Osmo As A Company
With everything from the popular Polyx®-Oil, the original Hardwax-Oil, to beautifully constructed flooring and decking, pre-finished natural timber claddings, screens and fences, Osmo is the wood product specialist.
Osmo offers a natural and environmentally friendly alternative to wood finishing. The products are based on rapidly renewable, natural vegetable oils that penetrate deeply into the wood, keeping it elastic and healthy, whilst preventing it from drying and becoming brittle.
The wood is allowed to breathe which means it is naturally protected, moisture can evaporate whilst the surface is very water resistant, water tightly beads on the surface which can be simply wiped off – and for exterior wood the rain will evaporate naturally, meaning little or no maintenance is required.
The natural treatment of wood is not only for protection, but the aesthetic point of view is essential. Osmo’s natural wood finishes offer a wide variety of interior and exterior products, it is possible to create an almost infinite variation of naturally occurring shades or bright, vivid colors.
If you want to enhance the grain showing a gorgeous, natural colour tone or whether you prefer to keep the natural, raw appearance of the wood – or just looking for a comfortable, durable surface that adapts to the demands of life, Osmo has the product just for you!
Because the range is not produced for the mass market, more time can be spent on ensuring all the products are of the highest quality. All produced in Germany – the home of perfection – you can be guaranteed the products will not disappoint.

Our Philosophy
Wood
A tree grows into a solid quality over 100 years. Osmo has gathered experience working with wood during its 100 years as a company. The correct handling, processing and long-term protection of wood as a natural construction material has always been our utmost priority.
For all segments of our production – flooring, cladding and garden – we only use carefully selected wood which is ordered by an extremely strict and high quality criteria.
Colour (Protection)
Osmo completes its finishing with self-developed and self-produced colours and surfaces. The colour is based on natural oils and waxes in a unique combination. The vegetable resources are purified and refined and are safe for human, animal and plant.
Only a finish that fits the needs of wood can retain the natural beauty and durability of this material in the long term. Osmo, as a pioneer in this field, developed its microporous, natural oil and wax-based wood finishes over 40 years ago to achieve exactly these goals.
