Cleaning and maintenance
Maxi is a composite raw material made of PVC and vegetable bers. Those bers proceed from the
recycling of organic waste from agriculture. The waste reduction and the recycling of materials, help
Maxi to fulll with the Emac®’s commitment with the Environment and the sustainable construction.
Maxi has an original nish, similar to wood and natural elements, which adapts to different decorative
environments. The main advantage of this composite is that has the best qualities of PVC and vegetable
bers such as good mechanic strenght, abrasion resistance and dimensional stability among others.
Novoescuadra Maxi es an “easy to install” prole:
1. First clean the prole and the surface to install to facilitate a correct adhesion without imperfections.
2. Then, apply adhesive in the inner layers of the prole. This prole has transparent color so you’ll have
to use a colorless adhesive or silicone.
3. Align the prole to the edge and keep it pressed for a while.
4. Remove the leftover material if necessary and let dry.
You can clean Maxi with a soft cloth dampened just with water or in a solution with a neutral detergent
5%. The correct use of bleach does not affect the material.
It is not recommended the use of chromic or sulphuric acids or polar solvents as toluene or acetone
for its cleaning.
In Emac® we are aware about the value of moving towards a sustainable and respectful commitment
with the Environment. Therefore, in our commitment with nature, quality and service, in Emac® we
work with the following principles:
• Part of the composition of Maxi and MaxiKenya is natural, so it may have differences in tone that
must not be considered as manufacturing defects.
• It is recommended to take the proles by its central part and not take them by the tops, to avoid
bending stresses which could cause scratches or breaks.
• Do not bend excessively the material. Store it always horizontally and in dry places.
• It must not be sanded, because that could affect to its surface appearance.
• It resists in moisture conditions but it is not recommended its installation in submerged places.
• Remember that the installation of Maxi outdoors, could result in a natural variation of its original
color, being signicantly higher in the range of redish colors. For outdoor installations, we
recommend the MaxiKenya range, which has an excellent weatherability and remains unalterable
to sun exposure.
