The raw material for the log house is machined from Scots Pine, a type of that pine grows in the northern latitudes, and its quality is determined by its slow growth. Scots Pine grows in harsh climatic conditions and ideal soil types, making it excellent for log house building. The raw material comes from forests that are well managed, and sustainable in northern Finland. The main features of Scots Pine are the small knots, high tensile strength, very tight ring formation, and low moisture. This makes Scots Pine naturally darker and is often referred to as redwood. Log house builders appreciate this Scots Pine wood, because of the exceptionally high density at the core of the wood, which makes it durable, and rot-proof. They use this same wood for their roof beams and a large proportion of their wall and roof panels. This Scots Pine timber is supplied by their partner company, Polkky Ltd. Polkky was the first Finnish wood processing company that was awarded the PEFC certification as proof that their wood is only sourced from certified forests and that the origin of the wood can always be demonstrated.
