The Story Behind Rubio Monocoat

Rubio Monocoat is a pioneer in the hardwax oil industry. Known for being the first to create an oil with no water or VOCs, Rubio changed the game in wood finishing. Their one-coat system offers lasting protection, eco-friendly ingredients, and a stunning look. Over time, they expanded into a full range of Rubio Monocoat colors and products that match every taste and style. One of the standout features of Rubio Monocoat is its 0% penetrating oil formula, which allows it to fully penetrate and bond with the wood, providing long-lasting protection and a beautiful finish. In addition to its hardwax oil colors, Rubio Monocoat also offers pre-treatment options that allow you to create a custom look for your project. The beautiful wood work found in many Boise homes is an excellent canvas for the Rubio products.

The Beginning 1
The Beginning

Rubio’s story started under the name Muylle Falcon LTD, founded in 1906 as a mastic producer. By 1966, the company had expanded internationally. In the 1980s, the focus shifted toward chemical innovations and wood preservation using molecular binding technology. This laid the groundwork for the revolutionary products to come.

Under the leadership of Benoit Muylle, the company focused on creating a wood finish that was:

  • Free from water and VOCs
  • Economical and easy to apply
  • Protective in just one coat
  • Made with natural ingredients

In 2005, Rubio Monocoat was launched. It was the only hard wax oil that met these strict green standards. This product set a new benchmark in the industry.

Innovation didn’t stop there. Rubio Monocoat continued to push forward with:

  • A 2-component oil that dries faster
  • Rebranding from Muylle Falcon to Rubio Monocoat
  • An outdoor lineup with 0% VOC oils launched in 2009

Rubio Monocoat Hardwax Oil

In Boise, ID, residents will find that Hardwax Oil offers a distinct alternative to the typical stains and finishes commonly used in the United States. This unique hard wax oil deeply penetrates into the wood, providing robust protection from within. The application process involves using a trowel to apply the oil, followed by buffing it into the floor. Notably, Hardwax Oil is comprised of 100% solids, which means a significantly smaller amount is required to cover a floor compared to traditional flooring finishes. Rubio Monocoat hardwax oil, in particular, stands out with its matte finish, lending a distinctive and elegant look to any floor.

Rubio Monocoat Company History

Rubio Monocoat has established itself as a trailblazer in the hardwax oil industry, notably as the first to launch a water-free and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)-free oil. Originating in 1906 as Muylle Falcon LTD, the company initially specialized in mastic production before diversifying into creating specialized chemical industry products. By the 1980s, the team at Muylle Falcon had shifted their focus towards developing advanced wood preservative products using molecular binding technology.

Under Benoit Muylle’s guidance, the company pivoted towards technological innovation and in 2000, rebranded as Rubio Monocoat. This marked a new direction with the aim to develop a wood preservative devoid of water, VOCs, and other detrimental chemicals. Achieving this goal, Rubio Monocoat introduced its signature hardwax oil in 2005, fulfilling Benoit’s vision of a product that was environmentally friendly, easy to use, and durable. Expanding its range, in 2009, the company added an outdoor oil with 0% VOCs to its lineup, continuing its trajectory of innovation and growth.

Rubio Monocoat has since grown into a global entity, operating in 41 countries with a team of 150 employees. Its headquarters are situated in Austin, Texas, and in 2016, the company expanded with a new site in Belgium. Dedicated to constant innovation, Rubio Monocoat is focused on developing new products and broadening its range of colors and finishes to cater to a diverse customer base.
