THE VALUE OF TRADITION
A heritage inherited over thousands of years of work
Traditions can persist and evolve for thousands of years. The word tradition derives from the Latin “tradere” which literally means to transmit, deliver, give into custody. Traditional works of art, artifacts, craft techniques and arts are considered by governments as a precious heritage of cultural value to humanity and are protected by international, national and regional laws.

TRADITIONAL FINISHES
When technology meets the past
Traditional finishes are formulations based on solid resins, waxes and oils in liquid carriers. After application the solid substances harden directly or through chemical reactions between the components of the finishes.
The numerous practical difficulties encountered in the application phase are significantly reduced by the formulation experience that has been accumulated and handed down over the years in Borma Wachs. Traditional formulations guarantee excellent results even where there are limited manual skills or where difficult-to-treat substrates are used because the most effective additive used by Borma Wachs is ‘the love for wood’.
Traditional finishing systems with wax, oil and resin penetrate deeply into the wood, protect the surface, and enhance the natural color of the wood.

THE ADVANTAGES OF OIL
Protection that goes deep
The oil-based technology guarantees homogenous, even wearing without the threat of flaking, cracking and delamination. Retouching and restoring however significant can be done quickly without the need for time-consuming sanding operations.

CERTIFICATIONS AND COMPLIANCE
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.
EC1
CERTIFICATIONS AND COMPLIANCE
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
CERTIFICATIONS AND COMPLIANCE
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.
