WATERPROOF
Teak is a hard wood. It is strong and durable, able to withstand extremes of heat and cold. Whilst this makes it excellent wood for outdoor furniture, it also means that it can provide a lifetime and more of use indoors. It’s durability means that it is unlikely to suffer from rotting or many other afflictions that can attack other woods.

QUALITY CONTROL
Like genuine leather and other luxury materials we’ve come to appreciate, there are varying qualities of teak wood. AlaTeak Furniture uses only premium grade 100% Tectona grandis, teakwood. Only the finest cuts are selected and used in the production of our patio furniture. Much of the lumber used in the cottage industry is of secondary quality that may include sapwood. We use only select kiln-dried teakwood with characteristics that include: straight grain structure, absence of knots, splits or cracks and, an even tone in color.

PRODUCT CARE
Our specially produced stool comes pre-oiled from factory and ready to be used outdoors and indoors as soon as you receive it. Our production is using high quality materials and improved technology, so in this way the stool last several years. The most important part of keeping them for very long years is to maintain them properly and follow the instructions well.
They are eligible to stay out during winter, but please try to clean them before snowfall and after the snow let them dry in sunshine. To recover anything please give them a coat of a high quality wood oil.
