Teak Patio Furniture Part II

Sustainable. Durable. Teak.
In our previous teak blog, we introduced you to Fortunoff Backyard Store’s teak patio furniture, an all-natural outdoor material.
This blog covers how to preserve your completely sustainable teak outdoor furniture, but before we dive into preserving, let’s talk about how it ages.
Shades of Teak
Teak is essentially the fine wine of outdoor furniture materials; it gets better with age. The warm honey glow fades over time into a sophisticated silver that blends perfectly with a more modern style aesthetic. In fact, let’s scrap the whole concept of aging with teak. It’s not that it gets older, it matures.
If shades are platinum are what you want for your teak outdoor furniture, let nature take its course. Stop sealing your teak, and it will bless your outdoor space with silvery tones far from second place. However, if all that glitters is gold-colored outdoor furniture in your eyes, we recommend sealing your teak outdoor furniture with Fortunoff Backyard Store Teak Sealer once every season.
Teak Care
Although teak is protected by its natural oils that migrate to the surface of the wood, the elements oxidize this oil, which is what turns the wood that memorable gray. Our Fortunoff Backyard Store Teak Sealer prevents this graying with UV protection and a mildewcide.
Again, it’s essential to use the sealer once every season to ensure your teak outdoor furniture maintains its glow, or it will grow up, and you’ll be back here looking for a way to restore it, which we’ll cover in our next blog.
