Teak in Colombia

Driving a sustainable future

Who We Are

At ECOTEAK, we work with teak using the best practices in agroindustry and sustainable forestry development. We are committed to ecological, high-quality, and environmentally friendly production systems. From plantation and log management to processing and marketing, we deliver high-quality products by properly using residual biomass, benefiting our operations and society’s quality of life. (with social responsibility).

CO₂ capture is key in our processes, contributing to ecosystem improvement. We offer premium, durable, and versatile woods through responsible practices, technological innovation, and a commitment to environmental preservation and community development—within a circular economy model.

Our Mission

To actively participate in the green revolution in agroindustry and reforestation in Colombia. To be recognized for driving transformative change through efficient and effective management in all teak and fine wood production phases.

To be the leader in the sustainable agro-industrial teak and fine wood industry through the quality of our products. To achieve environmental, social, and economic sustainability in all our processes, apply technological innovation, and maintain a permanent sense of environmental responsibility.

We also aim to be recognized for our innovative and responsible use of natural resources, contribution to a prosperous and sustainable future for all, protection of the environment, and generation of value for our clients and communities.

Our Vision

About Teak

Teak wood (Tectona grandis) is a high-quality tropical hardwood known for its moisture resistance, durability, and dimensional stability.

Native to Southeast Asia and grown in sustainable plantations, it matures slowly—between 8 and 20 years—resulting in high density and quality.

Advanced silvicultural management ensures uniform growth. With a 600 to 750 kg/m³ density and a natural content of oils and silica, teak resists termites, fungi, and extreme weather.

It is ideal for luxury furniture, marine construction, and outdoor cladding, with a lifespan exceeding 50 years.

Tipos de Teca

En este proyecto se plantea el uso y producción de la Teca Jun y la Teca Tradicional

Tectona Grandis
Teca Jun
  • Ésta Teca se refiere a la cultivada en plantaciones sostenibles

  • Posee características similares a la Tradicional con irregularidades en su estructura

  • Es conocida por su alta durabilidad y resistencia a la intemperie

  • Su apariencia puede variar en cuanto a su grano y color

  • La Tectona Grandis presenta un color dorado y un grano más uniforme

Su excepcional resistencia a la intemperie y a la corrosión la convierte en el material ideal para la navegación. Además, su belleza natural y durabilidad aseguran que nuestros yates no solo sean funcionales, sino también elegantes y atemporales.

Benefits of Teak

High Moisture Resistance

Ideal for outdoor use, boats, and garden furniture, as it doesn’t warp or rot easily.

Extreme Durability

Its high density and natural oils protect it against pests, fungi, and termites, outperforming many other woods.

Dimensional Stability

It does not significantly expand or contract with abrupt changes in temperature or seasons.

Residual Biomass from Teak

Residual biomass flows from teak wood processing—such as sawdust, moldings, and chips—are sustainably used to create high-value-added products.
