Premium Timber FinishesÂ
We have a vast assortment of timber finishes available for our customers. Choose from oils, varnishes, lacquers, and wood stains to achieve a variety of different looks and styles. These finishes are highly versatile; their suitability ranges from flooring and furniture to decking and other architectural features.
These timber finishes aren’t purely aesthetic either. They are also highly beneficial, offering scratch resistance, UV resistance, moisture resistance, and water repellence, in addition to visual appeal.
Timber Floor Coatings for High-Traffic Areas
High-traffic areas usually present a problem for timber floor coatings. However, we’ve got specialised floor coatings that can withstand heavy foot traffic. Enhanced durability means no scratches or scrapes, and slip resistance means exactly what it says.
Specialised timber floor finishes​ are resistant to spills, making them perfect for commercial and industrial environments. Maintenance is also easier because finished timber floors are much easier to clean, and they resist dust and dirt better than raw wood, which can absorb stains.

FAQs
What type of timber coating is best for outdoor decking?
The "best" choice depends on whether you prefer to highlight the natural wood, add a translucent or solid colour, or completely alter the decking’s appearance. For natural wood, we’d recommend oil. We’d recommend translucent stains or opaque wood stains for either a translucent or solid colour, and paint for a full, solid colour makeover. We also offer stains that have UV protection that are designed for outdoor use.
How do I prepare a timber floor for a new coating to ensure proper adhesion?
To get your wood floor ready for a clear coat, clean it well to remove all dirt and dust. After that, sand the surface until it's smooth and free of any imperfections. This also helps the clear coat stick properly. Finish up by filling any gaps or cracks with wood filler.
What is the difference between oil-based and water-based timber finishes, and which is better for industrial use?
Oil and water-based timber finishes have key differences in their makeup and how they perform. Oil-based finishes use solvents as opposed to water. Solvents are more durable and give the wood a warm look, but they take longer to dry, release more volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and can yellow over time.Â
Conversely, water-based finishes dry quickly, have fewer VOCs, and stay clear, though they might not hold up as well in high-traffic areas. For industrial jobs, water-based options are often the preferred choice because they're better for the environment and have faster application times.
