FINNISH PINE
A NATURAL CHOICE
Because Finnish pine grows slowly,

its wood is exceptionally dense and hard,
particularly the heartwood.
The raw material used for Honka log houses

comes from PEFC-certified Finnish forests
where more wood grows than is harvested.
A modern log house is a truly ecological

choice. It is an effective CO² sink and thus
helps prevent the impacts of climate change.
The entire chain from natural forests to a
healthy house where generations can live
is completely sustainable.
