TAIVE sauna benches, made in Finland, are a durable and stylish choice for any sauna. These modern benches are designed to be sleek and sturdy, requiring no separate support legs underneath. Each bench is custom-built using TAIVE modules to meet individual preferences and accommodate the unique features of the sauna. The sculpted benches add a sense of individuality and a refined look to the sauna.
We manufacture high-quality sauna benches from domestic raw materials in our own carpentry workshop in Espoo, Finland. In addition to the low carbon footprint of our products, all of our products have been awarded the Key Flag symbol as a proof of their Finnish origin.
We use domestic birch plywood, which can be surface veneered with either warm-toned Hemlock, natural CWP Koivu (birch) or grey-toned CWP Kelo. The material can also be tinted with the desired shade. All gluing is done with a weather resistant D4 class adhesive with an M1 emission rating. This construction ensures very good stress resistance and low moisture absorption.
Keeping your TAIVE sauna clean is effortless. The floor is easy to wipe, even beneath the benches, as TAIVE benches do not require separate support legs. The seat and backrest modules, as well as the lower bench platforms, can be easily detached for cleaning.
Each bench is carefully finished with a protective wax in our woodworking shop, so there is no need for the customer to treat the surfaces before use.
Surface Treatment:
The protective treatment is applied by hand with great care. Due to the natural grain of the wood, slight color variations may occur on the surface.
TAIVE bench solutions are structurally robust, resembling more the products of furniture industry. The bench frames are assembled with dowel joints, with dowel pins and nuts. The massive wood material usually slightly shrinks in the sauna heat and this often loosens up the joints or causes unpleasant creak or even breakages of the benches. TAIVE bench frame is made of Finnish birch veneer with minimal deformation. Any looseness in frame joints can be easily tightened with a hex key.
The bench bracket is a special joist hanger, made of acid-proof stainless steel. The construction of the bracket prevents the displacement of the bench bracket and therefore these sauna benches cannot fall off the wall. The construction and material of the bench brackets also prevent any unpleasant creaks.
Our selection of sauna shades is designed to accommodate various tastes and styles. The benches are crafted from high-quality Finnish birch veneer, and you can choose from the following surface veneer options:
We also offer five additional shade options to further customize the look of your benches. All shades beautifully highlight the natural grain of the wood, enhancing its unique character.
To support you in the decision-making process, you can request free samples of your preferred shades free of charge — helping you choose the one that best suits your sauna.
A successful sauna build starts with precise planning and correct sizing of the sauna benches. We design each sauna individually, taking into account the customer's wishes and measurements to ensure a functional and aesthetically pleasing result.
You can begin the planning process by visiting our virtual 3D showroom online. Our physical showroom is located in Espoo, Finland.
Additionally, you have access to a convenient sauna design tool that helps you sketch out your design and provides a preliminary cost estimate.
