Wood is a natural, warm and versatile material. Careful protection by a quality stain enhances its resistance and durability.
Our stain acts like a shield. The stain’s natural oils and resins seep into the wood’s cellular structure to form a durable protective barrier.
With the introduction of water-based stain products, Martin is a forerunner that constantly continues its efforts to support sustainable development.
Our colour chart offers 30 lovely colours that enhance the wood’s natural richness. Factory applied, our stain is protected by two coats of varnish giving it a satin sheen.

The best warm edge spacer in the world:
Swisspacer Ultimate
It has the best thermal value in the world with a 20% reduction in thermal conductivity compared to the best product currently available on the market.
When evaluating energy performance ratings for your doors and windows, in addition to adhering to Energy Star’s standards, it is important to refer to the harmonized standard set by the North American Fenestration Standard (NAFS). The NAFS specification is more commonly known under the name of “structural performance tests.”
As well as evaluating air and water tightness, the NAFS standard evaluates a door or window’s resistance to natural elements such as strong winds.
In Canada, the standard’s minimum requirements are determined according to your region and its weather conditions.
Prior to purchase, it is important to confirm the minimum required Performance Grade (PG) for your region and the surroundings of your home (location, product height, type of land, etc.).
Easily get your minimum PG with the Fenestration Canada’s performance calculator.
