0.1 FORMAT SIZE AND THICKNESS

Through the newly introduced format size of 3,200 x 1,500mm in thicknesses of 6mm and 12mm, Neolith is now able to offer a larger, thicker slab for kitchen and bathroom countertops. The new size allows for better utilisation of the surface, as well as reduced waste. For instance, one large slab can be utilised for two full countertops. Neolith will continue to offer its original thicknesses and formats for additional applications including:

• 3mm thick x 3,600 x 1,200mm – ideal for use as indoor furnishings in bathrooms, kitchens, walls, and on furniture such as tables, wardrobes/closets, doors and office partitions. This thickness is ideal for refurbishment projects. Being so thin, it can be placed directly on the existing surface without the need to extract, helping to reduce project execution times, costs and waste in landfills.

• 6mm thick x 3,600 x 1,200mm – ideal for use in flooring, both indoors and outdoors; stairs; covered pools; and exterior facades.

3. HANDLING Neolith slabs must be loaded, unloaded and transported by means of a forklift, gantry crane or other lifting device. In every case of handling and transport, the slabs should be balanced considering its center of gravity. In the attached table is an overview of the weight per slab and weight per square meter.

Always pay attention when moving and manipulating the slabs, to avoid chipping or breakage of the slab. To lift and move individual slabs, The Size recommends the following type of clamp:

Neolith slab handling with ClampClamp

1) Place the clamp over the slab and the plank. 2) Fix the clamp and lift the slab with caution. 3) Try to avoid sudden changes of direction.

Handling with Clamp Plank in the backside of the slab

This clamp can be purchased through CDK Stone. Please contact CDK Stone for more details. In the case that this type of clamp is not readily available, use a 2 cm. thick plank of roughly 3 meters x 20 cms.Place the plank in between the slab you want to lift. Make sure the plank is placed on the backside of the slab.

4. MACHINING PARAMETERS Before commencing fabrication, consult Safety Dtat Sheets @ www.neolith.com Recommendations for 12 mm slabs only.

Before fabrication starts it is important to remove +/-2 cm from each side of the slab in the following order:

These recommendations only apply to 12mm slabs only. All other thickness can be cut without taking in account these steps.

When cutting 12mm slabs with a disc, it is important to reduce the cutting speed at the beginning and the end of the cut to about 50%.

Correct order to remove slabs sides

Cutting speed recommendations for 12 mm


W cdkstone.com.au

E [email protected]

• Rebate Bit: First drill a whole to work from using the core drill bit. Do not lower the rebate bit directly onto the surface. During the first two passes only remove 0,5mm; afterwards, 2mm can be removed per pass.

• Finger Bit: Do not use the oscillation option while cutting; this might provoke chipping.

During cutting it is important to use the maximum flow of water for cooling. Make sure the flow of water is directed to the cutting area.

Verify that the cutting table is straight, level and free of any debris. Check that there is sufficient support for the slab.Large unsupported areas can cause chipping when cutting.

Lighter models (Arctic White, Estatuario, Nieve and Avorio) are harder on the discs because of certain raw materials;CDK Stone recommends lowering the cutting speeds for these models to avoid overheating of the disc.

5. CUT-OUT RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 General Recommendations

When fabricating a cut-out, please bear in mind that the minimum distance between a cut-out and the edge of the slab should be at least 5 cm.

General recommendations for cut-outs

5.2 Bridge Saw, Combi Machine or Similar

Recommendations: • Drill all the corners of the cut-out. • Lower the sawblade with minimum speed onto the surface. (10mm/m) • Make sure the blade is sharpened and has maximum cooling.

5.3 Waterjet

It is recommended to start inside the cut-out and approach the cutting line afterwards.

• The distance between a hole for a faucet and the cut-out should be at least 5cm.

• All corners need to have at least a 3mm radius.

• Never leave 90º angles.

Cut-outs with Waterjet

E [email protected]

5.4 CNC Machine

First drill a hole inside the cutout using the core drill bit. Afterwards, use the finger bit to approach the cutting line.

When approaching the cutting line, use a curved approach; do not use a perpendicular approach, this might create a notch.

Place suction cups around and underneath the cut out as shown in the picture (dotted lines). Furthermore, place the maximum amount of suction cups underneath the slab to prevent the slab from moving.

6.2 Countertop Edges

CDK Stone recommends the following edge for Neolith countertops. It has been proven to be the perfect compromise between aesthetics and functionality reducing drammatically the edge chipping incidences.

