Natural Wood Finishing Excellence with Selder & Co.
Selder & Co. offers a refined approach to wood care by combining traditional craftsmanship with modern environmental standards. Crafted in Sweden, their range of wood finishes—featuring oils, waxes, soaps, and cleaners—are made using natural, plant-based ingredients that protect and enhance timber without the use of harmful chemicals. Ideal for use on fine furniture, floors, benchtops, and timber interiors, these products are trusted by restoration professionals and designers worldwide.
The cornerstone of the Selder & Co. range is its linseed oil-based finishes, which penetrate deeply into the wood grain to nourish, strengthen, and protect from within. Unlike surface-sealing finishes, these oils allow the timber to breathe, preserving its tactile and visual authenticity while still offering resistance to wear, water, and dirt. Their wax and soap products further enhance the timber’s natural beauty, creating a warm, matte patina that improves with age and regular maintenance.
One of the key advantages of using Selder & Co. products is their minimal environmental impact. They contain no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making them safe for indoor use—even in sensitive environments like nurseries, kitchens, or schools. Application is straightforward and forgiving, even for beginners, and maintenance involves simple reapplication rather than full sanding or refinishing. This makes Selder & Co. a sustainable, long-term choice for anyone seeking both beauty and practicality in wood finishing.
Whether you're restoring an antique dining table, finishing a hardwood floor, or simply maintaining timber joinery, Selder & Co.’s natural finishes offer a superior, non-toxic solution that respects the integrity of the wood while delivering professional-grade results. Their products reflect a deep respect for both timber and tradition—offering woodworkers a healthier, more natural alternative to conventional finishing systems.
FAQs
What makes Selder & Co. finishes different from other wood oils?
Selder & Co. finishes are made from natural, plant-based ingredients with no added solvents or VOCs. Their linseed oil formulations penetrate deeply to strengthen and protect wood without forming a surface film, allowing the timber to breathe naturally.
Can Selder & Co. products be used on kitchen benchtops?
Yes, they are food-safe once cured and ideal for use on timber benchtops, cutting boards, and kitchen furniture. Their natural composition makes them a safe and durable choice for food-contact surfaces.
Do I need to sand between applications?
No sanding is required between maintenance coats. After the initial application, surfaces can be refreshed by cleaning and applying another coat of oil, soap, or wax depending on the finish used.
Are these finishes suitable for floors?
Yes, Selder & Co. oils and soaps are excellent for timber flooring. They provide durable, breathable protection that is easy to maintain and repair over time without sanding or harsh chemicals.
How do I maintain surfaces finished with Selder & Co. products?
Regular cleaning with their dedicated soap helps maintain the protective layer and natural look. Over time, the surface can be refreshed with additional oil or wax without stripping or sanding the timber.
Do Selder & Co. products change the colour of the wood?
Linseed oil naturally deepens and enriches the wood’s colour, enhancing the grain and warmth. However, it does not stain the wood artificially, allowing the timber’s natural tones to shine through.
Are these finishes child- and pet-safe?
Yes, once cured, Selder & Co. finishes are non-toxic and safe for households with children and pets. Their solvent-free formulations are designed with indoor air quality and environmental safety in mind.
Can I apply Selder & Co. oils over other finishes?
No, the wood must be bare and free from previous coatings for proper absorption. Any existing varnish or polyurethane must be fully removed before applying Selder & Co. oils to ensure proper penetration and bonding.
Is there a difference between the soap and wax products?
Yes. The soap is used primarily for routine cleaning and light protection, especially on oiled floors and furniture. The wax provides a deeper protective finish and soft lustre, often used after oiling for added durability.
