What is Thermal Modification?

With the introduction of our Nordic Barrel Saunas, the concept of Thermal Modification may be of interest to some customers. To put it simply, it is a process of enhancing wood using only heat and steam. With complete modification of every fiber, this process creates unrivaled stability and durability. The benefits are enormous when the final products become superior, and at the same time set the bar for rot resistance and wood longevity in the industry.

Noticeable benefits:

• Wood Longevity

• Rot Resistant

• Stands Up To Moisture

• Termite

• Fire

To summarize, Thermal Modification is a natural way to add strength and stability to our saunas without sacrificing the aesthetic. The final modified boards are a stunning combination of enhanced function, exceptional durability and unparalleled beauty.
