We would advise that if you are looking for a warranteed system, you get a formal project specific specification from Knauf and the render system supplier for the project - and then work to it.
Feel free to contact me for further assistance, if required

@Runswithscissors what fixings do you spec for aquapanel, rich ?. spoke to my local render supplier(dont wanna name them) and they didnt/couldnt be rsed get back to me todayYou need to put a system basecoat and mesh on first, and then the mono that the system supplier specifies - but yes with some of them... (K Rend, Parex and Monocouche Render Systems all have tested mono systems, Baumit have a lime based finish, and Pics Wallcrete finishes).
Be aware that timber frames will move, so mono systems do have a higher chance of cracking on boards in these types of applications.
You are better using a thin coat finish really
There is a range of Knauf Aquapanel Screws, some specifically for timber, some for galv steel, some for Aluminium.... Knauf have them all in stock for delivery to the stockists (some stockists do stock timber and galv screws).
If I can guess who you are refering to.... they have the fixings for timber in stock...
Give me shout Monday marra, will sort for you!
