Based on highly refined renewable raw materials: Soybean, Sunflower and Thistle oils; as well as Carnauba and Candelilla waxes. Comparison tests have proved that our products are among the longest lasting coating systems ever.

When dry, our finishes unfil both DIN EN 71.3 (suitable for children's toys) and DIN 53160 (resistant to perspiration and saliva), making them safe for humans, animals and plants.

The oils penetrate the pores of the wood, and the hardwaxes form a breathable, protective barrier. Our finishes meet the strict requirements of DIN 68861-1A to be resistant to wine, beer, cola, coffee, tea, fruit juice, milk and water.