Recommended edge section

The edge is made up off a 2mm bevel and two rounded edges with a 0.5mm radius. The radius is hardly visible but it increases the impact resistance of the edge.

Another type of edge that is more resistant to impacts is a radius bevel: The bigger the radius the better it will withstand impacts but it will also show more of the base colour of the slab. In areas with a high risk of impact (sinks for example) a 2mm Radius Edge could be considered; it is the best option between aesthetics and durability.

The edges portrayed here can also be applied on mitered edges.

6. EDGES AND PROFILES RECOMMENDATIONS

6.1 Polishing

Edges can be polished using standard granite or marble polishing discs. Start off with the lowest grit and finish with the highest grit. If required, the edge can be buffed using polishing wax.

IMPORTANT Polished edges should be treated with a water repellent to permanently seal the edge. CDK Stone recommends NANOTOP from LITHOFIN.

7.1 Installation of Sinks & Vitro Ceramics

To minimize the risk of chipping, CDK Stone recommends the following finish for undermount sinks: • Install, glue and seal the accessory/appliance as per the manufacturer’s instructions after installing the surface. • Glue and seal the accessory/appliance to the surface with a suitable flexible adhesive.• Ensure that the accessory/appliance is fully supported inside the cabinet, in addition to being attached to the Neolith countertop.

Under-mount installation for 12mm countertops

For 12mm countertops the edges are bevelled and polished, as there is no glue layer.

Over-mount installation

Flatten the edges of the cut-out and leave a space between the fixture and the edge of the cut-out.

Flush installation

Fabricate a cut-out to fit the perimeter of the fixture. Afterwards mark the perimeter of the overlapping part of the fixture. Grind down carefully to the thickness of the overlap to make sure the exterior of the overlap is level with the surface of the countertop.

Recommended sink section The countertop meets the edge of the sink, fitting flush with the sink bowl. (zero/flush reveal).In areas with high risk of impact it is recommended to use a top mount sink.

Top-mount installation

Flatten the edges of the cut-out and leave a space between the fixture and the edge of the cut-out.

7. INSTALLATION

7.2 Preparing the Cabinets

Properly installed new cabinets are ready for countertop installation. Older cabinets that have had the countertops removed may need additional preparation.

Make sure the cabinets are straight, flat and suitable for supporting the weight of the countertop.

Verify that the countertop has enough support in spaces where there are seams and cut-outs for appliances.

Fabricate back to front supports under the countertop every +/- 600mm. If a cut-out is bigger than 600mm, reinforcements should be installed along the perimeter of the cut-out. All seams should be reinforced underneath.

7.3 Installation of Countertops

Preparation• Place all the manufactured sections of the countertop on the cabinets without adhesive. Check that all the sections are the correct

size and shape relative to the cabinets and the walls. • Use wedges to level the countertop and fill in the spaces between the countertop and the cabinets with natural silicone. • Check that the countertop is straight and level. • Make a last visual examination to ensure that the countertop is to your satisfaction.

JoiningSealing between the countertop and wall

• Clean the space of any debris. • Fill the space generously with natural silicone

7.4 Overhangs

Countertops extend out from the face frame of the cabinets and just over the cabinet doors. This is called the overhang. Standard cabinet frames are 60cm deep with 1.5cm to 2.5cm thick doors. Most countertops have a 2.5cm overhang to make a standard depth of +/- 63cm.

If you have the space, and would like to create additional countertop space, you can extend your overhang. It is important to keep in mind that countertops with an extended overhang might require additional support:

* Taking in account that the countertop has been reinforced all around the edge and front to back supports every 600mm.

Standard Overhang Extended Overhang Extended Overhang w/support

Maximum overhang:

• Without apron edge: 12mm countertops 15cm.

• Mitre apron edge: 12mm countertop 30cm*

8. FABRICATION OF MITRED EDGES WITH APRON

Machine Preparation

Cut the slab directly at a 45 degree angle.

Manual Preparation

Make a straight cut. Grind the edges at a 45 degree angle with a suitable diamond grinding disc, leaving a few millimeters from the edge. Grind down the remaining millimeters with a grit 60 cup wheel and smooth the edges.

Gluing

Make sure to apply the adhesive evenly to ensure a strong joint. To guarantee optimal strength, the mitred edge should be reinforced using any suitable material (e.g. granite strips, aluminium bar or high density polyurethane foam strips). After hardening, bevel and polish the joint to the desired size.

