OBERFLEX Certification
Oberflex is PEFC certified, which guarantees that wood used
comes from sustainably-managed forests. The programme for the
Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) ensures sustainable forest
management through internationally recognised common rules.
In 2010, Oberflex obtained FSC (Forest Stewardship Council). This
provides a credible link between the raw material supplied from
controlled harvesting forests and a responsible production process.
FSC certification enables companies to make an informed choice
towards products issued from environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial
and economically viable forest management and manufacturing processes.
OBERFLEX Maintenance
The decor face of the Oberflex panels consists of real natural wood veneer,
protected by a resin (Overlay) which gives it exceptional resistance qualities. An
edging strip is also available to match exactly the face and to give continuity across
the surface and edge as needed.
The high resistance factor of the surface and the non-porosity of the Oberflex
panels allow for the use of all maintenance products, including acetone and
anti-graffiti products.
OBERFLEX Conditioning
Materials of whatever type are never inert and are sensitive to ambient conditions
(temperature and humidity). Due to its real wood surface, the panels are slightly
more sensitive to warping than conventional laminates. Prior to gluing, they need
to be perfectly conditioned. If they are glued when moist, there is a risk of cracking
due to shrinking of the wood, particularly in winter when humidity falls below 20%.
The ideal method of conditioning is to store the substrates and panels for a period
of 8 to 10 days in the same area where the atmospheric conditions are the closest
possible to those of the site where they are to be used. This is especially important
in the case of overheated rooms without humidity control.
Ideal conditions are:
• Temperature : from 18°C to 22°C
• Relative humidity : 50-60%
There is a risk of cracking due to shrinkage of the wood if the panel used is too
moist, while too dry a panel may expand. This could result in warping or blistering
on the surface if gluing was not perfect.
Conditioning is effective only if air circulation is possible between the sheets during
storage. Where substrates are to be faced on both sides, it is advisable to stack
panels and substrates in the same sequence as their eventual construction in order
to achieve hygrometric balance. A dry atmosphere is preferable to high humidity.

The aesthetics of the Oberflex
real wood laminate depends
upon the selection of wood
species, the cutting method and
the veneer matching. This allows
for an infinite number of possible
decors and gives full rein to the
elegance of wood.
