It’s impossible to overestimate the importance of wood in sauna construction. Each type of wood has specific characteristics. Choosing types which are best suited for the sauna is crucial – and can determine whether or not you feel comfortable and happy in the sauna. And expert craftsmanship of this product of nature is of equal importance – because ultimately, it’s the wood that exerts perhaps the strongest influence over the climate in the sauna. The sturdy, knot-free wood of Canadian hemlock is perfect for saunas and SANARIUM®. Even when subjected to extreme conditions, it doesn’t warp. It also radiates heat very evenly.

We offer a wide range of real wood veneer panels to ensure each sauna is able to blend harmoniously with its surroundings. Softwoods are ideal for sauna benches, since these do not splinter or secrete resin, and have a low level of thermal conductivity.
