Product Care

Neuf indoor timber products are constructed from high quality premium European birch ply with reclaimed Australian timber legs (where applicable). They are designed to ensure durability according to purpose. 

Products are finished with high quality hardwax oil which brings out the natural qualities of the timber. Where applicable items are coloured with a complementary stain.  Both oil and stain are natural and non-toxic.

The finish is resistant to both moisture and stains, but is penetrable. 

Accordingly:

  • Avoid sitting, standing or otherwise putting excessive weight on products (other than the neuf step, of course) as this may cause damage and issues with functionality of drawers and doors
  • Surfaces should be wiped regularly with a soft cloth to remove accumulated dust and dirt
  • If liquid is spilled on a surface, it should be wiped away with a soft damp cloth as soon as possible
  • Avoid placing hot objects directly on timber surfaces
  • Keep the whole piece out of direct sunlight as timber may discolour
  • Avoid exposure to excessive humidity (such as in bathrooms and laundries) as this can cause timber to warp
  • Don’t use any industrial cleaners on the timber as they will cause damage to the finish
