Teak, Tectona Grandis, is a tropical hardwood. It possesses a fine, yet strong and dense grain with natural oil contents, which makes it the perfect timber for outdoor furniture.

Teak is a tropical hardwood that grows primarily in the dry terrain of Southeast Asia and India. The teak we use is not sourced from rainforests, but is harvested from sustainable plantations and is FSC certified.

The term ‘machine-made’ refers to the use of modern machinery to create precision joineries. This is in comparison to ‘hand-made’ joinery, where joineries are crafted using simple (motorised) machinery, which may result in imperfect joints.

Absolutely, teak is generally graded A, B or C. The different grades refer to the overall quality (contents of oil, density of grain, and appearance) of the timber. A-grade is the best quality and is usually found at the core of the log (the most established part). The B and C grades are created from the outer rings of the log.
