Shou-Sugi-Ban
O Shou-Sugi-Ban is a unique coating that combines ancient tradition and modern technology. Originating in Japan, this method has been applied for over a thousand years and consists of the controlled carbonization of the solid wood surface, using an industrial torch at 3,000°C. The result is an extremely durable floor, perfect for outdoor areas and projects that require weather resistance without losing its artisanal charm.
