OUR WOOD FINISHES – THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE SIMPLE APPLICATION > Oils fill the pores of wood and protect it against the harmful effects of waterlogging. However, they do not form an impermeable film. The wood keeps a microporous surface and continues to absorb and release moisture. > Microporous wood can breathe, which in turn improves air quality. Due to its anti-static properties, it is very good for allergy sufferers. NATURAL INGREDIENTS > All Osmo wood finishes are based on oils and waxes: sunflower oil, soybean and thistle oils. > Oils retain the value of the natural raw material...
