5. 03. Wood Surface Impregnation
Wood impregnation, with unique advantages:
Lasting Protection:
• Against moisture
penetration
• Against adhesion of dirt
• From environmental
influences
• Against fouling and
growth of microorganisms
due to reduction in
surface moisture

6. 04. Benefits
• Easy to apply
• Active for 2 years (external exposure)
or up to 10 years (internal)
• Feeling and texture of wood surface
remains
• Allows wood to breathe and water vapor to pass
• Wood still has its original smell
• Without a visible surface coating
• Hydrophobic surface – with a large water contact angle

7. 05. Specially Developed
• Works well on untreated and impregnated lumbers
• Weathered surfaces or originally scuffed, waxed and
varnished lumbers
• Ecocoat Wood is not affected by the swelling and
shrinking of wood
