FAQ
PMC Fabric Storage Guidelines:
- Temperature: 10-30°C (avoid extreme heat or cold)
- Humidity: 40-70% RH (excessive humidity degrades fabric, too dry causes brittleness)
- UV Protection: Keep in opaque packaging — UV radiation degrades PET and PA polymers
- Orientation: HORIZONTAL storage only — vertical storage causes fabric distortion and damage
- Stacking: Maximum 3 rolls high to prevent bottom roll compression
- Shelf Life: 2 years from date of manufacture
- Long-Term Storage: If stored >1 year, inspect thoroughly before installation for any signs of degradation
