Teak wood genuine Tectona Grandis
Tectona Grandis,or as we know it Teak
We have probably sold more teak in South Africa than all other timber merchants put together,this was as our parent company Commercial Lumber cc,we became the specialists,we always bought the best and the longer lengths too,teak is sold by its length,many merchants buy as short as possible to reduce their financial outlay,we bought to suit teak decks on boats,the cost went up but so did the quality,known in the trade as FEQ,or first european quality,simply the best.We developed certain cutting rules,all timbers when required are 1/4 sawn as is the correct manner,this kind of cut last longer and is less liable to cause splinters,we still bring in quality teak but normally to special order,the pictures are of a Hallberg-Rassey 44 that sailed here specially to have their decks re laid.
