Garden furniture is exposed to changing weather, UV rays, and moisture throughout the year. Without proper care, outdoor timber can become dry, grey, or cracked over time.

Available now at OakCrafts, Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is a high-quality product designed to protect and maintain hardwood and softwood furniture. Whether you have teak benches, oak chairs, or acacia tables, this easy-to-apply oil provides the protection your outdoor furniture needs.
What is Osmo Garden Furniture Oil?
Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is a microporous wood finish made from natural plant oils and waxes. It is specifically developed for use on exterior wood and helps protect against weathering, water, and UV damage. The oil penetrates the wood’s surface, creating a breathable finish that won't crack, peel, or flake.
Key Features:
- Ideal for hardwood and softwood garden furniture
- Protects against greying and weathering
- Water and dirt-resistant
- Microporous finish allows wood to breathe
- Easy to apply with a brush or cloth
- Available in clear or tinted options
Why Use Garden Furniture Oil?
Using a dedicated garden furniture oil helps maintain the structural integrity and visual appeal of your outdoor seating, tables, and benches. Without treatment, timber will gradually become brittle, lose colour, and develop surface cracks. Osmo Garden Furniture Oil helps prevent this by nourishing the wood and providing a protective layer that repels moisture and UV rays.
Unlike some synthetic coatings, Osmo’s natural oil-based formula enhances the grain and tone of the wood without forming a thick surface film. This helps the furniture retain a natural, matt or satin finish that feels pleasant to the touch.
Application Guide
Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is designed for ease of use. Follow these simple steps for best results:
- Prepare the surface: Clean the wood and ensure it is dry and free from previous finishes. Sand lightly if needed.
- Apply the oil: Stir well, then apply a thin coat with a brush or lint-free cloth. Work along the grain.
- Allow to dry: Leave to dry for 12 hours in a well-ventilated area.
- Apply second coat: For added protection, apply a second coat using the same method.
Only a small amount of oil is needed for each coat. One litre typically covers up to 24m² with one coat, depending on wood species and surface condition.
When to Apply
It is recommended to apply Osmo Garden Furniture Oil in spring or early summer when the weather is dry and mild. This allows the oil to cure properly and prepares your furniture for the peak outdoor season. Regular reapplication every 1–2 years will help maintain protection and appearance.
Perfect for Teak, Acacia, Oak and More
Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is particularly effective on dense hardwoods such as teak, iroko, and eucalyptus, which are commonly used for outdoor furniture. It can also be used on pine, larch, and other softwoods. Whether you are refreshing an old bench or protecting a newly purchased table set, this product delivers a reliable, low-maintenance solution.
