Zenwood

Every Grain is Unique. Every Space Too.

At Zenwood, we believe in the beauty of the unrepeatable. That’s why we treat each piece of wood as a living work of art.

We specialize in the manufacturing and distribution of Yakisugi charred wood—masters of the ancient Shou Sugi Ban technique, with many years of experience in the preparation and treatment of wood for facades, terraces, fences and interiors. We guarantee a long-lasting result of the highest quality. Our goal is to help you create a welcoming and sustainable environment.

We supply wood treated using the Japanese technique known as “Yakisugi” or “Shou Sugi Ban”. This is a natural way of preserving wood, offering protection against the elements along with a distinctive and elegant appearance.

Thanks to the growing trend of using natural materials, the pursuit of sustainable solutions, and the increasing concern for environmental preservation, this technique—already recognized in many countries—is rapidly gaining popularity across Europe.

More Than Wood: A Philosophy

The name Zenwood comes from a vision: to create materials that convey balance, warmth and aesthetic depth.

“Zen” represents calm, awareness and harmony with nature. We want every project using our wood to create that sense of wellbeing and connection.

A fingerprint inspired by the rings of a tree symbolizes that quality of being unique: just as no two trees are the same, no two spaces are the same.

Our mission is to offer distinctive woods for distinctive projects, created for architects and designers who value authenticity.

Our Values

Our goal is to help you create a welcoming, sustainable environment through a natural and effective process. Our experienced craftspeople understand the complexities of the system and work meticulously, with close attention to every detail. We use durable woods such as spruce, oak and larch.

The exceptional tones of our charred wood are achieved through the application of natural oils.  We deliver a high-quality result that preserves the natural character of the wood, enhances its texture and supports long-term durability. Charred-wood facades, terraces, fences and details give homes and surroundings a warm, elegant appearance designed to last for decades. Our experienced specialists can share their knowledge, show completed projects, answer your questions, understand your expectations and help identify the right solution for your project.

At Zenwood, we believe that both interior and exterior spaces should feel welcoming and serene, and that wood is the ideal material for creating this atmosphere.

Aurimas Palianskas

Founder, CEO

I am a civil engineer, born in Lithuania. When I moved to Spain, I saw a clear opportunity: wood was not a common choice for architectural exteriors because of its maintenance needs and limited durability. Charred wood offered a compelling solution.

I was fortunate to grow up near some of the early craftspeople who refined the Yakisugi technique over more than a decade. This personal connection put me in a unique position to bring the material to architects seeking sustainable, beautiful and low-maintenance solutions.

What I value most is seeing our clients satisfied and inspired by the result. At Zenwood, we do more than supply high-quality charred wood: we aim to provide exceptional service and help bring each architectural vision to life.

My passion for natural design and the transformation of spaces fits naturally with the Zenwood philosophy. After many trips around the world, I learned to trust the process, embrace simplicity and let authenticity guide my work.
