Osmo –www.osmona.com
OSMO is a German based company that has been manufacturing wooden products for decades. Out of this experience they have developed a special wood finish that fully matches the demands of wood as a natural material.
In contrast to other wood finishes - which form a plastic like film sticking to the surface – Osmo’s special oil-wax combination penetrates into the wood and builds out a net with the wood fibers. The micro-porous finish allows the wood to breathe, moisture can evaporate and the wood can be maintained in a healthy way. |

Lifetime Wood Treatment www.valhalco.com
Using a secret recipe handed down through generations of European woodcrafters, this product has been used on outdoor wood for over 60 years. It was used on the interpretive signs in several national parks in Canada from 1981-1986, and due to the success of Lifetime it was again used in 1994 when signs were needed in other national parks.
The natural substances penetrate the wood fibers, permanently modifying the wood structure. No Toxic Chemicals! Friendly to plants, animals, and people, Lifetime can be used in direct contact with garden soil without any toxic effect. By using this economical and environment-friendly wood treatment product, you make a positive statement about conserving your environment. |

Napier Wood Restoration
Napier Environmental Technologies Inc. manufactures new technologies to replace existing environmentally hazardous chemicals commonly used for de-coating surfaces and for wood restoration. The vast majority of other surface stripping products relies on harsh chemicals that are foul smelling and toxic. The main chemical agent used in those products is methylene chloride, which has been classified by the Environmental Protection Agency as a potential cause of cancer in humans.
Napier products lift the surface coating through a water-based, patented process called SARA Technology (Selective Adhesion Release Agent) that is much safer - and easier - to use. We carry Napiers wood restoration line, including Simple Wash and Natural Deck Oil and can special order any other Napier product for you. |
