furniture.
Teak is used to make
outdoor furniture,
boats, and other things
which require resistance to the elements. Teak is used for outdoor furniture
because of its natural durability in extreme weather conditions and because of
its relative rarity. Being more expensive than most other woods, teak
furniture has become something of a status symbol.
Not only is it common for a teak bench, chair, or table to last 70 years
standing out in the elements, it is also common to pass down such furniture to
future generations as an heirloom.
Kinds of teak furniture
Teak
furniture can remain outdoors in any climate year round, and can be left
unfinished or protected. Plantation teak wood can be considered eco-friendly
due to its long life expectancies. To ensure the reduction of impact teak
furniture has to the environment, many forestry companies produce sustainably
managed plantation teak.
Tables and dining sets
In places
and seasons where eating outdoors is common and pleasant, it is common to find
wooden dining tables and chairs in gardens, backyards, deck
areas, patios,
pool yards and sun rooms.
Teak is an excellent material for this application, because it will not be
broken down in the sun like plastics, it is less prone to the elements like
other woods, it is lighter and cooler than iron, and will not easily bend or
break like tubular metals.
Benches
Benches are perhaps the most common use of teak
other than marine
applications. Teak benches are ideal for commercial use due to their strong
nature and natural resistance to decay and termites, and are available in an
endless variety of designs and lengths.
Sun loungers
Teak is
popular for chaise longues and other recumbent seating because it is more
durable and better crafted than most plastic loungers and will not get hot in
the sun like metal loungers. Since these chairs are heavy, they often have 2 or
more wheels for easy transport from place to place.
Adirondacks
Adirondack
chairs (also known as Muskoka chairs) are comfortable with their
high backs, their contoured seats and their wide arm-rests. The arm-rests
provide ample room for food and beverages for comfortable meals while reclining
with no table required, making them popular with outdoor cafés
and bistros
as they offer seating and a small place for food without the need for a table.
Umbrellas
Teak is a
popular and traditional wood for the frames of large umbrellas
such as shade umbrellas and market umbrellas. While teak provides the
durability, weather resistance and lightness needed for such an application,
metals like aluminium are more popular and generally a cheaper choice.
Deep seating
Complemented
with weather resistant and outdoor cushions
and similar to living room furniture, deep seating patio
furniture is becoming more and more popular in places with warmer
climates. With landscaping and outdoor décor being such a popular trend,
furniture to sit in and enjoy the space has followed suit. The teak wood
construction allows patio furniture sets to last years longer than other wood
furniture.
Teak
is used for outdoor furniture because of its natural durability in extreme
weather conditions. Very nice furniture.
