Natural oils for wood: the best for you and for the environment certified in green building
There is a whole world behind Borma Wachs' natural oils for wood: the world of green building!
When it comes to green building, a range of possibilities and uncertainties opens up. In our country there is still no univocal national legislation, but the recent push towards energy efficiency and the quality and health of the environments, residential and otherwise, has led to the birth of several certification bodies and the promotion of natural architecture, or green building.
Given our vocation for the treatment and cosmetics of wood, we turned to one of the most authoritative European bodies in the sector: the Rosenheim Institute for Green Building, o IBR, in Germany. The German institution will celebrate its 40th anniversary in a few months and we are proud to count it among the partners who accompany us in our path of quality and responsibility.

WOOD TREATMENT: DISCOVER THE 360° PRODUCT RANGE

Oil-based solutions
Since ancient times, wood has been treated with different types of oil: the porous nature of the wood allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the fibers, not only reviving its colors and veins, but also protecting it from changes in humidity.
Borma Wachs knows the importance of this step in wood care. Thanks to years of experience in the field and research in the laboratory, he has developed a line of products based on natural oils ideal for the care of indoor furniture with VOC-free treatments (zero emissions). In fact, the range ranges from hard-top solutions for elements in contact with food to products for outdoor areas more exposed to the elements.
We started this section by talking about the porosity of wood: however, those who work with essences know very well the difference in terms of porosity and absorption between a fir and a mahogany. This is why we remind you that our technical data sheets also contain all the recommendations on how to optimize each treatment and on which are the best accessories to always obtain a perfect result.
Rely on Borma Wachs to make sure your wood is always beautiful and protected: in addition to pure oil-based impregnating products, you can find integrated solutions with precious resins and waxes, to provide surfaces with the best natural protection.
We put at your disposal numerous solutions based on natural wax, essential to fully enhance the beauty of wooden furnishings. Thanks to our passion and dedication, it takes very little to ensure a long life and a fantastic appearance for your wooden elements: at Borma Wachs you really find everything you need!

THE BEST WOOD CARE PRODUCTS: CERTIFIED AND VOC-FREE!

The best wood care products: water-based products
The introduction of water-based paints has been the turning point of wood-care products: these paints are easy to apply, dry quicker, smell less and you can wash your brushes with water. Last but not least: these products are the most eco-friendly, and they are safe to use indoor without the need of consistent ventilation. There is a misconception that these advantages come at the price of durability; while it is true that solvent- and oil-based products will form a thicker, stronger film on treated surfaces, water-based wood care products perform better in regards of flexibility (they will resist the natural contraction and expansion of wood when subjected to temperature, humidity and UV light) and permeability (they form a microporous film that can let moisture in the wood evaporate).
Borma Wachs' "Naturaqua" line of products offers water-based wood care solutions for a wide range of applications, both indoor and outdoor. With Borma Wachs, superb quality and customer care don't have to compromise on environmental sustainability: let our products inspire you and enhance your craftmanship!
