Cold-pressed linseed oil is extracted from linseed by pressing when the linseed is cold. This ancient method produces the highest and purest quality of linseed oil.

Boiled and mixed with pigments, cold-pressed linseed oil is the best linseed oil paint. Boiling frees the linseed oil from contaminants that would otherwise cause the paint to be attacked by fungi and algae outdoors. The simplest commercial linseed oil is pressed at high temperature or extracted using chemicals. In this way, the seed produces larger quantities of linseed oil, but of lower quality. Such linseed oil became common from the 1950s, when industry took over the paint production that painters used to do on site.

Our linseed oil is of the best quality, produced in unbroken tradition in the same factory since 1839!

Almond Branch Brush Oil

In its original recipe from 1779, brush oil is known as ‘painter’s varnish’. It is traditionally heated in open vats at high temperatures, but contains no drying agents. This product differs from our other traditionally boiled linseed oils in that it dries more slowly, and in particular the drying process in the surface layer is slow.

In the 18th century, the product was used to grate the color pastes. They could then be stored for a longer time without drying out. We call it brush oil, because it’s great for storing brushes during painting projects. Brush oil keeps brushes soft without the drawbacks of raw linseed oil, which can cause matting, blistering and running. At the end of the day, wipe the paint off the brush with a cloth and place it in the brush oil. The next day, or even after three months, the brush will be just as soft, no skin will have formed on the oil and you can simply wipe the oil off with a cloth and continue painting.

Brush oil can also be used as an additive to paint for decorative painting to increase the open time of the paint, or as an anti-shine agent. A thin layer is dripped over finished paints or color pastes to make them last longer.

Mandelgren Linseed oil Anno 1851

At the same time as the white pigment zinc white was introduced in building painting in 1851, a lead-free “linseed oil paint varnish” was launched, i.e. a traditionally boiled linseed oil with manganese oxides as a drying agent, which makes the linseed oil dry efficiently.

The product can be used as a binder for linseed oil paint both externally and internally. It is particularly suitable for oiling kitchen worktops.

Best results are obtained if it is used undiluted, heated to about 70 degrees. It can also be applied cold, in which case it is diluted with between 30-50% turpentine. In both cases, the excess is wiped off after about 30 minutes and the surface is polished to a silky shine with a linen cloth.

Crude linseed oil

Raw cold-pressed linseed oil of the highest quality. Natural and without chemical additives. Cold-pressed linseed oil is extracted from linseed by pressing when the linseed is cold. This ancient method produces the highest and purest quality of linseed oil.

Unbeatable for impregnating wood exposed to moisture, such as boats and water barrels. Raw linseed oil dries slowly, sometimes never. Therefore, it should not be used on surfaces that will later be painted with linseed oil paint. It can cause blistering.

Tips! Raw linseed oil is also ideal for impregnating planters and grow boxes.

ATTENTION! Keep in mind that paper and rags with linseed oil can catch fire. Put them in a water-filled bucket after use.

Linseed oil wax 150 ml

Linseed oil wax for surface treatment of all absorbent surfaces such as wood, concrete, brick, slate and linseed oil painted surfaces. Provides a water-repellent surface.

The wax is applied in a thin layer with a cloth or sponge. The surface must be clean and dry. Wipe off excess wax after about 15 minutes with a clean cloth. The drying time is 1-2 days and the surface is fully cured after about 1-2 weeks.

A surface treated with linseed oil wax cannot be painted over. In order to paint the surface, the wax must first be removed, for example by sanding.

When applying to new concrete, the recommendation is to first wait a few months for the pH of the concrete to neutralize.

Liquid, unscented wax solution. Intended for the cleaning and protection of hard floors, such as painted wooden floors, stone floors, tiled floors, cork and linoleum carpets and oiled brick floors.
