Ski Lodge Gets a Lift from Sansin Finishes

June 2022 —–
POTM - Ski Resort June

Osler Bluff Clubhouse in Collingwood Ontario is a family-oriented ski club where members and guests gather in a spirit of shared enjoyment of winter and the outdoors. The Western Red Cedar cladding and soffits, as well as the real wood timbers, were proudly protected using the Sansin SDF and ENS finishing system. This full luster system is highly durable and should provide years of protection in this tough four-season environment. Sansin Dealer Birch and Benjamin supplied the finish and is nearby to service the customer and help with annual inspections. The wood creates a charming and welcoming atmosphere enhanced by Sansin – a warm place to rest during blustery days on the slopes.

Sansin WoodForce Protects Mediterranean Gem

May 2022 —–
POTM - Mallorca Residence

The Accoya wood on this beautiful home near the coast of Spain, is coated with Sansin’s WoodForce treatment in a modern Sky Grey color. The coastal climate requires a finish that is durable to hold up to heat and humidity. Additionally, the owner wanted a color for the Accoya that would complement the rest of the home’s finishes. Sansin’s penetrating, breathable WoodForce was the perfect match. WoodForce is an ultra-low VOC wood treatment that allows exterior wood to weather naturally while offering exceptional water repellency and protection from blackening, discoloration and wood rot. The wood was finished at Dresser Mouldings, part of the James Latham group, to offer protection in transit and in-situ, and an additional coat was added on-site. The owner reports that two years later, the finish looks as good as the day it was applied.
