Is Teak Sustainable? The Story Of Sustainable Teak

Teak is beloved for its weatherproof properties and durability, but is teak sustainable? At AuthenTEAK, we put practices in place to ensure that our teak furniture is sourced and crafted sustainably. Heres what goes into sustainably sourced and produced teak:

• Teak’s reputation as a durable, long-lasting outdoor material has made it vulnerable to over-harvesting.
• Sustainably sourced teak wood comes from facilities in Indonesia under the jurisdiction of Perum Perhutani, a state-owned enterprise responsible for the oversight of teak production.
• Sustainable teak outdoor furniture is made by local Indonesian workers using time-tested methods and Grade-A, responsibly harvested plantation teak.
• The result is a win for everyone: sustainably harvested and produced teak furniture that’s beautiful, durable, and made to last for generations.
