Essential maintenance products for parquet floors and furniture, wood waxes nourish and protect your interior woodwork.

Applying our natural wood waxes to the surface of your supports will allow you to waterproof them to prevent any water penetration. They protect your furniture and other wooden supports while being non-hazardous to the environment and the applicator. Containing more than 90% ingredients of natural origin, Anova Bois waxes, raw or formulated, release no odor and contain no volatile solvents.

Whatever their species (oak, beech…), interior woodwork must be protected. Indeed, it is regularly subjected to everyday household wear and tear. Wooden parquet floors are exposed to heavy foot traffic, impacts, or stains. As for wooden furniture (tables, sideboards), it gets rubbed, scratched, and exposed to water, food, or grease splashes.
Waxes help nourish and protect the flooring in your rooms and your wooden furniture by making the surface water-resistant. They are non-film-forming and penetrate the wood without creating a surface film. This property is particularly advantageous.
If you want to dewax the wood to renovate a waxed wooden furniture piece with a different finish (wood varnish, paint), you can do so simply by degreasing or dewaxing the furniture (no stripping or sanding required).
If you want to achieve a clear, silky, and satin finish on your wooden furniture or parquet floor, wax is the ultimate product. Wax enhances the authentic natural appearance of the wood. We offer clear wood waxes with a satin, or even slightly glossy look.
Waxes for parquet floors and wooden furniture are very easy to apply in thin coats using a brush or a cloth. Before applying the wax, it is essential to ensure that the wood is clean, sound, and dry. Also check that there are no traces of detergents or linseed oil on the wood surface. Otherwise, the wax may not adhere properly to the surface to which it is applied.
As preparation, prior to applying a wax, you can apply a pore-filling grain sealer such as Pore Filler Primer BP400. This primer is particularly beneficial for highly porous wood, as it allows you to save wax and, above all, enhances the waterproofing of the wood.
If you require extra heavy-duty protection against water and stains, you will find other alternatives on our website such as varnishes for wooden furniture and lacquers and sealers for wooden parquet floors. We recommend wood waxes to protect and maintain wooden furniture and floors while retaining a soft, silky feel and imparting a beautiful, satin-waxed appearance.
Maintaining waxed wood needs to be done regularly; otherwise, the wood will no longer be sufficiently water-resistant, and stains could appear on your wood. Applying a new coat of wax is all it takes. Choose premium-quality wood waxes to maintain and protect your wood surfaces.
Waxing offers a warm, natural finish that highlights the wood grain while protecting it and giving it a delicate patinated appearance. To wax a parquet floor or a staircase, make sure the wood is clean, dry, and dust-free. Apply the wax in thin, uniform coats using a soft cloth or a flat brush (spalter), following the direction of the wood fibers, then buff after drying to reveal the shine.
Wax is the preferred choice for parquet flooring if you are looking for a lustrous finish, an evolving patina, and a touch of classic elegance. It enhances the wood in a sophisticated way and improves over time, offering an inimitable aesthetic.
A dirty or stained waxed wooden furniture piece can regain its shine. Start by dusting thoroughly. For light soil, use a slightly damp cloth. For deeper build-up, a dedicated waxed wood cleaner or turpentine applied with an extra-fine steel wool pad can help dissolve the dirty wax. Don't forget to buff afterwards to restore the gloss.
For regular wood maintenance, whether for furniture, tables, or woodwork, a quality maintenance wax is essential. Opt for natural waxes, such as beeswax or carnauba wax, which nourish and protect the wood while restoring its shine. Regular application helps maintain the wood's beauty and prevents it from drying out.
To change the finish or if the layer of wax is too thick, it may be necessary to remove it completely. Using a dedicated wax remover or turpentine applied with cotton waste or fine steel wool will dissolve the wax. Once the wax is removed, light sanding may be required to prepare the wood for its new finish.
Stains on a waxed wooden furniture piece require a delicate approach. For water stains, gently rubbing with a cloth soaked in methylated spirits or turpentine can be effective. For grease stains, Sommières clay left to sit for several hours and then gently brushed away can absorb the grease. Always finish with a new coat of wax and buffing.
Waxing a wooden table protects it from daily wear and tear (dust, light scratches) while enhancing its natural beauty. After cleaning and optionally sanding your table very finely, apply a quality wax in thin coats, always following the grain of the wood. Allow to dry, then buff vigorously with a clean cloth for a brilliant finish that is smooth to the touch.
