BERG & BERG
WOODEN FLOORS
Berg & Berg wooden flooring is easy to
lay and being surface treated before it leaves the factory, can be used immediately after
laying. Problems associated with the smell of varnish or sanding dust simply do not arise.
You can choose between two surface treatments with different characteristics. Both comply
with the highest Berg & Berg standards of quality and are a match for even the most
demanding situations in the home.
The difference between varnishing and oil treatment lies in the
appearance and sense of warmth each creates. They also vary in terms of maintenance and
care. |
VARNISHED
FINISHContaining no
solvents or fomaidehyde, the silk-matt varnished finish is dirt repellent and
hard-wearing, and provides the utmost protection for your high quality wooden floors.
High-grade Berg & Berg varnish treatment makes the wooden floor
particularly easy to care for.
Vacuum cleaning and occasional washing are all that is required. In cases of
particularly heavy use, the varnished surface can also be protected with a suitable floor
polish.
If, after years, it needs renovation - no problem. Thanks to a 4 mm (approx.)
thick surface layer made of sawn, solid wood boards, Berg & Berg wood flooring can be
sanded and re-varnished over and over again.
Please note, we do not use any colour pigments in our varnish. After all, what
could be more beautiful than the warm colour of the wood itsel+ |
OILED FINISH
An oiled finish emphasizes the natural character of the wooden
floor to a more marked extent.
The oil penetrates deep into the wood,
giving it long lasting protection. The wood also absorbs moisture,
which it gives off again when needed. It is able to breathe, and thus contributes to an
improvement in the atmosphere in the room.
Those who prefer this particularly natural form of treatment will also accept
that it demands a certain amount of care. For daily cleaning, vacuuming or brushing is
sufficient.
During the early weeks and thereafter at intervals
(depending on use),
it should be wet cleaned with floor cleaning soap.
This will not only clean the floor but also effectively protect it against becoming dirty.
If the floor is to be heavily used,
we recommend initial treatment with oil, which should then be repeated once or twice a
year to
restore its appearance.
You will find that this is well worthwhile.
If cared for in this way, oil treated wooden floors are not only extremely
hard-wearing but also become increasingly beautiful with the passing years. |
