Our mission
Our goal is to protect wood by respecting and enhancing its natural beauty, and colouring it to the personal taste of each customer. This way we are giving the wood a well-deserved extended life, with respect for the environment and people.
Since wood is a scarce material, wood protection is essential. Our mission? To rethink wood care with products that are effective, user-friendly and future-proof. By pushing innovation and committing to ecological production, we aim to set new standards in the industry. Let’s protect what’s valuable – together.

Building with wood
Wood is one of the most ecological building materials available and therefore a sustainable choice for construction. It's renewable, stores CO₂ throughout its lifespan, and requires far less energy to process than concrete or steel. That's why timber frame construction is gaining momentum across the globe. Add to that its flexibility, speed and aesthetic value, and we know that the future of ecological and circular construction lies in wood.
By making wood last longer, we help reduce waste, extend lifecycles and support a more circular building economy. Our high-performance, one-layer wood protection systems guarantee safety for people and planet, while also saving on product, packaging and transport.

Wood is such an important material for sustainable construction, and protecting it with eco-friendly products is a huge part of our mission. We want to do our bit for the planet, and the Taking Climate Action Site Certificate is a big step in the right direction. Together, we’re building a greener future—one layer at a time.
