The 'Kimamori Specialty' is a domestically produced high-performance wood coating made from plant oils. It combines boron-based flame retardant components with a plant oil base, allowing for flame retardant effects simply by applying it, known as 'FIRE Protect.' Additionally, it features a plant oil base with high weather resistance components (fluorine-based resins + high UV cut agents), which can resist color fading for up to 8 years, called 'WEATHER Protect.' Utilizing natural materials such as linseed oil and natural pigments, it has almost no odor and does not negatively affect the skin.

U-OIL Standard Type is a natural paint that primarily consists of linseed oil and safflower oil, and does not use any petroleum-based solvents or drying agents that have irritating odors, thoroughly pursuing the "safety and peace of mind" for the residents (i.e., it is the same product as the conventional U-OIL). It features excellent water repellency and dirt resistance, and additionally meets the requirements for natural paints such as fast drying (quick-drying), ease of application (workability), and basic one-coat application (work efficiency), while achieving an almost odorless (low-odor) ideal specification. A wide variety of color options are also available. 【Features】 ○ Safety indoors is the top priority → No petroleum-based drying agents are used at all ○ Number of coats: Recommended to apply "one coat" with a thin layer for indoor use ○ Wiping off is necessary ○ Coloring performance is standard → For woods with strong oil content, such as the heartwood of cedar, a hard type with high coloring ability is recommended ○ Finish that enhances the wood grain For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

We are pleased to announce the release of a new "Hard Type (for outdoor use)" of Sion Oil-Based Natural Paint U-OIL. Maintaining the excellent safety and workability of the standard type (the conventional U-OIL for indoor use), the U-OIL Hard Type (for outdoor use) has further enhanced weather resistance. Moreover, we have demonstrated through accelerated weathering tests that it has a rare weather resistance for natural paints, making it "less prone to color fading for about 4 years." It can be used for (1) outdoor painting, (2) wood that is difficult to color, (3) areas around water, and (4) painting that covers wood grain. The color variations are more abundant than those of the standard type (the conventional U-OIL for indoor use). We invite you to try Sion's pure domestic natural paint U-OIL, which combines safety and weather resistance as a natural paint, with a sample at this opportunity. ● For more details, please download the catalog. ● Additionally, those wishing for a free sample can request it from our company website. ● Here is the Sion Oil-Based Natural Paint U-OIL (U-OIL) website: http://u-oil.jp/
