Description

Teak-   tectona grandis—is a king among woods.  It is good looking and durable. Teak will not warp, twist or expand. Teak will repel termites, marine borers, and resist rot.  Teak has a high silica content.  Silica is sand which gives traction to those walking on teak decks.   Teak is the ideal wood for maritime craft for it will not produce electrolosis when coming in to contact with salt water and metal. Also, used for high quality architectural woodwork and furniture.  The picture above is showing the way we import teak lumber.   The log is flitch sawn, kiln dried, then banded together. In lumber we specialize in long lengths and wide widths (up to 30”) of genuine first European quality Burmese teak.
