direction horizontally, and vice-versa. If panels are assembled diagonally, the baton can be installed vertically, horizontally or at right angles to the panels.

Start off with the preferred end moulding i.e end cap U, internal, external, or scotia moulding. Glue the panel or panel-pin (nail), staple or screw the first panel through the backplate fixing tongue opposite the starting side. Insert the tongue of the next panel into the groove and continue the installation of the remaining panels in the same manner. Use appropriate PVC trims to finish all corners and ends.
