Why Choose Western Red Cedar for Saunas
                           Why Choose Western Red Cedar for Saunas
Barrel saunas are renowned for their unique design and exceptional 
performance. But what truly sets them apart? It often comes down to 
the material—Western Red Cedar, the top choice for sauna construction.
Why Does the Wood Matter?
Saunas operate in hot, humid conditions with constant temperature 
fluctuations. Not all woods can handle this environment without 
warping, cracking, or losing their aesthetic appeal. Western Red Cedar 
excels in these conditions, making it the ideal choice.
Natural Durability
Western Red Cedar is naturally resistant to decay, rot, and insects, 
making it perfect for outdoor barrel saunas. Even in extreme weather, 
cedar remains resilient, requiring minimal maintenance while offering 
impressive longevity. Its structural stability ensures the sauna stays

Cedar's low density prevents it from overheating, ensuring comfortable 
sauna benches even during extended sessions. The wood effectively 
absorbs and releases moisture without degrading, reducing the risk of 
cracking and splitting seen in other materials.
Aromatic and Therapeutic Benefits
Have you ever noticed the delightful 
aroma of a cedar sauna? Western Red 
Cedar naturally emits oils that not only 
create this signature scent but also 
provide antifungal and antibacterial 
properties. These oils purify the air inside 
the sauna, contributing to a cleaner and 
healthier environment.
The soothing fragrance enhances 
relaxation, transforming each session into

and body.
Western Red Cedar stands out for its rich, 
warm tones and natural wood grain. This 
luxurious appearance makes it an inviting 
addition to any space. Over time, 
untreated cedar develops a silver-grey 
patina, adding unique character without 
compromising its durability.
For those who prefer the original color, cedar can be treated to 
maintain its vibrant look. Whether treated or left natural, cedar 
barrel saunas are a stunning focal point in any backyard or home.
Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
Western Red Cedar is sourced from sustainable forests, making it an 
environmentally conscious choice. As a renewable resource, cedar has a 
lower environmental impact compared to synthetic materials or non-
renewable woods.
By choosing cedar, you’re investing in a sauna that aligns with your eco-
friendly values and promotes sustainability.
