Wood creates a warm look in the bathroom

Wood is a versatile material that offers a wide range of advantages. If you choose local wood varieties, it is a very sustainable material that makes living spaces feel warm and inviting. Wood is a durable and robust material that also ages beautifully.


It is worth noting that wood can have a positive effect on the indoor climate, by absorbing water vapour in the bathroom and then releasing it again when the air is drier. In addition, unlike plastic, real wood has antibacterial properties.

Can you use wood in the bathroom?

The advantages mentioned above make wood a popular choice for the bathroom. You can choose from different varieties and colours of wood. Oak and walnut are very popular. MDF or chipboard with a wood look are slightly cheaper.


High moisture levels in the bathroom can cause mould to form on untreated wood. It is therefore important to ensure that wood for the bathroom is treated to prevent water penetration. Any pools of water on the wood should always be wiped up immediately.
