Teak outdoor furniture is some of the best outdoor furniture that can be made, but do you know why? First, let us talk about what teak is.
So, what is teak?
Teak is a deciduous tropical hardwood that is native to the south and southeast of Asia. There are three types of teak: common teak, daphat teak, and Philippine teak. The latter two are endangered, so you most certainly do not want to have any teak outdoor furniture made from them! Common teak, though, is yet to be considered endangered, and it is still a fine material for teak outdoor furniture, among other things. Fortunately, the popularity of teak has led to more sustainable production.
