Behind the scenes: How Auroom creates world-class saunas

06.03.2025

At Auroom, saunas aren’t just structures—they are carefully crafted wellness spaces designed to nurture both body and mind. From the very first design sketch to final assembly, every Auroom sauna is built with care, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality and comfort.

As one of Europe’s leading sauna manufacturers, we bring together expert designers, skilled craftsmen, and state-of-the-art technology to create saunas that fit seamlessly into homes, spas, and wellness spaces across the world.

From vision to reality: How your sauna is made

Every sauna begins with you—your vision, your space, and your needs. Whether it’s a ready-made model or a custom sauna tailored to a specific project, our process ensures precision at every stage.

The journey starts when a client reaches out to an Auroom distributor, who helps define the project scope and preferences. If a custom solution is needed, our design team develops detailed technical plans and 3D renderings if requested. At this stage, every component is carefully considered, from wood type and panelling to bench layouts and lighting configurations, ensuring that every element aligns with the client’s expectations.

Once the design is approved, our engineering team refines every detail, preparing precise cut lists, material selections, and structural plans. Then the project moves into production. Our goal is always to provide a sauna that reflects luxury, functionality, and exceptional quality.

The craftsmanship behind every sauna

To build Auroom saunas, we use both thermally modified and natural timber, carefully choosing the material that best suits each project.

Thermally modified wood is valued for its stability, longevity, and beautiful rich tones, making it highly resistant to humidity and fluctuations in temperature. As part of the Thermory Group, we have access to the finest thermally modified wood, ensuring our saunas are resistant to moisture, temperature changes, and wear over long time. This results in a sauna that is long-lasting and sustainable. On the other hand, natural timber, when carefully selected, offers a unique grain, a distinctive natural aroma, and excellent heat performance, bringing an authentic touch to the sauna experience.

By choosing the right materials for each sauna and treating them with oil or wax, we ensure both functionality and aesthetics—allowing every sauna to provide a lasting, sensory-rich wellness experience.

Our production process begins with precision cutting, using state-of-the-art CNC machines to shape every component with absolute accuracy. This technology allows us to create seamless joints, smooth finishes, and intricate details that make Auroom saunas stand out. But while modern technology plays a crucial role, true craftsmanship is what brings each sauna to life. Skilled artisans meticulously assemble benches, fit wall panels, and refine every surface by hand, ensuring that each sauna is as flawless as it is functional.

Before a sauna is approved for shipment, it undergoes rigorous quality control. Each sauna is fully assembled and tested in our facility to ensure that every part fits perfectly and functions seamlessly. This full pre-assembly process allows us to catch any imperfections early and guarantees that every sauna leaving our hands meets our high-quality standards.

From our workshop to your wellness space

To make global distribution seamless, we use a flat-pack shipping concept, allowing saunas to be transported efficiently without compromising quality. After the sauna passes its final inspection, it is carefully dismantled and packed into secure boxes, ensuring that it arrives at its destination in perfect condition.

This assembly concept has several advantages. It significantly reduces transportation costs, minimizes environmental impact, and allows us to ship saunas all over the world. Once the sauna reaches its destination, our trusted dealers handle the assembly process, ensuring that everything is put together exactly as it was designed. This way, whether an Auroom sauna is installed in a private home, a boutique spa, or a high-end resort, it maintains the same precision, durability, and beauty as it had when it left our workshop.

A modern approach to sauna manufacturing

Efficiency is key to maintaining both high-quality production and timely delivery, which is why we’ve implemented a modern ERP system to streamline our entire production process. Our operations are entirely paperless, with work orders and updates managed digitally across all departments. It allows us to track every stage of production in real time, providing our team with the ability to make quick, data-driven decisions. This efficiency helps us respond quickly to customer needs, optimize material usage, and deliver saunas that meet our high standards for both craftsmanship and sustainability.

Your sauna, your way

We understand that every client and every space is unique. While we offer a wide range of ready-made indoor and outdoor sauna models which can be modified to your preferance, we also specialize in custom-designed saunas, tailored to fit your specific needs, style, and surroundings. 5 tips for designing the perfect sauna
