Finnish wood panels

Environmental Response

The Finnish panels are pre-cut, and supplemented by wood fiber insulation and non-treated siding, and are delivered preassembled. The façades is also constructed out of wood panels, with a very efficient wood fiber insulation system which completely allows the elimination of thermal bridges, greatly reducing heating and cooling costs of the building.
