Teak and Mahogany: Choosing Wood for Hospitality Furniture - Image 1

A practical guide to Indonesian plantation teak wood and mahogany for indoor, outdoor, hotel, resort, and custom furniture projects.

Wood selection affects furniture appearance, durability, maintenance, and long-term performance. Starwood Furniture Indonesia manufactures furniture in Indonesian plantation teak wood and mahogany, matching the material, construction, and finish to the intended setting.

Indonesian plantation teak for indoor and outdoor furniture

Indonesian plantation teak wood is used across our indoor and outdoor collections. For outdoor furniture, the timber, construction details, treatment, and finish are specified for exterior use and the expected climate. For indoor furniture, teak provides a warm natural character for dining, bedroom, lounge, and hospitality applications.

Mahogany for refined indoor furniture

Mahogany is used for suitable indoor furniture, casegoods, decorative pieces, doors, and windows. It supports detailed profiles and a refined finish when the project calls for a different tone or design character from teak.

Matching the wood to the project requirements

Hotels, resorts, villas, restaurants, and residential projects each place different demands on furniture. Location, exposure, dimensions, finish, upholstery, cleaning routines, and maintenance should be agreed before production. We review architectural drawings, furniture schedules, and approved specifications so the selected material supports the intended use.
