You gotta hand it to those Germans: their ingenuity and innovation is surely something to celebrate. They continue to produce some of our most beloved brands - Haribo, Audi, Oettinger, Porsche, Adidias... the list goes on and on. Well, we have another brand to add to that list - LOBA. Yes, that beer-brewing, engineered-driven, food-loving country has positioned itself as a leader (yet again!) in another industry. This time it's hardwood finishes.
Located in Ditzingen, Germany (near Stuttgart), LOBA has been a leading manufacturer of water-based hardwood finishes and floor-care systems for over 90 years. In fact, LOBA has been recognized with the seal of 'Innovation Through Research' in both 2014 and 2015. This is awarded to companies that show a special commitment to research and development. We are proud to use LOBADUR® finishes on all our water-based refinishes and finished on-site projects.
As summer approaches, windows open and vacations start, refinishes are in HOT demand. While we continue to offer both oil-based and water-based finishes, we are seeing a growing demand in the latter. Reasons being: quicker dry & cure time, no VOCs and GREENGUARD certified. Since water-based finishes dry faster, this allows less dust particles in the air to settle into the finish. In addition, its clear finish doesn't change the color of your natural wood or yellow over time! So, if your hardwood is in need of a little TLC or you are looking to add new hardwood to existing hardwood, let's talk!
