Tylö Sauna And Steam.
Tylö is the world’s leading manufacturer of sauna and steam rooms.
Based in Sweden, the only country in the world where they take the art of sauna bathing even more seriously than in Finland, the company was founded over 60 years ago by Sven-Olof Janson and is named after the Tylö Sands, an area local to Halmstadt where the business first began.
Tylö saunas and steam rooms are sold in over 90 countries making the Tylö / Helo group the biggest sauna manufacturer in the world. For any company to have such a grip on a global market demonstrates their commitment to product quality and innovation.
Sven-Olof Janson;
The Founder.
The man who founded Tylö, Sven-Olof Janson, grew up in humble circumstances and perhaps that is why Tylö has always been a company that is carefully managed and why Tylö products are designed with efficiency in mind.
Sven-Olof was an electrical engineer in the Swedish army. When he left the army he began to design and build more efficient heating elements then those available at the time.
The Tylö story began in earnest in 1951 when the Finnish consul, who was living in Halmstad, visited Sven-Olof. This gentleman believed that the sauna heaters that were on the market at the time were far too expensive and inefficient. He asked Sven-Olof if he could improve on the design.
Sven-Olof succeeded in making a sauna heater that satisfied his client and in fact, the Finnish consul was so enthusiastic that Sven-Olof began to see that there could be a significant business opportunity here. There was demand in the market and he had the skills to exploit that.
Although Sven-Olof now had a successful electrical heater manufacturing business making heaters for a range of markets, he remained intrigued by the idea of sauna heaters and continued to design and experiment for the next ten years.
In 1960, Sven-Olof moved into a brand new factory and it was in this new plant that the company that came to be known as Tylö produced its first commercial sauna heaters.
Where Tylö Sauna And Steam Is Today.
Sven-Olof wasn’t content to just make heaters for saunas. He wanted his philosophy of the best design and highest construction standards to apply to the whole sauna experience.
Tylö have developed their thinking and philosophy into a broader view of saunas. No longer simple wooden cabins with a heater and some plain benches, Tylö now epitomise the concept of the health spa in the home.
Relaxation, fitness and health have become increasingly important to people all over the world and Tylö is at the forefront of supplying products to satisfy that market trend.
Tylö saunas are designed to fit in with and complement the most luxurious bathrooms just as well as they perform as separate sauna installations. Glass doors and panels, curves and detailing produce a sauna that is as good to look at as it is to use.
A central concept in the Tylö vision is ‘For the senses’ and that leads them to a unique view of the future of sauna where they are integrating sauna cabins, steam rooms and showers into the same beautifully designed piece unit.
Although Tylö have come a long way over the last 50 years they are still based in Halmstad and, in a way, that says something about them too; Tylö balance forward-looking design and technology with a strong sense of heritage and tradition.
