FINSO is a French company which specializes in industrial finishing for panelings and parquet floors. FINSO treats its wood with WoodGuard Color to bring it a durable colour and total protection and thus offers to its clients high quality and higly resistant panelings and parquet floors.

Industrial application of WoodGuard Color

Some exotic woods contain tannin. Tanin is a natural extractive which reacts with water and leaves stain or overall darkness on the wood after the water evaporates. These types of woods therefore need specific protection to prevent tanins from migrating to the surface of the wood. Guard Industrie has just developped WoodGuard Bloqueur de Tanin, a primer designed to block tannin. WoodGuard Bloqueur de Tanin can be applied to all types of woods which contain tanins (claddings, parquet floors, terraces, garden furniture...).

Created in 1984, the company Vie & Véranda is one of the leaders of the verandas market. Since its creation, Vie & Véranda has conceived and manufactured wooden customized verandas, respecting ecological and quality requirements.

In order to enhance wood resistance and durability, Vie & Véranda has decided to treat all its wooden verandas with WoodGuard Color. From now on, Vie & Véranda can offer to its clients aesthetic verandas (3 available colours) and wood protected against humidity, premature ageing and stains.
