Wooden garden furniture has been a favourite for decades and the reason is simple, it's super stylish and highly durable.
Natural wood can also be easily combined with other materials such as aluminium, rattan or stainless steel to create beautiful, rustic yet modern garden furniture sets.
Hardwood such as oak, acacia and teak are particularly popular material choices for wooden garden furniture. Softwoods such as pine on the other hand, can be cheaper but don't offer the same level of durability as hardwood does.
Extremely versatile, hard wearing and perfect for many different types of garden furniture - from dining sets, to lounge seating and garden benches - the style and colour choices are almost endless when it comes to hardwood garden furniture!
Choose from quality wooden furniture brands such as 4 Seasons Outdoor and Alexander Rose, plus many more.
Wooden Garden Furniture With Style & Substance
Wooden patio sets can fit any style of garden space too - modern and minimalist to traditional and classic - they're the perfect addition if you want to maximise the natural look of your outdoor space while still being comfy enough to sit back, relax and soak up the summer sun with a glass of wine or two.
Wooden garden furniture made from hardwood is not only lovely to look at, it's also extremely family friendly and robust enough to withstand harsh weather conditions all year round.
All of our wooden garden furniture comes from premium manufacturers such as 4 Seasons Outdoor, Alexander Rose and Pacific Lifestyle and you can rest assured that the wooden furniture you buy is crafted to the highest possible standards, from the best quality hardwood.
Teak garden furniture has become increasingly desirable in recent years, with many premium brands now using teak in particular for its exceptional resistance to water, durability and beauty.
As it’s become a more popular choice among those looking for high quality, long lasting wooden garden furniture for their outdoor space, you'll find teak dining sets, lounge seats and coffee tables are a prominent feature of our wooden garden furniture range.
Durability and Beauty: The Benefits of Teak Wood for Outdoor Furniture
Teak patio furniture is known for its durability and longevity. It's one of the strongest natural tropical hardwoods. Teak can hold out against harsh weather conditions such as rain, sun or snow. This is because teak has a high natural oil content and has a very dense, close grain.
Not only is it durable against the weather but it's also less prone to rotting. The natural oils can help stop moisture ingress and can also repel insects.
Wooden Garden Furniture Care & Maintenance
Wooden outdoor furniture needs very little maintenance and will still stand the test of time.
When left outside, wood will naturally age and change colour to a mellow silver grey. This process is completely natural and is actually the wood protecting itself - it's known as weathering.
If you decide to let the wood age naturally, we recommend keeping it clean by giving it a good brush and then a wash down with warm soapy water at least once a year.
Changes in temperature and moisture can cause small hairline cracks to appear, again this is natural and has no effect on the durability or strength of the wood.
Looking after your teak outdoor furniture
Teak garden furniture does not need to be covered. However, we would always recommend covering every type of garden furniture as it's a simple yet effective way to protect it from the elements, fallen leaves and bird droppings, which in turn, will extend its lifespan.
If you do opt to cover your wooden garden furniture during the winter months, it's important to regularly remove the cover and let the wood breathe. We would recommend doing this once a week.
Treating wooden garden furniture
Hardwood garden furniture doesn't need to be treated. However, if you would like to maintain the original colour of the wood, you can choose to treat it using a suitable oil or stain. We would recommend doing this with oak and acacia garden furniture periodically to extend its life.
Likewise, painting wooden furniture with suitable wood paint can also increase its longevity as well as afford you the opportunity to change up the look of your outdoor space.
If you're unsure what type of wood treatment you need, just contact us and we will help you find the correct treatment for your furniture.
The Sustainability of Wooden Furniture Sets
Sustainability is so important and we want to ensure that our furniture isn’t damaging the environment. This is why we only choose brands with a strong sustainability policy.
4 Seasons Outdoor pride themselves on creating stunning yet sustainable wooden garden furniture. Their furniture and all teak components are equipped with a legal FSC or an SVLK/V-legal certification.
This certification ensures they fully comply with all the latest government EUTR rules that have been in force since 2013.
This means that they only harvest their wood from legal, ethical teak plantations. The trees planted in these plantations are only suitable for harvest after a minimum of 15 years.
Fully Certified Sustainable Wooden Garden Furniture
This is done to ensure that young trees are given the chance to reach their full potential and convert CO2 into oxygen. This is regulated to ensure older, mature trees are to be cut down as opposed to the illegal, unregulated logging that can happen in the jungle with no concern for the age of the trees.
Bramblecrest have also been implementing changes to how they do business to ensure their practices are as sustainable as possible.
For example, Java teak from Indonesia is used to create the Bramblecrest Vilamoura range of outdoor furniture. Like 4 Seasons Outdoor products, it is fully compliant with the EU Timber Regulations to guarantee that the wood is imported under the FLEGT (Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade) licensing scheme.
