A bold, distinctive character for striking wooden surfaces

Raw, elegant and full of depth, the Burnt Wood effect lends wooden surfaces a striking appearance. Inspired by naturally charred wood, it creates surfaces with a strong character – intensely textured, darkly pigmented and, at the same time, finished to a high standard. The grain is impressively highlighted through targeted texturing and a multi-layered construction. Rich black tones, subtle highlights, as well as cracks and depth create an authentic burnt effect. The result is a surface that not only impresses visually but can also be experienced through touch.

Elegance with a mineral character

The Burnt Wood – Ash variant combines subtle shades of black with calm, mineral tones. The surface appears as if marked by time: understated, elegant and with an exceptional sense of depth – ideal for striking furniture, wall cladding or interior fittings with a focus on design.
