Many hardwood species are available including Teak, but also Teak-Like hardwoods that have similar properties at half the price!
Teak and Teak-Like hardwoods have been the first choice for outdoor use for ships, boats, outdoor structures and furniture for hundreds of years. These immensely stable tightly grained hardwood timbers have a natural high oil, silica, and rubber content, all of which are water repellents which makes them highly resilient to outdoor elements giving them a lifetime of use.
Our furniture is constructed of eco-friendly sustainable hardwoods which are plantation grown and from well managed forests, most are FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified.
