GETTING TO KNOW TEAK WOOD GRADE B & C

Previously we had reviewed teak wood grade A which is the best and super premium quality. Now, we continue to review teak wood grade B and C.
TEAK WOOD GRADE B
This is the outermost from the heart of teak wood (heartwood). The diameter is around 25—35 cm. The edge of this grade is not used so it has minimum stripes.
This grade B part is 25%–30% from the whole one log. The colour is a bit more lighter compared to grade A. It has less regular fibers and not dense compared to grade A fiber.

Teak wood grade B is a medium quality. It is less shiny because the oil is lesser than grade A. However, it is still a good teak wood for furniture and the price is still expensive but cheaper than grade A.
TEAK WOOD GRADE C
This grade includes the outermost of wood stem (sapwood) and teak plant that is still young. This part is around 40% of the whole one log. Sadly, it has no natural oil for protection. That`s why grade C is a low quality teak wood. Off course the price is far below grade B and A.

The colour of teak wood grade C is white. The diameter of grade C is 17—25 cm. The edge part of this grade is still used so that white stripes will appear. This edge part is softer and relative easy to be eaten by insects/pests. But don`t worry because by using anti-pest materials and with proper handling, this can be overcome.
