Biofa manufactures Paints, wood treatments and other decorative oils from natural ingredients. The key focus is on products which are better for human health and better for the environment. Created through 30 years of research and development, there is no more comprehensive range of environmentally friendly coatings available to buy today.
BIOFA Aqualux is solvent free special oil and aqueous paint which is suitable for all types of indoor wood. Thanks to its natural composition of linseed oil and natural resin the surfaces are breathable and easy to renovate. Biofa Aqualux is water-soluble, Satin-sheen, dirt and water-repellent. It has good adhesion and high cover properties. The paint is suited for all woods in indoor applications, like windows, doors, Railings, furniture, interior built-ins, wooden toys etc. It is also suited for metal substrates like radiators and Heating Pipes after having been primed appropriately. It meets EN 71, part 3 (safety of children's toys) and DIN 53160 (perspiration and saliva colour fastness). For renovations it is sufficient to clean the surfaces and to apply a renovation coating.
