Solid teak wood: panels and boards for your project

Teak solid wood is extremely versatile. Due to its high weather resistance, it is ideal for outdoor use, e.g. as teak boards for terracesfor garden furniture or in boat building. Indoors, it is used for high-quality furniture, durable table tops, cutting boards and as fine teak strips for finishing edges.

In common parlance, both terms are often used interchangeably and refer to wood that consists of one type of wood throughout and is not veneered. Technically speaking, according to the DIN standard, “solid wood” refers to wood products that have been sawn from a single piece of a tree trunk. “Solid wood” can also consist of solid wood lamellas that are glued together, as is the case with solid wood panels. In both cases, you get 100% real wood.

Real solid wood is best recognized by the edges and ends. The grain of the wood should continue from the surface over the edge. With veneered materials, you will often see a thin glue joint and a different structure in the core (e.g. chipboard). Real wood also has a unique, irregular structure that is never exactly repeated.

Yes, a great advantage of solid wood is the possibility of individual cutting. You can order teak boards, teak slats or teak rods to the exact dimensions you need for your project. In this way, you avoid unnecessary waste and receive precisely fitting material for your project.

Teak is naturally very easy to care for, as its high oil content protects it from the weather and pests. If left untreated, it develops an elegant silver-grey patina over time. If you want to maintain the original golden-brown color, you should treat the wood once or twice a year with a special teak oil once or twice a year. Prior cleaning with a brush and water is sufficient.

Rhombus strips are wooden profiles with a parallelogram-shaped cross-section. They are mainly used for the modern design of facades and as privacy screens. The beveled edges allow rainwater to run off easily, which protects the wood. The special shape enables open installation with elegant joints, which ensures an interesting appearance and good rear ventilation.
