A Long Tradition

It’s difficult to say exactly when man first stepped into a wooden bath. All that we can say is that the wooden bath has a long and rich tradition. In bathhouses, wooden tubs were popular for bathing and as a therapeutic means. The modern use as we know it today dates back over hundreds of years.

In the 20th Century however, cheaper metal and synthetic materials came to prominence, until the point where almost every household had its own bathtub.

The concept of a wooden bath may seem like a strange one today, but it is in fact one of the purest and most comfortable forms of bathing. And this is perhaps why the wooden bath is now beginning to attract a great deal of attention.

 

The wooden bathtub has started to become popular once again as home owners and spas rethink their bathroom designs. 

Hansjakob Wetli was the first person in Switzerland to start manufacturing wooden bathtubs again. The modern bath differs from the more traditional bucket-shaped tub in its segmental approach to production, which has been made possible thanks to a new type of bonding. This results in greater comfort and produces a smooth and seamless surface to bathe in.
