[1] Teak furniture can remain outdoors in any climate year round, and can be left unfinished or protected.
Teak is an excellent material for this application, because it will not be broken down in the sun like plastics, it is less prone to the elements like other woods, it is lighter and cooler than iron, and will not easily bend or break like tubular metals.
While teak provides the durability, weather resistance and lightness needed for such an application, metals like aluminum are more popular and generally a cheaper choice.
Teak bath mats are a luxurious and practical addition to bathrooms, offering a blend of durability and aesthetic appeal.
With landscaping and outdoor décor being such a popular trend, furniture to sit in and enjoy the space has followed suit.
