Discover the Most Effective Way to Preserve Moss
Why is Moss Preservation Difficult?
Preserving moss in-house can be a challenging task that requires careful attention to detail and specific environmental conditions. While the process may seem straightforward, there are several factors that can make it difficult to achieve successful moss preservation.
Have you ever wondered how moss is preserved in-house at Nôi Studio? Let's take a closer look at the meticulous process involved in ensuring that the moss remains vibrant and beautiful for your indoor decor.
Cleaning Moss
Freshly harvested moss needs to undergo a thorough cleaning process to remove any grass, debris, soil, rocks, or sand clinging to its stems and roots. This initial treatment is crucial to ensure that the moss surface will effectively absorb the preserving agents in the following steps.
Disinfection
Due to its porous and moisture-retaining structure, moss provides an ideal environment for mold growth in damp conditions. After the cleaning process, Nôi Studio subjects the moss to a heat treatment to ensure maximum disinfection. This step helps eliminate any potential contaminants and ensures the longevity of the preserved moss.
Color Treatment & Elasticity
Following the heat treatment, the moss may lose its color and moisture content, causing it to shrink, become more brittle, and prone to breakage. To address this, the preservation specialist applies a preserving compound to restore the moss's color and elasticity.
Preservation
Once the moss has been treated for disinfection, color, and elasticity, it is ready for the preservation process. The preserving agents used at Nôi Studio help maintain the moss's natural beauty, texture, and vibrancy, ensuring that it remains a stunning addition to your indoor space.
By following these meticulous steps, Nôi Studio is able to preserve moss effectively, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of nature in your home or office for an extended period. The process combines scientific precision with artistic vision to create a harmonious blend of nature and design.
