Teak is a tropical hardwood that is rich in wood oils, has antimicrobial properties and doesn’t easily soak up water. An uncommon wood for cutting boards, teak is usually extremely expensive and only used for luxury outdoor furniture or in marine applications such as boating or sailing. However, Teakhaus is able to offer it’s teak line of boards at a very reasonable price due to the fact that they own the teak plantations as well as control the manufacturing. For variations, the Teakhaus 108 is the exact same but with a juice groove, while the Teakhaus 106 measures 20 by 16 inches instead of 24 by 18 inches. We geek out more than we should about cutting boards and are very particular about where our woods are sourced from. We’re glad to say that Teakhaus boards are 100% Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified, which means that the wood is grown in a sustainable and renewable manner. Teakhaus is also Rainforest Alliance certified, which is one of the top non-profits in the field of preserving biodiversity. Note that Burmese teak (also known as “grand teak”) is absolutely not used in these boards, as teak from that region is more often than not illegally logged old growth.
