Tina runs the Instagram account @interiorwife, and here she has shared the entire process from choosing the cladding to the finished result.
- Before deciding which cladding would be best for our cabin, I had to investigate what options were out there. When I got in touch with Mona and Tomas from Marnar Bruk, I got a good introduction to their products and actually the whole process these products go through. I was convinced that this was the right choice and ended up choosing Marnar Bruk Royal in the new colour Storm Grey, and I'm incredibly happy with that choice," says Tina.
The choice
At Marnar Bruk, we understand that it can be difficult to know what to choose in a sea of options. That's why it's important to us that our customers are informed about why royal impregnated wood is a good choice. In short, royal impregnated wood is a natural and stable pine wood, with a long lifespan and designed for a Nordic climate. It requires less maintenance than other impregnated wood and has a 60-year lifespan.
- "Absolutely ideal here in the mountains, and the reason why I chose this cladding. The weather here is harsh and the cladding has to take a beating, but fortunately, with a lifespan of 60 years, it will be a long time before the next job," says Tina with a twinkle in her eye.
Mona Øverland, Sales Manager at Marnar Bruk, explains how the process for achieving the long service life takes place.
- Royal impregnated wood goes through two processes to create the long-lasting, maintenance-resistant product. First, the materials are pressure impregnated and then oil cured under vacuum. This gives the wood extreme rot protection, leading to a more stable wood and a long service life.
When you receive your cladding from Marnar Bruk, it arrives fully treated. The only thing you need to do is go over the cut surfaces with royal oil in the same colour, to prevent water ingress into the wood and to add the finishing touch to the cosmetic look.
