White Painted Nyatoh
All of Skagerak Denmark's white painted furniture is made of solid Nyatoh hardwood, which is surface treated with a thick white paint. Wood is a living material, and it works and moves in line with changes in humidity and temperature. This may cause small cracks in the paint. Such cracks should be repaired immediately to avoid moisture penetrating in underneath the paint coat. Moreover white painted furniture should be repainted/repaired as required (depending on placing, winter keeping, etc.). White painted furniture should not be left outdoors in the winter time. It is recommended to keep the furniture for the winter in an unheated room such as a garage or a cellar. At delivery the wood is dried according to outdoor average humidity, which should be considered if you want to keep the furniture indoors. Use Skagerak Denmark Wood Quick for cleaning and Skagerak Denmark white repair paint for repainting and repair.

Versatility - Indoors or Outdoors
Skagerak teak and white painted furniture and accessores are made for either indoor or outdoor use.
Wood is a natural fiber and should be properly maintained for maximum life and beauty. We recommend that you do not expose your Skagerak furniture to extreme cold during winter.

Skagerak - Superior Design
Skagerak is a 100% Danish owned company founded in 1976 with headquarters in Hadsund. Skagerak's reputation as a premier designer and manufacturer of fine teak furniture is unsurpassed. Skagerak furniture and accessories are sold through dealers throughout Europe and recently have become available in America.
Skagerak develops, markets and sells quality products for the use in private homes - outdoor as well as indoor. Skagerak's products primarily appeal to consumers who value high quality, design and originality, when they buy durable consumer goods.
Skagerak ensures that the teak they use comes from trees between 30 and 50 years old. The wood from teak trees younger than 20 years old does not yet contain the important oil that makes teak ideal for outdoor furniture. In additional, Skagerak grows its teak in plantations so that forests are not destroyed. Skagerak teak is kiln dried for three to four weeks. This dries the wood to the optimum humidity and helps eliminate cracks.
