Our natural wood panels and furniture are made in Upper Austria (Ried + Pram) according to the strict guidelines of the Austrian eco label.

Since 1980, we have been ensuring that our furniture is produced in ways that are careful, environmentally friendly, and sustainable. We take social, environmental, and economic responsibility seriously and invest a lot in these areas year on year. Numerous internationally recognised certifications, such as the Austrian Eco-Label, the EMAS certification, and the ISO 14001 certification, underline the importance of these efforts. More information can be found in our environmental declaration.

We know exactly where our wood comes from and require our wood suppliers to comply with our high standards. To achieve this, in addition to our internationally recognised seals of quality, we have developed a variety of our own control mechanisms that go far beyond those of the established certifications and which serve to guarantee the legality and sustainability of our forest management. For example, for regions from which we source a lot of timber, we commission universities to carry out independent studies that assess the sustainability of the goods sourced there. We also conduct random on-site audits in the actual forests.

There are a number of options for increasing the humidity. The humidity can be improved by very simple means. Water containers or plants in the room can often have a positive effect. Ask your florist which plants are most suitable. Drying laundry or ironing in the room can also increase the humidity, as can the steam created during cooking. You could vent the moist air from the bathroom into the rest of the house. A damp towel in the room or close to heaters can quickly make the air more breathable during the night. If all else fails, you can buy a humidifier. Be sure to replace the filter regularly to prevent germs from building up.

Too much humidity in the air can damage the walls and your health. Mould can form and damage the structure of the building or enter the respiratory tract and lead to health problems. You should pay particular attention to having adequate ventilation, especially after activities such as ironing, cleaning, bathing or showering as these create additional humidity. The best way of changing the air is to open windows fully for between 5 and 25 minutes, depending on the season. The most effective way of ventilating the room is to open windows that are opposite each other to create a draft. If the humidity remains too high over an extended period, especially in climatic zones where the humidity is always high, it is best to install a dehumidifier.

A constant humidity level of between 40 and 60% and a temperature of between 18 and 23 degrees Celsius are optimal for people and plants. If the humidity is extremely high or too low, solid wood furniture can warp; this may lead to open glue joints or cracks. We recommend you install a hygrometer and a thermometer in the room to monitor the humidity levels. If the humidity is extremely high or low, solid wood furniture may become deformed, it can either swell or shrink. When this happens, the wood expands and gets larger or contracts and gets smaller. The humidity can be improved with very simple means. Plants or water containers placed in the room often have a positive effect.

When caring for the wood, the excess oil should be wiped off after no more than 10 minutes or else it will harden.

So-called "cage creeping" can occur with all types of ball bearings. It refers to a situation where the balls that the movable rails rest on no longer roll but skid for the first millimetres of an extension, which causes the endstop to move. As a result, the pull-out rail of the table can no longer be fully extended. In order to be able to completely extend the table again, move the base for roughly the last 20 cm up to the endstop with a short but firm push. Please note: First make sure that no other object is blocking the pull-out.

In general, water spots and rings can be removed if the water has not penetrated the wood too deeply. We recommend that you take the cleaning pad from the care set and saturate it with natural oil and apply this to the broader surface with medium pressure. You can apply more pressure in the area of the water rings themselves. Next, it is important to remove the excess oil with a fleece rag and evenly wipe off the surface.
