and the Drying Process

HONKA Log Wall options: Solid Round walls are from 6” to 9” in diameter Laminated Round Logs up to 10” diameter Solid Rectangular Logs Laminated Rectangular Logs up to 8” x 10”

HONKA uses only wood from straight postured Finnish Polar Pine, which grows in the clean and renewable forests of Finland near the artic circle. Only the best quality, mature trees are selected.

After harvesting the trees, the logs are kiln dried which helps prevent undesirable twisting, warping, or checking.

All HONKA logs utilize the same wedged log techniques. The bottom of the log has sharp machined wedges that fit tightly in the top of the log underneath. The energy efficiency and tightness of HONKA’s patented wedged logs has been further improved by developing wedged notches into cross corners. These product improvements make HONKA’s walls approximately three times more energy efficient than traditionally scribed walls.

Formed HONKA round logs hive the finishing touch to the appearance of a HONKA Log wall. When a round log is planed flat by the windows and doors, it improves the fit and appearance of the decorative trim work and enhances the efficiency and beauty of your home.
