I have been recently asked on multiple occasions, how can one identify original Burma teak wood when purchasing? Here are the 5 major criteria to consider: 1. Color and Grain: Color: Burma teak typically ranges from a golden yellow to a rich brown color when freshly cut. Grain: It has a straight, slightly minute grain sometimes slightly wavy grain that is typically even and consistent. 2. Texture: Smoothness: Burma teak has a fine, oily texture that feels smooth to the touch. The wood can sometimes have a slightly oily or greasy feel due to its natural oils. 3. Odor: Aroma: When freshly cut, Burma teak may have a distinctive, fragrant odor that is sometimes described as leather-like or mildly aromatic. 4. Defects and Imperfections: Knots: Original Burma teak tends to have fewer knots compared to other teak varieties or lower-quality substitutes. Warping and Cracks: It is less prone to warping, twisting, or cracking compared to inferior quality teak from Africa, America. 5. Density and Weight: Density: Burma teak is known for its density and weight, which contributes to its durability and stability. It is heavier than many other types of wood used in furniture and construction. Which can be lab tested. Tips for Identification: Compare with Samples: If possible, compare the wood in question with known samples of Burma teak or images from reputable sources. Consult Experts: Buy from reliable source. Look out for presence of company over internet and name in the market. Seek advice from professionals or experts in woodworking or timber who have experience with identifying different types of teak. Substitutes: Be aware that there are substitutes and imitations of Burma teak, which may be marketed under similar names or descriptions. These substitutes may not possess the same quality or durability as genuine Burma teak. By carefully examining these criteria—such as color, grain pattern, texture, odor, and absence of defects—you can better identify original Burma teak wood and distinguish it from other types of teak wood. #burmateak #tectonagrandis #boatbuilding #europe #wood

❤️ Shrunk oak flooring is a kind of keeping natural and traditional dried oak surface with unique appearance and characteristic knots and cracks. 💕 You’ve heard about Shrunk Oak flooring, and if you’re anything like me, you’re probably wondering what makes it so special. Is it just another pretty face in the world of flooring, or is there some real science behind its allure? 💖 Well, let me tell you, we’re about to dive deep into the fascinating science that transforms ordinary oak into the flooring superstar known as Shrunk Oak. 💓 The Shrinking Process: How It Works Now, the real magic happens in the kiln. The slow drying process causes the wood to contract, creating a naturally textured surface. It’s like wood’s version of getting a facelift, but way more natural and far less Hollywood. Understand the shrinking process. ❤️ SHRUNK oak floors show an untouched surface with natural surface undulations and some random marks of a band saw. This unique surface is created through a special way of drying or ‘shrinking’ directly after the freshly oak raw material is sawn at the mill. The subtle aged look has a very organic touch. It feels soft and cozy and is characterized by beautifully brushed 3D knots and cracks and some occasional end splits ❤️ SHRUNK oak can also be ordered brushed & unfinished, ready for finishing. SHRUNK oak is very suitable for smoking and reactive coloring treatments. #pisomadeira #shrunk #oak #unfinished #woodflooring

When choosing between vinyl and linoleum flooring, it's important to consider the differences in composition, durability, maintenance, and environmental impact. Both are resilient flooring options, but vinyl is a synthetic material made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), while linoleum is a natural product composed of linseed oil, wood flour, cork dust, mineral fillers, and pigments on a canvas or burlap backing. Vinyl is generally more water-resistant and resistant to scratches, but linoleum is often considered to be more eco-friendly due to its natural composition. Maintenance requirements and installation costs may also differ between the two options. Get a quote today by calling 1-866-344-0170!
