Safe and durable log houses
The life span of massive wood houses is very long. A log building may last for hundreds of years when it has been designed and built correctly to protect it from humidity and extreme weather conditions. Honka has unrivalled expertise based on years of research and testing and supplying over 85,000 log buildings worldwide. Patented Honka technology serves faultlessly in all climates and geographical circumstances.
From raw material to the finished product, Honka stands for high quality and no compromises. We are proud to say that we make some of the most airtight, moisture safe and earthquake resistant homes on the market.
Pioneering log technology
Being the first industrial manufacturer of log houses in the world, Honka has always been at the very forefront of the wood processing industry.
Using cutting-edge production technology, Honka processes the wood into the best possible construction material for houses that will endure even extreme conditions. The high level of automation in production helps ensure that the woodwork behind every Honka house is dimensionally accurate, which makes the on-site installation and building processes quick and precise.
Being an industry pioneer isn’t something you achieve once; it has to be earned time and time again. Our continuous research and development efforts are based on our values of furthering healthy, sustainable and safe living.
