Profile

At Swiss Hardwoods we believe beauty is natural. We enhance our floors natural beauty by using Rubio Monocoat oils for our surface treatment rather than use lacquers. An oil finished floor provides protection from both the inside and outside. The advantages of oiled floors over lacquered floors are extensive. Durability; Oil penetrates deep into the wood providing long-term protection against everyday use while also leaving a protective layer on the surface to protect the floor against water, wine and other irritants.

Natural ingredients; At Swiss Hardwoods we use Rubio Monocoat Fire Retardant Oil as our surface coating. 100% plant based with no chemicals and is 100% VOC free, safe to use and great for the environment. Easy to repair; For any scratches that appear there's no need to sand and refinish the entire floor. A light sanding at the spot where a scratch is, and a small amount of oil applied to the affected area. Very quick and simple to repair. Natural Feel and Touch; With Oiled floors you can feel the grain of the wood, sensual and karmic to the soul. Lacquered floors are built up by layers of acrylic, essentially creating a barrier between you and your flooring. Fire Retardant; Rubio Monocoat Oil System has a Fire Retardant European classification Bfl-s1 (flooring) in accordance with the standard EN 13501-1: EN ISO 11925-2 and EN ISO 9239-1. Health Benefits; With zero Volatile Organic Compounds emitting from a natural product, a Swiss Hardwoods oiled wood floor adds to the indoor air quality.

Nature

Wood that has been growing and maturing for long periods in established forest regions is an indispensable element of our lives and should therefore be handled responsibly. Specifically, this means that new trees are planted wherever wood is taken from the forest in order to ensure the sustainable continuity of the ecological cycle.

This give-and-take philosophy protects the uniqueness of nature. So you can be reassured that you are helping to preserve an intact environment for future generations. Added to which, you have the comfort of knowing that your natural flooring is creating a healthy home environment that you will enjoy for years to come.

The feel of real wood underfoot is a true experience of nature. Its sensual warmth and appearance provide comfort and creative energy.

Wood is our passion. Processing it carefully and with a love of detail in shapes, colours and facets comes naturally to Swiss hardwoods.

Breathing Easily

Nowadays, clean, unpolluted room air is more crucial than ever for healthy well-being and a high quality of life. Therefore we have all our parquet floors undergo stringent testing at the well-known testing body eco-Institut. Selecting a parquet floor also constitutes a conscious decision to protect the environment.

Swiss hardwoods carries the FSC and PEFC logos and supports the ecological and social aspects of total transparency and recognised sustainability in forestry.
