4 Reasons to Choose Teak Furniture

4 Reasons to Choose Teak Furniture

26th Oct 2021

Teak outdoor furniture is a huge investment. However, we can all agree that the furniture's material is the one factor that determines whether it will stand the test of time. Furniture is made from many materials, but comfort, durability, and an original look are where natural wood shines. Perhaps most importantly, the thing to remember is that if you buy a quality product, it will last significantly longer than lower-priced (and lower quality) furniture.

When choosing wood for exterior furniture in the United States, you need something tough and water-resistant. Teak wood is the perfect solution!

It's Weather Resistant

Teak wood is considered the sturdiest and most long-lasting hardwood. One of its most exceptional qualities is its resistance to all weather conditions. In other words, teak will do fine when exposed to weather conditions like rain and intense sun. This can be attributed to its natural super-oily nature and tight wood grain.

Due to this natural oil that deters water,outdoor furniture made of teak can withstand severe rains and winter snowstorms. It also does not crack or get damaged by the boiling summer sun.

Resistant to Wood Eating Insects

One of the qualities you should be looking for in wood and outdoor furniture is the immunity to termites and rotting. In addition to standing the weather test, teak wood is highly invulnerable to wood-eating termites, decay effects, and acid damages.

Its richness in natural oil makes it repellant to the destructive effects of termites, rots, and moisture that seeps into the wood. So when you choose teak, you never have to worry about wood-eating pests.

Naturally Beautiful

When freshly cut, teak wood and furniture have a warm-brown luster resembling honey. This is attributed to its tightly packed grains of varying textures. The warm color tone of teak is what attracts many people. Moreover, as it ages, teak transforms into a natural and graceful silver-grey hue.

Note that you can retain the original golden texture of the teak by purchasing teak oil. Nonetheless, whether it's the original golden-brown color or the aged grey finish, the natural teak will add an allure to any outdoor space.
