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 m
anufacturing: 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
