Digital Printers Structure-Flex Launch New ADD SHINE TO YOUR WOOD WITH
Wall And Flooring Capability
OSMO
Structure-flex, one of Europe’s leading suppliers of
flexible fabric products, has expanded its digital
printing capability to include a wide variety of
vinyl flooring surfaces and wall coverings amongst
its graphic product range.
With homeowners looking to add a bit of shine to
wooden floors and furniture this autumn, Osmo
UK, the eco-friendly wood and finishes expert, has
introduced Polyx®-Oil Clear Glossy which provides
a gloss finish and adds a touch of class to any room.
The move is the latest development for the
company which has established an excellent
reputation in wide-format digital printing for a
large number of different business sectors and
already supplies a broad range of high quality vinyl
products to the logistics, construction, oil, and
advertising industries.
High gloss has proven to be a very popular finish
and it is likely that this will continue. Osmo
recognised this trend and has expanded its
renowned Polyx®-Oil range to include the glossy
option. The finish defines the grain of the wood
and accentuates its natural colour. It is the ideal
finish to use on all wooden floors, solid or plank
wood, strip parquet, OSB or cork flooring, and
wooden furniture.
With the increasing demand for new and
innovative ways for companies to promote their
products and services, graphic displays on the
ground or walls offer unusual options for brands
looking for alternative promotional opportunities.

Looking for a
whitewashed
floor?
Bona White is a new wood floor
primer designed to produce an ontrend bleached look when used in
conjunction with a Bona polyurethane
lacquer. The intensity of ‘whiteness’
is dependent on how many coats
are applied. This client wanted a
whitewashed look to their original
Victorian floor boards to tie in with
the soft greys of the kitchen. This was
achieved by the application of two
coats of Bona White under two coats
of Bona Traffic HD lacquer.
Before treatment, a few large gaps
were filled using reclaimed pine wedges
and smaller gaps were filled using Bona
Mix & Fill, which is mixed with sanding
dust from the floor to ensure the filled
areas blend in with the rest of the
surface.
To produce a highly durable, easy to
maintain finish, two coats of Bona
Traffic HD lacquer were applied. Traffic
HD is Bona’s toughest lacquer. The
very low VOC content and low odour
mean there is no need for homeowners
to vacate their property while the
works are being carried out and there
is no lingering smell.
Its fast cure time means the floor
can be in full use just 12 hours after
treatment – making it an ideal choice
45
for commercial floors too where
there is little available downtime for
renovation. The Matt version of Traffic
HD was selected for this kitchen floor
but Silkmatt and Extramatt sheens are
also available.
