Beautiful new classic rustic garden bench for indoor or outdoor use. Made from solid premium plantation grown Teak oiled Shorea hardwood with the same properties as the more expensive hardwoods. It is impervious to rain, snow, frost or sunlight and needs no paint or preservatives for general use.

Why are Teak type hardwoods always the first choice for outdoor use (boats, ships, outdoor furniture)? These immensely stable timbers have a natural high oil and rubber content, a built-in water repellent which makes it virtually immune to rotting & gives them a lifetime of use. The dense fibers mature over time to create not only one of natures most structurally sound and stable timbers, but also one of natures unique species that posses an inherently high content of oil and rubber. The essential oil contained in this species of wood has an inbuilt natural water repellent which resists the action of water and prevents the rusting of iron, making it virtually immune to rotting as well as resistant to termites.

In times of old and that of the tall ships its weatherproof qualities made it a first choice for sailing vessels. As these later became obsolete carpenters utilized the salvaged timbers to fashion the first outdoor furniture, thus the illustrious birth of this now specialized industry. This ability to resist the extremes of both summer and winter is an internationally recognized phenomena. Without any maintenance this product will last 75-100 years in any environment in the USA. For several centuries, these special qualities have made these hardwoods the preferred choice for marine decking and construction and has and always will be the choice wood aboard ocean liners, as it is capable of withstanding even the harshest elements such as salt water, and is the reason that it is today, the premium timber for outdoor furniture.

 

This bench is made of hardwood that is plantation grown in Indonesia. This is also a G.E. (Genetically Engineered) product.
