Recycled Teak
RECLAIMED SUSTAINABILITY
IN ANCIENT BEAUTY
Known as the "king of all woods,"
East Teak's reclaimed teak (tectona grandis) can make any commercial, residential or
marine project environmentally friendly, or "green." Our exclusive and limited line of
reclaimed teak is 100% recycled and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
to guarantee
that it is genuinely reclaimed and salvaged
in a responsible manner.
All of East Teak's recycled teak is carefully recovered by hand from old structures,
thereby avoiding the need to fell living trees – which helps to preserve natural forests
and protect the environment. Careful hand grading ensures the highest quality and
reusability of the wood. Each piece of wood, therefore, has a
special history and story to tell. As a result, you have access to
materials with unique character and beauty:
- visually striking coloration that varies from a golden-honey
to a warm mocha hue, resulting from ancient natural forest
growth and decades of air drying
- wide range of shapes and sizes, reclaimed and re-graded from beams and rafters
- incredible stability, as well as resistance to temperature changes and weather
elements, thanks to decades-long seasoning time
- rich, natural oils that make the timber extremely dense and strong
- with recycled
woods, allow
for some plugs,
live knots,
occasional filled
splits and nail
holes
