Tubmarine

January 27, 2020

The Tubmarine, a new wood-fired hot tub has launched in the UK. Combining expert craftsmanship and quality, eco-friendly materials, including Kebony wood, the Tubmarine heats up in under two hours and requires no electricity and little maintenance. The Tubmarine is made from 80% recycled, high-specification parts and materials and directly responds to the growing need for eco-friendly home and outdoor products. Kebony was the only wood selected to clad the Tubmarine, which is manufactured in the UK.

Selecting materials that were sustainable, strong and maintenance-free in equal measure was essential to ensuring the vision for the wood-fired hot tub was realized. In addition to Kebony’s environmental credentials, the wood was a perfect choice for the Tubmarine due to its outdoor lifetime guarantee of more than 30 years. Developed in Norway, Kebony’s revolutionary technology is an environmentally friendly and patented process that modifies sustainably sourced softwoods by heating the wood with furfuryl alcohol – an agricultural byproduct. By polymerizing the wood’s cell wall, the softwoods permanently take on the attributes of tropical hardwood, including high durability and hardness, making it the ideal timber for the Tubmarine.
