Oak is a natural timber with a beautiful grain.
European oak is FSC Certified and does not in any way contribute to deforestation.
The oak has been treated at source with a sealer and wood preservative. Once outside this will last about 6 months depending on the elements.
It is important that further treatment is applied as soon as you see the colour fading and the wood grain rising. This treatment allows you to maintain the natural look of you bench, whilst extending its longevity so you get maximum use out of your bench.
The recommended maintenance kit comprising of 500ml wood cleaner, 500ml oil, sponge, cotton cloth, paint brush, cleaning brush, sand paper and gloves is supplied with your bench. Additional maintenance kits or Osmo oil can be also purchased.
Treatment should be repeated as and when you experience the same indications in future years. Although this will reduce the amount of cracking that the wood will produce over the years, it will not prevent it totally.
The oak has been constructed in such a way that any cracks will not affect its ability to perform as a piece of furniture. Oak is a wide grained wood and cracks or shakes will open and close depending on the weather. These add to its character and are typical of this well know timber.
If the furniture is not re-treated it will start to weather very quickly and will adopt all the characteristics of oak - i.e. changing to silver in colour and developing shakes, throughout the life of the furniture.
We will not exchange any piece of furniture because of cracking unless it affects its structure and it is no longer fit for use.
Oak is a natural product and will weather inconsistently. However, its beautiful characteristics will develop and become uniform over time.

One engraved inscription is included in the price of your memorial bench. You have a choice of a computer controlled engraving direct into the top rail of the bench, brass plaque or laminate plaque.
The maximum number of carved letters for this bench is 25 characters on the first line and 45 characters on the second line (including spaces) of the top rail. This bench can also accommodate 1 line of text comprising of 45 characters on the bench seat front rail.

Examples wood engraving can be seen in the bench portfolio section. We can offer you advice on the engraving which best suites your memorial bench, find our more
