Teak

Skargaarden uses only high-grade teak (Tectona grandis) from carefully managed plantations. Teak is a dense hardwood, rich in natural oils, which makes it one of the most durable woods for outdoor use. It needs no preservatives or treatment to last, and every piece is sanded and polished before it leaves the factory.

Left outside, teak slowly turns a soft silver-grey as the surface oils evaporate. The oil deeper in the wood stays, and that is what keeps it strong. Small surface cracks or water marks can appear in the first months; these even out as the wood weathers to an even grey.

• A little rough after rain? When the furniture is used outside and gets wet, the surface of the teak becomes slightly rough. This is a natural process: a light sanding makes it smooth again, and it usually only needs doing once or twice in the beginning.
• Do not oil teak that stays outdoors. Oil does not make it last longer, can encourage mildew and leads to patchy colouring. Oil is only worth using on teak kept indoors.
• Rinse with a garden hose and wash now and then with mild soapy water and a soft brush. Never use a pressure washer.
• To keep the original honey colour, clean the wood with a teak cleaner, let it dry, then apply a thin layer of teak sealer. Repeat about once a year. Do not use sealer on new teak.
• Teak can stay outside all year, but it ages best if it spends the winter under a breathable cover or in an unheated shed.

Winter storage

• Store the furniture indoors, or cover it with a breathable cover. A cover that is fully airtight traps moisture and can cause mould.
• Leave a small gap between the cover and the ground so air can circulate.

Warranty

• 2-year guarantee under EU consumer law, covering manufacturing defects.
• Natural weathering of teak (greying, roughening of the grain, small surface cracks) is part of the material's character and is not a defect.
