Here you should try to keep your favorite furniture away from damp places as an effort to take care of teak wood furniture. For example, this can be done by placing chairs and a dining table far from the sink or a wet kitchen set in the kitchen room.

Don't put furniture against walls


In the placement of furniture layouts, we often encounter furniture layout positions that are often attached directly to the walls of the room. Whereas a position like this is prone to moisture and eventually wood pests and mold will arise. Arrange the layout of the furniture and place it in the middle of the room. This position makes the room more spacious and organized according to the function of the furniture itself. Furniture that is attached to the wall will certainly damage the wall paint and furniture finishing. The friction between the furniture and the wall over time will make the paint & furniture finish peeling off.

The use of furniture according to its function


The most effective way to treat furniture, especially for teak wood, is to use it according to its function and portion. Do not force furniture for indoor use. Indoor & Outdoor Furniture has a different construction system & type of finishing that has been adapted to its function. The use of upholstery material also differs according to its placement. Upholstery fabric for outdoor garden chairs is harder and water-repellent. The opposite also applies to concept furniture in the room.

Immediately Open Furniture Packaging


If you have just bought furniture, immediately open the packaging. Too long wooden furniture in the packing can also damage and cause the wood to be in a damp position. Remember that wood has UNPRREDICTIBLE natural properties.
