Eläintukki

Eläintukki is a Finnish term that translates to "animal log" or "animal timber." It refers to a specific type of Finnish forestry product, typically logs that are used for animal husbandry purposes. These logs are often less processed than those destined for lumber or pulp, with the primary function being to provide durable and natural materials for building animal enclosures, stalls, or shelters. The type of wood used can vary, but pine and spruce are common choices due to their availability and strength. Eläintukki is valued for its natural properties and rustic aesthetic, fitting well into agricultural and rural settings. The selection and preparation of eläintukki are generally focused on ensuring the logs are sound and free from significant defects that could compromise their structural integrity or pose a risk to animals. This product plays a role in traditional and modern Finnish farming practices where natural building materials are preferred.
