Carry out maintenance once or twice a year.

DassoCTECH® and DassoXTR® are natural products, and the appearance may vary in grains and colours. When exposed to natural sunlight, over time the colour may change depending on the extent of UV light exposure – a process known as ‘silvering’ (which all hardwoods experience).

To combat silvering, maintenance should be performed in line with the product’s maintenance guide. An exterior water-based oil is essential to maintenance. Additionally, a UV protector can be used, or a stain can be applied to return the product to the original colour.

Bamboo processed and fused with Dasso patented technology.

The bamboo fibres are crystalised with CeramiX® particles and impregnated with phenolic resin (the same resin found in bowling balls), before being compressed to form ‘Fused Bamboo’. The result is a rich cognac coloured product, with the CeramiX® particles significantly extending the product’s life by offering additional protection against rotting, bacteria, fungus, moulds, and insects – so much so, the product comes with a 25 year Limited Manufacturer’s Warranty.

For CTECH, the bamboo nutrients have been crystalised with the CeramiX® technology, whereas in the XTR, the nutrients have been removed via a patented heat treatment process to create the Fused Bamboo.

Starting with the patented fusion process, the nutrients (sugars and starches) are removed from the bamboo. The fibres are then impregnated with phenolic resin (the same resin found in bowling balls) and undergo a process of compression. The result is durable Fused Bamboo® with a hardness rating greater than hardwood (Durability Class 1 [EN 1534]) and resistance to rotting, bacteria, fungus, moulds, and insects.

Dasso XTR® comes with a 25 year Manufacturer’s warranty.
