Description

These RESPECT series bench boards by Finnmark Sauna pair the standard SHP seating profile, a rectangular section of 28 × 120 mm with R4 (4 mm) radiused corners, with a lamellar construction that improves stability, extends the lifespan of the raw material and allows a more flexible range of dimensions than traditional manufacturing. Alder, a favourite in traditional saunas, has a light brown colour with warm pink undertones and a subtle scent of freshly cut hay; it does not overheat, repels water and carries a low risk of twisting and warping. Each pack contains four boards in your chosen length of 2,100 mm or 2,400 mm, and the 28 mm thickness helps prevent warping and twisting over time. The boards suit a self-build bench, our Sauna Bench Fabrication Service can make up a complete bench system, and we recommend finishing the wood with sauna paraffin oil, sold separately, which slightly deepens its colour.

Timber

Alder is a popular choice in traditional saunas for its natural qualities and low risk of twisting and warping. It has a light brown colour with warm pink undertones and a subtle scent reminiscent of freshly cut hay; it does not overheat and has water-repellent properties, suiting hot and humid environments.

Using the product

These boards suit a self-build sauna bench, and our Sauna Bench Fabrication Service can make up a complete bench system to your design. Fix the boards with stainless steel fixings and leave small ventilation gaps between them, so air can circulate and the timber can move naturally in sauna heat.

Quality & Wastage

Our alder sauna timber is A-grade: durable, knot-free and at low risk of splintering. The general grading standards for sauna wood apply to this timber. As a natural product, timber shows some colour variation between packs and batches. We recommend a wastage allowance of 15% for alder SHP bench boards, which also allows for any damage that can occur in transit. Lifestyle images are representational only; the finished look of a sauna varies with the width and placement of the bench boards.

Care

We recommend treating the boards with sauna paraffin oil, sold separately, which slightly deepens the colour of the wood.

Ordering & Delivery

Sauna timber is delivered on a palletised service, with shipping calculated at checkout; rates vary between UK Mainland, Highland and Island postcodes and deliveries may be kerbside. Lengths above 2,400 mm increase shipping costs significantly. If we hold a longer board than the length you need, our cutting service can cut it down for a small fee, with the off-cut added to the pallet; contact our customer service team to arrange longer lengths or cutting.
