Crafted from 100% pure Canadian hempseed oil, Badger Wood Oil offers natural antimicrobial and anti-fungal properties that help resist mould and mildew.

This deep-penetrating, breathable oil is oxidized to harden as it cures—creating a protective, water-resistant finish. It’s environmentally friendly, with no added chemicals or solvents, and dries without harsh fumes or harmful vapours.

Even better, Badger Wood Oil is non-toxic and food-safe – not for your salad, but safe for food-contact items like wooden cutting boards and butcher blocks. And of course, that means it’s ideal for your wooden canoe paddles too. Safe for your family, safe for the environment, and safe for the lakes you paddle in.

More about Hemp:

Our Badger Wood Oil is not only GMO-free and organic, but also comes from hemp grown without pesticides. On top of that, hemp’s deep roots play a crucial role in soil regeneration. They not only extract nutrients from deeper soil layers, making them available for the plant and subsequent crops, but also contributes to improved soil structure and water infiltration. Hemp also aids in carbon sequestration, absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere and storing it in the plant’s biomass. 

Historically, hempseed oil was the base of choice in the paint industry—until prohibition sidelined its use for decades. We’re proud to say that, just over 15 years ago, we helped to reintroduced hempseed oil to the paddling community, sparking its return to the hands and hearts of makers, paddlers, and bushcrafters alike.

From interiors to exteriors, paddles to gunwales, axes to knives, floors to decks, butcher blocks to tables, and countertops to furniture – Badger Wood Oil offers natural protection for every piece of wood it touches.
