Teak, also known by its botanical name Tectona grandis, is a timber species that primarily grows in
tropical environments (Myanmar/Burma, Thailand etc.) and can be found on the landmass that is located
within 10° degrees of the equator. It only thrives in locations with distinct wet and dry seasons. The tree
grows rapidly, and on favorable sites may reach up to 150 feet (45 meters) in height. The teak tree trunk
may reach 3 feet (1 meter) in diameter. Its rate of growth depends on several factors, including the quality
of its environment, (topography, drainage, soil and seed quality), as well as tropical temperatures,
humidity, and rainfall. Teak trees grow straight, with fluted trunks. The regenerative life of teak trees is
excellent.

Teak wood is a hard, heavy tree with a rough bark that is extremely durable and resistant to moisture and
the drying effects of weather exposure due to its substantial oil content. This heavy oil content allows teak
wood to naturally protect itself from insects, bacterial diseases, fungi, and forest fires. Teak wood is a
valuable wood because it can withstand the rigors of manufacturing processes without decaying, cracking,
or warping. Teak wood is remarkably versatile, making it one of the most sought after timbers in the world.
The principal uses for teak wood are decks, trim and detail work in expensive boats, and fine furniture,
flooring, carving, joinery, cabinetwork, paneling, and veneer. Teak wood is unique in that it does not cause
rust or corrosion when it comes in contact with metal.
