Key Benefits of SAWO Sauna Timber

Engineered for Longevity

SAWO timber features long tongue & groove joints that prevent separation over time, ensuring a stable and durable sauna interior.​

Moisture Drain Channels

Efficiently drains condensed vapor behind the cladding, making it suitable for both traditional and combi (Sauna & Steam) saunas.

Sustainable & Environmentally Friendly

Made from smaller trees harvested from second-growth forests and plantations, reducing waste and promoting eco-friendly manufacturing.

Enhanced Strength & Stability

Opposing grain lines reduce the tendency of wood to cup or warp, while high-quality laminations increase strength and flexibility, minimizing stress cracks.
