Ethos long teak planter

Solid Teak

Country Casual Teak furniture is crafted from solid Grade A teak (Tectona grandis), a durable hardwood that performs beautifully outdoors in any climate. Its high oil and rubber content forms natural barriers against the elements, giving teak weatherproof qualities without sealers, finishes or oils.

Its dense straight grain keeps timbers stable without warping, twisting, or splintering making it the material of choice in the marine industry for ships and luxury vessels. Our strict standards in selection and kiln drying and our expertise in mortise and tenon joinery ensure Country Casual Teak furnishings will last a lifetime. See our Ecological Statement for more details.

Natural teak varies widely in color from blond to rich patterns of amber and brown. Outdoors and untreated, teak will weather over time to silvery gray. Teak requires no preservatives. Country Casual Teak offers a variety of care and treatment products for other aesthetic options. See our Teak Care Guide for more details.

Powder-Coated Aluminum

Reinforced tubular aluminum is precision-welded and powder-coated with exterior polyester paint for a long-lasting finish that resists rusting, cracking and peeling. Nylon or plastic feet and bumpers protect furniture from damage and are replaceable.

Is teak a good material for planters?

Teak is a durable, trusted hardwood. It performs beautifully in any climate, and its high oil and rubber content make it virtually immune to rot. Teak furnishings last for decades through bright sun, rain, snow, and a wide range of seasonal temperatures without the need for paint or preservatives. See the Benefits of Teak Wood.

Do teak planters need a liner or special insert to protect the wood?

Teak's longevity and natural oils allow it to last generations outdoors, and our expertly crafted teak planters resist rot and cracking. Our planter designs include liners for convenience and to prevent plant material, soil and water from direct contact with wood.

How long can a teak planter last outdoors?

Our teak planters last decades outdoors with minimal care.

How do teak planters compare to ceramic, fiberglass, or metal options?
