Teak Garden Benches used as Memorial Benches
Most memorial benches are made from stones like marble, granite and concrete. They are hard and cold in the winter and they are usually uncomfortable to sit on. Because of these downfalls that are associated with stone memorial benches there are some people that have started to use teak garden benches in place of the stone varieties.
Memorial benches can be bought to honour a deceased loved one, or to honour a group of individuals. These items can be donated to the city parks, the Veterans Memorial displays, to community buildings or public parks. They provide a comforting place for people to rest and they keep the memory of someone alive.
Some people have come to realise that the teak garden benches are beautiful to look at and they are very long lasting and durable. Teak garden benchesoffer comfort and are warmer to sit on than their concrete counterparts. Unlike the stone versions they do not absorb the cold from the air around them. Their texture is pleasant to the touch and the wood they are constructed from is very weather resistant.
The trees that supply the wood for the teak garden benches grow in tropical climates. Humid conditions and moisture will not cause them damage. This is why the lumber milled from the tectonagrandis trees are used on floors, outdoor furniture and ship building. Rain and contact with water will not make the wood warp, mildew ordiscolour in the way that some hardwoods like oak and red oak would.
This wood is sourced from plantations in Indonesia. The plantations plant the tectonagrandis and cultivate it for the purpose of cutting it and having it turned into lumber. This is much the same way that the pine trees are grown in the United States by the different timber suppliers there.
Memorial benches crafted from stone materials are currently being replaced in some areas by teak garden benches. This is mainly because the wooden variety is almost as durable and is more comfortable to sit on.
