Teak

Benefits of Teak decking

• Thanks to its darker colour rit can mask possible impurities or damages.
• It dries slowly and has good stability in use.
• Teak is highly tough and hardwood.
• It is dimensionally stable.
• It is highly waterproof.
• It is easily durable.

Origin
Teak originates from Indonesia, Burma and grows in India, Thailand. It has also spread in part to Malaysia, Borneo, the Philippines, tropical Africa, and Central America.

Description
The Teak has a medium and dark colour, and thanks to that, it can mask possible impurities. It dries slowly and has good stability in use. Therefore, a large amount of moisture is not a problem for this species. Teak wood is also highly resistant to weather conditions and tolerates the alternation of dry and humid environments. Java Teak decking has medium flexural strength, low stiffness and impact toughness, high compressive strength, and moderately suitable bending. Teak java is an exceptional wood, and thanks to its structure, high content of natural oils and silicic acid, it is very dimensionally stable and unusually durable, especially in the wet environment.

So if you like symmetry and beauty like Merbau, we recommend it to you.

Recommendation
If you decide not to apply surface finishing, sunlight and water will create a grey patina. An essential component of radiation that affects the greying of wood is UV radiation. Wood molecules absorb this radiation, and when exposed to water, a grey patina forms on the surface and into the depths of the wood. This grey patina will eventually become natural protection against further exposure to UV radiation. In the case of this smooth profile, you can use T-STICK clips or a connecting clamp with a screw for an invisible connection from above for mounting.
