Quality and Craftsmanship
Meet our Wood Family
A beautiful hypoallergenic wood, the preferred choice for sensitivities or allergies. It doesn’t emit fragrances and is completely safe for those with allergies, though a new sauna may smell of fresh-cut wood. Consistent in color containing few knots. A durable hardwood not likely to warp or bend with temperature changes. Perfect for commercial use. Sourced in the U.S. FSC-certified (comes from sustainably managed forest.)
We’re Involved Every Step of the Way
Sunlighten manufactures our saunas in Vietnam, and we are the ONLY sauna manufacturer in the world that is directly involved in every step of the production process. Every element of a Sunlighten sauna is designed with quality and safety in mind. We don’t believe in shortcuts. We’re constantly working with designers, engineers, and scientists to research and develop cutting-edge products.
Sunlighten is the ONLY sauna manufacturer in the world that is directly involved in every step of production.
Premium Wood Selection
We hand-select and kiln-dry eco-friendly wood. This process takes several weeks. It adds heat and moisture to prevent cracking. Natural wood has many different hues and directions of grain. We match color and grains to ensure each sauna retains its natural beauty.
Quality Framework
We construct our framework with 100% solid, non-toxic wood. That’s why our saunas weigh twice that of our competitors’ saunas. We start with extra-thick tongue-and-groove boards and sand from 10mm to 8mm, better than the industry standard of 8mm sanded to 5mm. Small changes add up to big differences in quality and longevity.
Cut, Assembly & Testing
We precision cut each panel with a CNC (computerized numerical control) machine. At this stage, we assemble each sauna cabin and check it meets our quality craftsmanship standards.
Electrical Install & Testing
We install ETL-certified components including wiring and electronics. Then, we seal the sauna exterior with non-toxic coating and a natural finish.
Final Quality Check
We assemble each sauna one last time to test electrical components and EMF levels. Lastly, we wrap and carefully pack every component in 2-3 mattress-sized boxes and ship to our warehouse in the United Kingdom.
Delivered to Your Door
We take the same care with delivery to your door. Many large shipments are delivered by a lift gate to curbside. We go the extra mile to ensure your Sunlighten sauna is delivered by two men to your garage or first dry location.
Seamless Design & Easy Assembly
The subtle detail of flush design makes assembly simple, optimises sauna performance, extends its life and creates a pleasing simple aesthetic. Magne-Seal™, our patented magnetic locking system, eliminates unsightly clips, buckles, and screws. Hidden magnets in the sauna walls snap together, making set-up and take-down quick and easy. It creates a better seal between the walls than traditional fasteners, keeping heat in and cold out. Magne-Seal prevents cracking and warping, allowing wood expansion and contraction. A Sunlighten sauna is a great investment for your health and your wallet.
