What is best quality teak wood ?

by Bharadwaj Satish 12 Mar 2018 0 Comments
The quality of teak wood depends on the age tree from which it is cut.

The best quality teak wood is grade A

Grade_A_teak_logsTeak wood is separated into three grades based on the quality of the wood. These three grades are known simply as grades A, B, and C. When a teak tree is mature, it will have a very dense core at the center of the trunk that appears darker than the surrounding wood. This is called the “heartwood” of the tree. Heartwood from mature teak trees of over 30 [1] years old has a thick concentration of natural protective oil. Grade A teak is this mature heartwood, which is very dense, heavy, and saturated with natural oils that will protect anything made out of it from water damage and insects such as termites. Ideally, you want to look for furniture made from grade A teak.


Grade B teak is simply the heartwood from immature trees. It still contains some of the protective oils, but it is not as dense as grade A. Furniture made from grade B teak is not terrible, but it will not hold up outside exposed to the elements as well as furniture made from grade A teak. The lowest grade of teak wood is grade C. It is just wood from the outer sections of the trunk that lacks the natural oils which make grade A teak such a superior wood. Grade C teak will be characterized by an uneven, lighter color with widely spaced grains.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
