Indo Teak Design Unveils New Finishes for Company's 100% Reclaimed Teak Flooring

As with other finish options, new options are highly green and highlight the natural beauty of reclaimed, 100+ year-old teak, Indo Teak Design reports

 

San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/15/2014 -- Indo Teak Design announced the availability of a pair of new finishes for the company's industry-leading, 100% reclaimed teak flooring products, viewable online at http://www.indoteakdesign.com. Like the rest of the finishes Indo Teak Design offers, the new options are low in emissions and free of volatile organic compounds, making them especially responsible choices from an environmental standpoint. Indo Teak Design is one of the world's leading suppliers of 100% reclaimed teak and works closely with the Indonesian government and other sources to secure beautiful, well-aged teak from buildings already slated for demolition.

"We're happy to announce the availability of two new hues for our teak flooring products," Indo Teak Design founder Frank Ragen said, "As with our other finishes, these new options can be ordered with smooth, wire-brushed, or natural surfaces, providing the flexibility that our customers have come to expect and appreciate."

Indo Teak Design was established over twenty years ago after Ragen was initially disappointed in his quest to secure high-quality teak for a villa of Balinese design he and his wife had decided to build in San Diego. Refusing to give up, he eventually came into contact with a distinguished craftsman who was able to install reclaimed teak floors that faithfully reflected the beauty the Ragens had come to expect from their extensive travels to Indonesia.

Recognizing the need for a reliable, environmentally aware supplier of teak flooring, paneling, and furniture, Ragen founded Indo Teak Design shortly thereafter. Over the course of the last two decades, the company has built up a network of productive relationships with a number of important partners in Indonesia, ranging from Indonesia's largest teak-processing plant to the governmental agencies that supply much of the company's teak from buildings that are being decommissioned.

Whether engineered flooring, paneling, or furniture, the products supplied by Indo Teak Design are among the greenest and most sustainable of their kind. All of the company's teak is Forest Stewardship Council certified as 100% recycled, being reclaimed from demolished buildings that were originally erected 100 or more years ago. The extensively aged teak the company acquires in this way is as beautiful as it is resilient and perfectly suited for use in flooring products, paneling, and furniture.

Indo Teak Design's commitment to environmental stewardship continues through the processing that the company applies to the raw teak material. Only formaldehyde-free adhesives are used in the construction of the company's products, and Indo Teak Design adheres to a strict zero-waste manufacturing policy, using teak scraps in engineered flooring substrates and other appropriate ways.

The new finishes can be viewed online at http://www.indoteakdesign.com/#!engineered/cigo. Like the rest of Indo Teak Design's finish options, they are environmentally conscious to the highest degree, making use of dyes that are entirely free of volatile organic compounds. In addition to the company's industry-leading commitment to delivering the most environmentally friendly teak products available, Indo Teak Design supports worthy organizations like SurfAid International by donating a portion of the company's gross proceeds.
