Teak Teak wood is generally used in high end outdoor furniture, boat decks and other products where durability and weather resistance is a key factor.
Teak is easily worked and has a high natural oil content that protects it even when it is not oiled or varnished against the natural elements such as water and harsh sunlight. With teak’s great attributes mentioned coupled to the fact that that it is also a very attractive wood with dark rich chocolate colours, straight grain and unique curved water mark patterns, it is the choice to make when durability and sophistication are the qualities your kitchen needs to project.
