Natural alder mouldings offer excellent sauna performance without resin content. This unique chameleon-like wood transforms beautifully over time, starting as bright white when freshly sawn, then evolving through yellow, orange, dark orange, and finally developing pink and purplish hues as it ages. The color intensification continues throughout the wood’s lifespan. Alder features an attractive natural texture and pleasantly sweet aroma while maintaining excellent durability in sauna conditions. For optimal longevity and appearance retention of this light-colored sauna material, treatment with appropriate sauna protective agents is recommended to preserve its natural beauty.
