Wood Care Oils

When it comes to protecting wood, paint offers an easy, economical solution. However, not all wood surfaces should receive paint treatments. Depending on your use of a timber product, you may fare much better with wood care oil instead. Here, at Buildworld we offer a range of Wood Care Oils. Explore our range and buy the right one.

Why Use Special Oils for Wood Care?

• Replace Natural Oils — While paint coats the lumber to create a barrier against the elements, oils penetrate deep into the grain to replace the wood's own natural oils.
• Protect Against Damaging UV Rays — On outdoor surfaces, special oils repel the sun's ultraviolet radiation which erodes unprotected wood.
• Prevent Water Penetration — Because oils soak into the wood below the surface, oiled boards have little chance to absorb water and swell

Advantages of Using Special Oils for Wood

• Bring out natural beauty — Even common lumber possesses a certain unique attraction in its grain. The more uncommon the timber, the more interesting its inherent aesthetic properties. Woodcare oil allows the charm of the wood to remain exposed while lending protection against dirt and stains.
• Safe for Food Preparation Surfaces — To avoid food contamination, chopping blocks and wooden kitchen countertops ought never to be painted. Certain special wood oils contain neither solvents nor chemicals that can also ruin your culinary efforts. All-natural oils protect against water, juices, food oil and bacterial infiltration into food preparation surfaces.
