THE EMULSIONS
A path favored by water
Emulsions are a class of dispersed systems consisting of two immiscible liquids. The protective active liquid can be an oil, a liquid hybrid resin or a reactive pre-polymer while water is the second phase that acts as a dispersion medium. On the other hand aqueous dispersion polymers consist of a solid polymer which is synthesized dispersed in water - the polymerization medium
A FILM THAT PROTECTS
Elastic like rubber or hard like glass
The polymeric phase consists of submicron-sized spheres (micelles): a sample of 200 grams of an emulsion generally contains a number of spheres greater than that of the stars in the Milky Way. But the most striking feature of these polymers is the extremely high molecular weight, which approaches one million. For this reason, after the evaporation of the water, the polymers join together by coalescence into a tough, homogenous film. These films, depending on how they are prepared, can have the elasticity of rubber or the hardness of glass. Polymers created in emulsion offer another important advantage: they are easy to use and apply.
AESTHETIC APPEARANCE “NATURAL EFFECT“
Respecting the essence
Water-based finishes generally have a neutral aesthetic effect and in some cases enable the original appearance of the untreated wood to be maintained to achieve the popular ‘Scandi’ look. Water-based products therefore have a "natural effect" based on the final aesthetic aspect as opposed to the material choice.

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.

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 (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.
