In line with the trend towards natural and sustainable surfaces, Ostermann has just launched a new natural surface called “Moss”. An eye-catching design within private interiors, public buildings and retail shops alike, the flexible panels with an overlay of real, naturally preserved moss, are supplied reliably and quickly by Ostermann in three colours.
Moss is a unique natural product. In the forest, the natural water reservoir and filter is an important part of an intact ecosystem. Its intense colour, unique look and soft feel also make it an interesting material for the design of interiors or sales areas. Ostermann’s new “Moss” natural surface allows carpenters/cabinet makers to apply real moss in private or commercial interiors. It comes in three shades of green and on a flexible carpet backing measuring 580 x 380mm.
The moss panels score with their natural properties, such as sound absorption of up to 60% and humidity regulation in the room. They can easily be attached to furniture, walls or ceilings and, thanks to their flexibility, can also be used for demanding applications in shopfitting and trade fair construction.
All information on this product can be found under the search term “#moss” on the Ostermann website www.ostermann.eu. In addition, the company sends original samples on request.
100% natural moss – 100% handmade, 100% maintenance-free
The moss used is gently harvested with environmental protection and sustainability in mind. It is then cleaned and prepared. UV-resistant, cosmetic colours produce the product’s beautiful and intense colour. The entire process, from harvesting to processing and dispatch, is carried out 100% by hand. Once the finished moss has been applied to the substrate, it requires no water and no further care. It is hygienic and antibacterial and is therefore even suitable for the catering sector. The moss also regulates the air humidity naturally. Room humidity should be between 40 % and 70 %.
Simple processing
The moss panels are delivered individually packed in cardboard. They can be cut quickly and easily with scissors or a cutter knife and optionally stapled or screwed. The moss surface can be enlarged at will by joining several panels together and, to create a special impression, different shades can be combined on one object.
Ostermann tip
Ostermann also provides a fitting cutter knife for the moss panels, as well as matching spare blades. The cutter knife with blade lock has a particularly sharp and sturdy blade, which is made exclusively from SK-120 premium steel. A unique, multi-stage sharpening technique is used in the production. It is therefore also ideal for cutting gypsum plasterboard, wood, and other thick materials.
