Finnish home design innovator Asumma has officially announced a strategic partnership with HOISKO CLT, a leading manufacturer of cross-laminated timber (CLT) elements. This collaboration marks a significant step toward accelerating sustainable, high-quality wooden housing in Finland and beyond.
HOISKO CLT, known for its high-performance massive wood elements, brings decades of expertise and innovation in wood construction. Based in the village of Hoisko in Southern Ostrobothnia, the company produces carbon-neutral CLT elements made entirely from PEFC-certified Finnish spruce wood, ensuring environmental responsibility and traceability.
“We are proud to collaborate with HOISKO CLT, whose commitment to quality, sustainability, and innovation perfectly aligns with Asumma’s vision of next-generation timber homes,” said a spokesperson from Asumma.
Together, Asumma and HOISKO CLT have already delivered several successful wooden house and villa projects across the Helsinki Capital Region, showcasing the synergy between advanced architectural design and cutting-edge wood engineering.
🪵 What Makes HOISKO CLT Elements Unique?
HOISKO CLT’s elements are:
- 100% Finnish spruce (C24 strength class), ensuring superior load-bearing capacity and structural integrity.
- Produced using edge-gluing techniques—eliminating the need for vapor barriers and creating beautiful, smooth interior surfaces.

🌱 Why Build a Home Using HOISKO CLT?
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is quickly becoming the material of choice for eco-conscious building due to its:
- Low carbon footprint — trees absorb CO₂ as they grow, which remains stored in the wood even after processing.
- Energy efficiency — high insulation value reduces heating and cooling costs.
- Precision fabrication — factory-made elements reduce on-site waste, time, and energy.
- Durability — performs well in harsh climates and requires minimal maintenance.
- Natural beauty — exposed CLT surfaces offer a warm, modern aesthetic.
Whether you’re building a villa, wooden house, or summer cottage, Asumma and HOISKO CLT offer a durable, breathable, and beautiful solution rooted in Finnish design and sustainability.
