Teak chairs, tables, benches and loungers last for decades through all weather conditions and a wide range of seasonal temperatures without paint or preservatives. When the furniture is outdoors and untreated, the sun and rain will change all colors to an even, warm, silvery grey. Teak preservatives are available if you wish to maintain the warm amber color of the wood. Be sure to use only products recommended especially for teak to treat your teak patio furniture.
Teak, a tropical hardwood, is saturated with a hard waxy oil substance that protects the wood from bugs, disease, mold and the effects of weather and the sun. Natural teak timber varies widely in color from soft, even blonde to rich patterns of golden amber and deep brown.
