New Sioo:x Manual Launched
The new manual for our reactive timber finish, Sioo:x Natural Wood Coating, has been just released.
The new Sioo:x manual has been much anticipated for some time by architects, builders and homeowners, and is now the one main source of information for all things Sioo:x.
This Sioo:x Wood Protection Manual covers; the concept and technology, how it weathers, application, and maintenance.
What is Sioo:x
Sioo:x Wood Protection System (pronounced 'See Oh') is a ‘reactive’ coating system that creates a unique protective barrier to timber. It is designed to minimise the frequency of maintenance when compared to other semi-transparent coatings and over time it will weather to a silver-grey tone.
Unlike any other coating system, it will weather evenly across all areas of a project regardless of exposure to the sun. This will avoid the problem of an inconsistent and patchy look where some faces fade due to UV exposure and other faces don't.
The result is a timber with a beautiful and uniform grey-driftwood appearance, long life protection and less maintenance overall.
Advantages:
- Protects against damaging UV radiation, helps prevent mildew, mould and mild rot. Water-based for easy maintenance and wash-up.
- Safe for people and the environment - based on natural mineral and plant-derived ingredients that are low VOC.
