Materials and construction of an outdoor sauna
Wood is at the heart of sauna construction.
The high-end models use Nordic wood , known for its density and strength. The solid cladding guarantees insulation and stability, while the interior remains unfinished to avoid any fumes at high temperatures.
Roofs can be flat, sloped, or covered with bitumen strips. The key is to ensure perfect waterproofing against rain and snow. Models with double-pitched roofs or vertical cladding blend elegantly into a modern outdoor environment.
Inside, the benches , headrests and backrests are made from softer woods such as linden, which remains cool to the touch.
Volcanic stones complete the installation, allowing optimal muscle relaxation.
