Top 10 Reasons to Choose Eucalyptus Furniture vs. Teak Furniture

  1. Eucalyptus Furniture is as hard as oak and weathers better than Teak.
  2. Eucalyptus Furniture has the same durability as Teak with superior strength.
  3. Eucalyptus Furniture has a long life. Average durability is 15-25 years if left untreated and 50-100 years if maintained properly.
  4. Eucalyptus Furniture is more dense than Teak (ok, so it's not the brightest tree in the forest - cut it some slack!).
  5. Eucalyptus Furniture is similar to Teak in natural tendency to be rot resistant.
  6. If left untreated, Eucalyptus Furniture will weather to a natural gray - similar to Teak.
  7. Though it does take a bit more maintenance than Teak Furniture (Eucalyptus does not have the same high oil content as Teak), it is a much more sustainable choice. Eucalyptus grows quickly, is plantation grown and is not harvested from our severely endangered and ever shrinking rain forests.
  8. Eucalyptus Furniture has beautiful and interesting grain and coloring.
  9. It's affordable! Eucalyptus Furniture is nearly 1/3 the price of true Teak.
  10. You're smart and savvy - Eucalyptus is the best choice for both the planet and your wallet!
