Exterior Wood

Facing strong sunlight, wind and rain every day, wood in the garden or as cladding has some special demands on its construction and surface treatment. In outdoor areas, it can be utilized in various ways. In the garden, it can either blend into the natural surroundings or stand out making a modern and bold style. Timber cladding creates many different looks: a straight-lined contemporary urban style, a romantic farmhouse look or a rustic Scandinavian appearance.

At our planing mill in Warendorf, various wood species, from European softwoods to more exotic hardwoods, thermally treated and pressure impregnated timber as well as wood polymer composites are cut, sawn and planed into cladding, decking as well as privacy screens and fencing. To please individual tastes, many different surface textures, for example a sculpted wave-like character, a brushed surface with a pronounced grain or a hand-planed scraped look, can be created on our timber decking and privacy screens. Our cladding systems have won various design awards and adorn several renowned buildings and outdoor complexes. Many of our most popular wood products are those that are factory finished with our own natural oil and wax coatings, stains and finishes.

The garden wood products and timber cladding from Osmo are unfortunately unavailable outside of Germany. However, this combination of planing mill and coating plant provide an optimal set-up to develop high quality coating systems, finishes as well as cleaning and care products specifically for wood.
