Fronts
The basis of our fronts is MDF.
- Our fronts in matte lacquer are produced from a panel of MDF, covered with a layer of melamine. We then apply a preparation coat on which the lacquer is sprayed by a robot. It covers the front face, back face and the edges.
- Our fronts in natural wood - in oak or walnut - are produced from a panel of MDF, which is then wrapped in a fine sheet of real oak or walnut wood. It is then sealed with a coat of protective, matte varnish. For our painted wood fronts, we apply a thin sheet of real oak wood, which is then sprayed in a paint booth.
- For our U-shape design, the handle sections are produced using real solid wood, which is then glued to the original panel of MDF.
- For our frame design fronts in painted wood, as well as our fronts in cane design, there is a small difference: these products are not made from MDF but from plywood. This is then wrapped with a fine sheet of real oak, and then sprayed in a paint booth. The cane itself is a natural material, supple and light, which is produced from woven reeds.
Plinths
- our brass plinths are made from MDF, which is then covered in laminate. The front face of the plinth is covered with sheet of laminate brushed brass, the edges are laminate natural oak, and its back is in melamine.
Handles
- All our handles are made from solid brass, which is then polished, varnished or brushed according to the finish chosen.
- Our handles in matte black are covered in what is called epoxy paint, which gives a pretty, velvety matte look.
- Our chrome handles are made of solid brass, which is then covered with a layer of nickel, which gives them a silver appearance.

Paint
- Our wall paint and primers are water-based (or acrylic).
Find the precise list of components here: 1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one, 2-méthyl- 2H-isothiazole-3-one and mix of: 5-chloro-2-méthyl- 2H-isothiazol-3-one; 2-methyl-2H-isothiazol-3-one (3:1) Classified A+, which means they do not pollute the air in your home. Details about VOCs: - satin paint: <2g/L - primer: <5g/L
Some information about VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds): European legislation limits VOC levels in paints sold in Europe. A VOC-free paint is any paint that has a level lower than 5g/litre. The level of VOC is indicated on the pot, on a scale from A+ (very little emissions) to C (high emissions).
