Torben Hansen, founder and CEO of Schotten & Hansen.
Schotten & Hansen was founded in Bavaria in 1984 and is known worldwide for its high-quality, renewable wood surfaces and floors. The company creates sustainable, authentic products by combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technology and natural ingredients.
Connected to nature
Torben Hansen has always been fascinated by nature and the natural colour development of surfaces through sunlight, weather, and time. He has spent years researching and experimenting with colours using natural pigments and processes. This journey has resulted in developing a unique Schotten & Hansen colour system based on natural ingredients that is unrivalled in its kind.
‘With Janua, we have a partner who shares our commitment to quality and love of nature with the same passion and mastery.’
Torben Hansen, founder and CEO of Schotten & Hansen.
Naturally resistant protection
An emulsion of natural resins, waxes, and oils protects the wood. This natural protection not only withstands normal wear and tear in private rooms, such as living or sleeping areas, but also prevents the wood surface from being sensitive to moisture. This is why it also works wonderfully in bathrooms, spas, and wellness areas, and yacht interiors.