Machine Preparation Manual Preparation

9. JOINING

• Ensure that all the edges are smooth and straight and line up properly before you join Neolith.

• Best results are achieved using a seam-setting device with vacuum cups, tensioning device and levelling jack.

• Apply adhesive and tighten the Seamsetter to squeeze the two pieces together. Don’t over tighten or you’ll pull the suction cups off the countertops.

• Pull a wet razor blade or putty knife along the edge of the adhesive to remove excess and to create a smooth seam that’s flush with the surface.

• Wait for the adhesive to dry, with the Seamsetter in place.

• Reinforce the seam underneath with recommended material.

• DO NOT POLISH THE SEAM.

10. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF NEOLITH COUNTERTOPS

Features of Neolith

Neolith countertops are easy to clean, as food scraps and deposited waste cannot penetrate the material, so it guarantees good hygiene.

Stains created by food and substances generally used in kitchens (e.g. lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil, wine and coffee) are easy to remove.

Even highly aggressive cleaning agents, such as oven cleaners do not affect the surface of Neolith.

Another advantage of its production process is that Neolith is heat resistant. Hot pots or pans do not discolor nor damage the surface.

Neolith countertops can be washed with warm water, to which a detergent can be added, used in the dose recommended by the manufacturer. (Avoid products containing hydrofluoric acid and its derivatives). Rinse with warm water and dry with a cloth or similar. If liquids are spilled, it must be dried immediately. The faster you clean and dry spills, the easier it is to remove stains. It is not advisable to use waxes, oily soaps, impregnating agents or other treatments (hydro-oil repellent) on the product, because its application is not necessary at all. Some of the detergents currently on the market contain waxes or polishing additives that, after several washes, can leave an oily film on the surface of Neolith.

TIP: During treatment, closely examine the spot. If the spot is still there, but is lighter or reduced, you know the treatment is working.Keep applying until the stain is completely gone.

Everyday Cleaning

Lithofin KF HyClean in combination with a microfiber cloth will remove any oily or greasy residues. Simply spray the product onto the surface, allow it to work for a few minutes and remove it with the cloth.

In case of limescale deposits or water marks, use Lithofin KF ClearTop for an occasional deep clean.

If liquids are spilled, it must be dried immediately. The faster you clean and dry spills, the easier it is to remove stains.

It is not advisable to use waxes, oily soaps, impregnating agents or other treatments (hydro-oil repellent) on the product, because its application is not necessary at all.

Some of the detergents currently on the market contain waxes or polishing additives that, after several washes, can leave an oily film on the surface of Neolith.

Do not hit your Neolith countertop with a blunt and heavy objects. It could chip or even break.

Recommended Cleaning Products

Some products may not be removed by normal cleaning operations and specific procedures must be used, depending on their nature. The time the substance remains the on the surface is very important, so it is advisable to clean the area as soon as possible, this will prevent it from drying out and being cleaned more easily.

Here are some of the substances listed for removing residues. g

Warning:Always follow the manufactures’ recommended dosage and time, verified previously on unplaced material or in hidden places.

Step 5:

Once the resin hardens, grind down the surplus resin on the edge mechanically, surface repairs are best grinded down manually to avoid damaging the surface.

Repairing process

Do not hit your Neolith countertop with a blunt and heavy objects. It could chip or even break (the edges are the most sensitive to physical damage).

Step 4:

Using a cloth soaked in acetone, additional texture can be added to the resin to further mimic the surrounding surface. Make sure the level of the resin does not surpass the adjacent surface. Clean the excess resin on the surface before it hardens, using a cloth soaked in acetone.

11. GUIDE FOR REPAIRING NEOLITH SURFACE DEFECTS CAUSED BY CHIPPINGCeramic surfaces can get damaged for a variety of reasons. Most often it’s due to an impact from a heavy object such as cooking pots.

The following explains how to repair a chipped surface. Bear in mind that it is not a perfect repair; it is very difficult to match the tonality and texture of the surface with epoxy acrylate resins.

Step 1:

Prepare chip by ensuring it is clean and free from lose particles

Step 2:

Fill the chip with the appropriate colour-matched Integra Adhesive.For the full range, please refer to CDK Stone Tools + Equipment catalogue.

Step 3:

Clamp a piece of Neolith face down onto the resin to mimic the surface finish.
