5. Use of products

5.1 Transportation and storage

Textile fiberglass is sensitive to moisture and abrasion. Manufacturers' packaging takes this into account: leaving products in their original packaging until use is the best protection. If they are not completely used up, they should be repackaged.

Exposure to water (rain, accidental leaks, etc.) must also be avoided because, even after drying, the product's properties may be significantly altered. Similarly, in cold weather, it is recommended to avoid condensation and allow the packaged product to return to the temperature of the work area for a sufficient amount of time.

And finally, it is necessary to ensure good inventory rotation.
