GILDING WORKSHOP
CLASSICAL, MODERN AND INDUSTRIAL GILDING
DESCRIPTION
Classical gilding is a technique and an art. It can be easily defined as “orthodox”, both for strictness of its rules and for sanctity of its traditional application context. At the same gilding is modern, because gold’s beauty cannot be left out of more relevant and unconstrained contemporary renditions.

TOUCH-UP WORKSHOP
The practice of touch-up has a high intrinsic value. Small, but effective repairs of defects on wooden and synthtetic surfaces belong to the entire sector, from industry to artisans, from the restorer to the individual person.
DESCRIPTION
The practice of touch-up has a high intrinsic value. Small, but effective repairs of defects on wooden and synthtetic surfaces belong to the entire sector, from industry to artisans, from the restorer to the individual person. Speed and precision enable the recovery of finished and semi-finished objects in just a few moves. Otherwise, these objects would be thrown away. Small, targeted surface integrations resulting as an integral part of normal assembly operations of furniture and fittings, optimising results and eliminating disputes. Here, we offer in-depth theory and practice that allows more detailed knowledge and therefore conscious use of these materials and the specific technical and technological characteristics of the range, in all possible cases and solutions.
COURSE DETAILS
- Presentation of the Touch-up concept and color
- Products and characteristics of the materials
- Specific tools with analysis of the characteristics
- Practical demonstrations with active participation to personally test the various application techniques and firmly verify the ease with which various problems are solved.

OILS WORKSHOP
Oil, being complementary to wood, now holds a new and elevated position in the parquet and furniture finishing sector, both for indoors and outdoors.
DESCRIPTION
Oil, being complementary to wood, now holds a new and elevated position in the parquet and furniture finishing sector, both for indoors and outdoors. Of natural origin, thanks to a balanced (and constantly evolving) technological content which improves performance and facilitates application, it is proposed as the reference point for a responsible and ecological choice. Here, we offer in-depth theory and practice that allows more detailed knowledge and therefore conscious use of these materials and the specific technical and technological characteristics of the range, (www.bormawachs.com/oils), in all possible effects and solutions.
OILS
COURSE DETAILS
- Presentation of Oils, chemical-physical nature, behaviour, advantages and applications.
- Products overview for indoors and outdoors.
- Practical demonstrations, technical testing with direct involvement of the participants.

OUTDOORS WORKSHOP
Indoor and outdoor surfaces, as well as treadable surfaces compared to furniture surfaces, require treatment and attention which is very different and specific.
DESCRIPTION
Indoor and outdoor surfaces, as well as treadable surfaces compared to furniture surfaces, require treatment and attention which is very different and specific. There are numerous possible solutions and the choice must be specifically made based on the characteristics of the support, the intended use, the life expectations, the ease of maintenance and even more so, the aesthetic appearance of the surroundings. Throughout the two days, you will have the chance to explore every application context and range of products of various nature: traditional, water-based or oil-based, for professional or non-professional use.
COURSE DETAILS
The workshop opens with a presentation on wood treatment and the various types of finishes, the chemical-physical nature, behaviour, advantages and applications, with an overview of indoor and outdoor products. Then, space is given to practical demonstrations to which the participants could actively take part to personally test the various applications and firmly test the particular application features of the various products.

WORKSHOP RESTORATION
Restoration and gilding are two crafts rooted in a solid and ancient cultural and artistic tradition. The preservation of patrimony and prestigious decor consists of a combination of knowledge and know-how not regardless of experience and the quality of the materials.
DESCRIPTION
Restoration and gilding are two crafts rooted in a solid and ancient cultural and artistic tradition. The preservation of patrimony and prestigious decor consists of a combination of knowledge and know-how not regardless of experience and the quality of the materials. Tradition and past values, therefore, but with a glance constantly towards the future, ecology and innovation. The day offers in-depth theory and practice that allows more detailed knowledge and therefore conscious use of these materials and the specific technical and technological characteristics of the restoration and gilding range .

DECORATION WORKSHOP
The attention to furniture and room decoration at every level, in public and private buildings, luxury residences or normal homes, confirms an essential tendency towards beauty and harmony.
DESCRIPTION
The attention to furniture and room decoration at every level, in public and private buildings, luxury residences or normal homes, confirms an essential tendency towards beauty and harmony. Shabby Chic decor is a current trend allowing freedom of interpretation. With no creative restrictions and the fact it is easy to do makes this technique extremely enticing both for the private individual and the artisan wanting to modernise furniture surfaces which are no longer functional or customise new objects. And, with this spirit in mind, Borma proposes a themed workshop on these materials and techniques.

LEGENDA
Conformity EN 71.3 Toy safety - Part 3: Migration of certain items.
Eurofins danish laboratories have recognized the conformity of Borma Wachs oils to EN 71-III norm, relating to the migration of harmful heavy metals, guaranteeing the safety of the treatments in such a way that they can also be safe for use on childrens' toys.
Labeling of construction products
This label covers the French legislation relating to emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and the impact they have on indoor air quality after the product is brought into the room.
Labeling refers to the pollutants emitted once the products are spread and dried.
The IBR Green Building Institute had tested some of our products and determined that they correspond to the highest standards of the aforementioned French VOC legislation.
EMICODE EC1 - Low-emission building materials
Certified installation materials, adhesives and construction products
The EMICODE mark guarantees that the material has been tested and certified according to its emission level. Compared to 1997, low-emission building materials now have a TVOC value (total quantity of volatile organic compounds) from one hundred to one thousand times lower. The EMICODE mark is not issued if a building material is suspected of altering genetic makeup, causing cancer or impairing reproductive capacity.
APEO (alkylphenol ethoxylates)
APEOs (alkylphenol ethoxylates) are highly persistent chemicals, which are deposited in the tissues, penetrating, through them, into the food chain.
Recent studies demonstrate its toxicity and danger, as potential endocrine disruptors.
