Keep exotic hardwoods looking beautiful for years.
A transparent, plant-based protection against water, dirt, algae and moss.
Exotic wood is renowned for its durability and natural beauty, but it is not immune to the elements. Rain, UV radiation and algae can affect the structure and appearance of the wood, causing it to grey more quickly and retain moisture. With Inducoat Ecological WoodProtect you protect exotic wood naturally. No harsh chemicals, no suffocating coatings – just a smart, breathable barrier that keeps moisture and soiling out.
WoodProtect is a transparent, water-based impregnating wax for clean exotic outdoor wood without a film-forming coating. The wood may grey slightly after a few months.
Discover natural protection
Exotic wood is naturally strong and weather-resistant, but also susceptible to greying, moisture absorption and algae growth. Its open structure makes it prone to staining, leading to a dull appearance and an increased risk of wood rot. Traditional treatments such as varnish or oil seal the wood, preventing it from breathing and causing it to crack or peel more quickly.
Inducoat Ecological offers a natural and long-lasting solution. The plant-based wax penetrates deep into the wood, forming a breathable, water-repellent layer and thus prevents dirt and algae from adhering. The result? A clean and protected wooden surface without the need for intensive maintenance or harmful chemicals.
WoodProtect is intended for suitable types of wood such as teak, bankirai, ipé, padouk, azobé, afzelia and Red Cedar. Assess absorption and appearance in advance on a trial area.
- Terraces and decks – helps limit moisture absorption and green growth.
- Fences and cladding – protection against algae and weathering without sealing the wood; the wood may weather to a grey colour.
- Jetties and garden furniture – protection against moisture and dirt, whilst maintaining breathability.
- Suitable types of wood – teak, bankirai, ipé, padouk, azobé, afzelia and Red Cedar.
How does it work?
Inducoat Ecological WoodProtect uses an innovative plant-based wax emulsion that penetrates deep into the wood's pores. This creates a invisible, water-repellent, and dirt-repellent layer which allows the wood to breathe. No damp problems, no flaking – just long-lasting protection.
For best results, protection starts with a clean surface. Inducoat Cleaner removes deep-seated dirt, algae and moss, leaving WoodProtect can adhere optimally and do its job long-term.
This way, exotic wood stays beautiful for longer, without intensive maintenance. The wood may discolour to a light grey after a few months.
