KASTOR WOOD BURNING SAUNA STOVES

We thank you for your confidence in Kastor’s products. We have manufactured wood burning

sauna stoves for nearly a century now, longer than any other company in the world. Over

these years, we have learned a lot about fire, its handling and its precariousness. Anyone

can light a fire, but nurturing it is nearly a form of art. We have two guidelines in design

and manufacturing: A master’s touch leaves nothing extraneous and a master’s touch

cannot be achieved with low grade material. Our products are simple and reliable,

although their elegant form is based on solutions born from decades of experience and

the latest technology.

QUALITY MATERIAL

Our products contain only the best possible material, procured from reliable suppliers we

have gathered over the years. The steel is Finnish structural steel from Ruukki, which can

be bent into various solutions while retaining its hardness due to its uniform quality. Our

glass covers are Ceram glass, which can withstand up to 800 °C while still allowing the

fire’s warm glow to spread into the room.

WE KNOW FIRE

Our products are heavy, which by itself is a sign of fireproof construction. Still, it is not the

steel’s thickness but its correct use that is important. One needs to know how fire

behaves. The hottest and most stressed part is not necessarily directly above the fire,

depending on how the heat is being channelled. The fire must also be supplied with air to

ensure optimally clean burning and economical heating.

SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY

Our stoves can be fully heated with just one load of wood and they retain warmth long after

the flame has died down. This unique property is the sum of many factors: High quality

material, the Coanda- air circulation system, the large and deep stone compartments and

the sturdy doors. Read more about these and our other technical innovations as well as
