Avoid continuous localised heat. If used in situations of localised heat, such as adjacent to ovens, the maximum temperature to which the panel should be subjected to for long periods (up to 8 hours) is 100 C. In applications, such as use in fire surrounds, panels are subjected to direct heat more or less continuously. In such cases we would not recommend the use of Multipanel.
