HOW TO CARE FOR OAK JOINTS?

Caring for oak joinery is key to maintaining its beauty and functionality. Here are the main aspects of how to properly care for oak joinery:

Surface maintenance

Regular oiling:  It is recommended to regularly treat worktops and joints with natural oil to maintain their appearance and protect them from moisture. The oil penetrates the wood and protects it from the inside, while the top layer of oil creates a protective film.

Cleaning:  Dust and general dirt can be wiped off with a regular cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a wood cleaner, such as Osmo spray cleaner.

Protection against damage

Avoid sharp objects:  Use pot holders under hot pots and avoid using sharp tools directly on the surface to prevent permanent marks.

Repairs:  If permanent signs of use appear on the board, it can be completely sanded and repainted.

Humidity and temperature

Stability:  Oak joinery is resistant to moisture, but it is a good idea to place it in an environment with stable temperature and humidity to minimize the risk of warping or cracking.

Recommendations for use

Interior use:  Oak jointing boards are ideal for furniture, floors, ceilings and other interior elements due to their aesthetics and strength. Outdoors they can be used for terraces or cladding.

By following these recommendations, oak joinery will retain its beauty and functionality for many years.
