Materials

Only honest materials

We source FSC-certified Nordic timber and natural stone. No synthetics, no shortcuts.

Pine
Mänty

The classic Finnish sauna wood. Warm, fragrant resin scent, excellent heat properties. Ideal for benches and walls.

Black Alder
Leppä

Smooth, dark, and elegant. Stays cool to the touch even at high temperatures — perfect for bench surfaces.

Aspen
Haapa

Light, odourless, hypoallergenic. Recommended for children's saunas and those with sensitive skin.

Soapstone
Talkki

Exceptional heat retention, smooth to the touch. Used for kiuas cladding, floors, and feature walls.

Copper
Kupari

Used for water buckets, ladles, and accessories. Ages beautifully to a warm patina over time.

Tempered Glass
Lasi

For modern sauna doors and partitions. Heat-resistant, frameless designs for a clean, open feel.
