Oslo presents the driest living conditions in this directory. A long heating season, often underfloor heating, and well-insulated homes result in indoor air humidity below 25 percent for months. Those placing solid wood furniture here must be aware of this.
Underfloor heating and solid wood do not combine well
When heated from below, a solid wood table dries out faster than through room air alone. Veneered panels on a stable substrate are clearly advantageous here, as is stone >> oak and marble. If you prefer solid wood, you should ensure air humidity between 40 and 60 percent and avoid placing the table directly over a heating circuit.
Rugs over underfloor heating
Thick, densely woven rugs insulate and impede heat emission. This is not a prohibition, but a note: flatter woven qualities allow more heat to pass through and are a better choice over heated floors.
Norway is outside the EU
For delivery, this means customs duties and import taxes, which are borne by the recipient, and a few extra days at the border. For larger shipments, it is worthwhile to bundle items into one delivery rather than several, as each shipment is cleared individually.
Shipping to Oslo
We deliver to Oslo. The price depends on the shipping weight, which for furniture is calculated from dimensions and packaging. Zone: Europe outside the EU. The prices are gross prices.

Freight forwarding goods are delivered curbside. This means: to the curb in front of the address, not into the apartment or the room of installation. If you require delivery to an upper floor, please arrange this locally; this page provides information on what to consider.
Import: Norway is outside the EU. In addition to shipping costs, customs duties and import VAT are borne by the recipient. With preparation, this extends delivery by a few days.
The complete table with all weight categories can be found under Shipping and Delivery, and the timeframes under Delivery Time.
