In order to achieve the highest product standards and long lifespan when using wood Erlau use Pagwood.
What is Pagwood?
Pagwood is resin-soaked wood-core plywood made of wafer-thin veneer of the indigenous copper-beech tree.
Pagwood is unbreakable and crack-proof, waterproof and even resistant to chemicals. It retains its beauty over a long period as its UV-protection prevents colour fading, and it is easy to clean. It dries faster than solid wood after a downpour, and puddles of unabsorbed rain water cannot form.
When Pagwood is left totally unprotected outdoors it is essential that it is cleaned and polished at least once a year using "Polish Rosa" Article Nr. 80345 from 3M in order to maintain its beautiful surface.
