Why old Teak wood | |
Why old Teak wood ?
Old TEAK is more tight then (new) plantage TEAK.
So plantage TEAK can have more moist in it.
In subtropic country's the moist percentage is about 90-95 %.
Here in Europe it is about 15-20 %.So when the wood can take much moist,
you can calculate for yourself that there must be much moist what will leave the wood.
That is the reason that it will crack when the furniture is in Europe.
And that is the reason why we only use OLD TEAK.
Eran-Teak does his own import in mid- Java.
This furniture is ,or antiek,or repro,or modern style,made off OLD TEAK.
OLD TEAK is more expensive as plantage TEAK.
OLD TEAK is good quality :
MINIMUM INCREASE en ABSOLUTELY NO WORMS !
TEAK is a hard wood,wich is been used for boats, so
WETHER,WATER-,CHEMICAL- RESISTANT !
TEAK WOOD is more expensive as oak , cherry wood .
The demand off TEAK wood is still very high (will be more expensive).
That's why there are Teak plantages . There's TEAK from Zuid-Amerika,Afrika,
Thailand,Vietnam,India etc. BUT the best TEAK come's from mid Java.
Thats why the decks off expensive boat's have JAVA-TEAK !
Because off the Azian-crisis in 1998 and the still unstable
situation there, is TEAK still payable ,
but for how long.....?
So... TEAK IT,OR LEAVE IT !!!
