About Benin Teak

Benin Teak hails from the dry tropical forests of Benin, West Africa. This slow-growth environment gives the timber a higher density compared to other plantation teaks, making it exceptionally strong and heavy.

It is instantly recognizable by its vibrant yellowish-gold color which brightens up interiors. In the Indian market, it is particularly favored for making "Choukhats" (Door Frames) due to its combination of strength, visual appeal, and competitive pricing.
