OVER 140 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Trust does not grow on trees. We are constantly working on earning your trust.
Osmo was founded as a sawmill over 140 years ago; the wood finish plant has existed for more than 50 years. Still today, we have stayed true to our Westphalian roots. In our plants in Warendorf and Münster, over 350 employees work on keeping you satisfied. This where we plane and nail; this is where we develop and produce wood finishes.
Wood and finish from Germany
The label “Made in Germany” for us stands for the fulfilment of the entire product chain in our own plants. The same applies for our wood products as well as for our finishing systems. That way we can check and guarantee quality in all production steps at any time.
Wood, colour or wood with colour: with us, you are on the safe side.
GOOD FOR PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT
Many customers would like to have environmentally friendly and safe products; however, at the same they still require good processing properties and a good value for money. Osmo is good for wood, good for people and good for the environment.
The production of wood products and finishes in our own plants in Germany provides transparency and security in all phases of the production process. Short transport ways improve the environmental performance of our products. But also craftsmanship is a valuable contribution to environmental protection due to the fact that the long lifetime of wood and wood finishes saves valuable resources.
NATURAL OILS AND WAXES
The basis of our wood finishes is formed by plant oils and waxes, in other words by sustainable raw materials: sunflower, linseed, soybean and thistle oils as well as waxes. Our extensively cleaned pigments have been approved for use in the food industry. By using wood finishes from Osmo, your customers have chosen a natural and environmentally friendly protection for the valuable resource wood.
CERTIFIED ACCORDING TO PEFC AND FSC®
Osmo supports sustainable forestry and has an interest in an objective proof of origin for the wood we use. Since 2005 we have fulfilled the high standards of the FSC® and PEFC systems for our company and are therefore allowed to offer products with the relevant seals.
