FINLANDIA AND SPRINGS SAUNA COMPANY ARE THE ONLY SAUNA COMPANIES IN THE U.S. WHO OFFER A CHOICE OF WORLD'S BEST SAUNA WOODS

Springs Sauna Company does not use inexpensive woods such as knotty spruce, which has a tendency to cup, shrink, warp, and crack; (and some knots come loose when the pitch and resin around them dries in the high heat of a Sauna). Many European Saunas, however, are built from knotty spruce as it has been the available wood for centuries. Knotty spruce can not be used for benches as it gets too hot, and the knots and pitch can burn the bather; so African Abachi is imported for the benches. Abachi is a clear wood and it is comfortable for sitting; but it has a peculiar, unpleasant odor. Springs Sauna Company uses only clear Western softwoods with the proper matching softwood for benches.

The best known and most widely used of the West Coast Cedars is the Western Red Cedar. It has the most beautiful color variation, has a refreshing aroma, and is dry rot resistant. Because it is the softest wood, it is least hot to sit on or lean against.

Clear Western Hemlock is an excellent wood for people who have wood allergies - it has no aroma and no resin.

Alaskan Yellow Cedar is an exclusive white Cedar with a pungent aroma. It feels almost silky to the touch, and has a beautiful appearance.

Our California Redwood is 100% vertical grain (tight grain to prevent raising and slivering in the high heat), is the most fire resistant, most dry rot resistant, most termite resistant, and does not warp.
