Our Designs
Our Woods
Why do we prefer Aspen, Alder, Nordic Pine, Hemlock, Cedar and Fir for the manufacture of our saunas? For its origin ... North America and northern Europe as well as for the quality they present to us.
These woods come from trees that live in extreme weather. They spend winters at -30ºC and summers at + 26ºC. These contrasts accustom our woods from a young age to overcome strong expansions and contractions and therefore are the ones chosen for the manufacture of our saunas.
ASPEN
From northern and western North America. Soft white in color. Straight fiber, very strong and heat resistant. Heat-resistant wood thanks to its molecular structure. 70 years of growth before the cut.
HEMLOCK
From the West Coast of North America. From Canada. Light brown. Straight fiber, sometimes somewhat wavy. Noble and without tendency to deform. Heat and humidity resistant. It is aromatic. Being of first quality it does not present knots. It is not resinous.
THERMO ASPEN
Aspen treated at more than 200ºC and tempered to 3 pressure atoms. After treatment you receive this unique color.
FIR TREE
