Our Teak
Due to US Sanctions, Burmese Teak is no longer available to purchase in the US. Since Teakworks4u has always offered two Teak options, we will simply be manufacturing all our products out of the highest grade heartwood (inner most part of tree) Plantation Teak.
Teak is characterized by its dense grain structure, high natural oil content, and rich golden-brown hue. The wood's inherent oils make it resistant to rot, decay, termites, and moisture, ensuring longevity and minimal maintenance requirements. Its natural beauty and lustrous finish make it an excellent choice for elegant, high-end furniture. The wood showcases its stunning straight grains adding a wow factor to any room. Known for its robustness, teak boasts exceptional durability and strength. The wood's stability and resistance to warping allows it withstands harsh humid conditions, making it a preferred choice for showers, saunas, steam rooms and more.
The teak is sustainably harvested using environmentally friendly methods from Plantations in Costa Rica. Our 100% FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) heartwood teak offers all the qualities you've come to know of teak.
Our sustainable sourcing adds an ethical dimension to its beauty, making it a perfect wood choice for those who value both quality and environmental consciousness.
Below is a very basic color variation that you can expect from our FSC teak.

Note: These are color variations of Burmese and Plantation Teak and are not swatches to choose from. Wood is natural and ranges in color and grain pattern. These variations of colors often complement most other woods in the home. For more options, check out our clearance products.
