mafi Oak Vulcano brushed natural oil is not only a heard wearing and warmness spending floor, it is also installed in the big Wellness Hotel Alpina in the “Alpendorf” in St. Johann / Pg. in Austria. They used the mafi Oak Vulcano for a heavily frequented area in the restaurant and the Wellness Area of the Hotel.

What you have to keep in mind if you use a mafi floor for a heavily frequented area…

You have to put felt pads on the chair to get no scratches. In public areas it is important to reoil the floor once a year to give the floor the ingredients it needs to keep the hard wearing surface as beautiful as it was on the first day. With the reoiling small scratches will be gone and the floor will get a saturated colour. It is important to know that for cleaning you have to use  mafi wood floor soap. Never use any other cleaning fluids as the floor’s surface can become washed out and sensitive to dirt as the mafi soap is cleaning and refatting the floor all at once. We recommend working with 2 buckets: 1 bucket with soap mixture and 1 bucket with clear water that is used to rinse the soiled wiping mop; change water frequently.

Advantages for public areas:

Resistance through use of mafi ‘s natural Oil because the Oil penetrates into the wood’s pores where it hardens. After hardening the surface is extremely hard wearing yet stays breathable and open-pore. Because of the open-pore surface the floor is free from static electricity and regulates the air humidity. Then  the regular care with mafi soap the floor increases its natural robustness as the soap contains protective vegetable oils. Small pressure marks will disappear without further treatment when the floor is damp wiped. mafi floors have a lot of positive advantages not only the optical look and uniqueness they are especially long lasting and dimensionally stable in each region of the world.
