Music My name's Carl Drake, I'managing Director of Sheik Teak Limited. We've been established for 12 years and we're based in rural Hampshire. We're designers, manufacturers and importers of luxury outdoor living furniture made in solid teak. Being furniture designers by profession, we're aiming to produce individual pieces, luxury items that are not found on the mainstream outdoor furniture market. We can also work closely with our clients offering a bespoke service. This is our first time at Grand Designs. We came here with the view to engaging with professional landscape and garden architect profession. We've been overwhelmed by the response to the furniture on the show here and we've been busy all week. Anyone looking to buy teak furniture, I would say, insist on the finest quality. Historically, teak furniture is a traditional design, but with Grand Designs being more of a contemporary design and build show, we thought we'd introduce our new contemporary cube dining set. Well, we only use the finest hardwood grade A teak. That's because it's very rich in natural oils and minerals, so therefore it doesn't need a great deal of maintenance. A simple warm water and mild detergent to wash it down, and that's all you need. Teak's the ultimate low maintenance material. Look for manufacturers that buy and source sustainable and responsibly. I would look for a manufacturer or a supplier that has a very long warranty and has a good customer care record. Our showroom in Hampshire, most probably the largest selection of quality teak furniture in the UK. We also supply National Trust, English Heritage, the Lord's Cricket Ground and most of the city and county councils throughout the UK. We can take single commissions from our clients or design individual pieces that we think the market is looking for. And then we'll have them made overseas indonesia at one of our factories. And then we bring them back over here and sell them in the UK, although we do ship worldwide. Buying sustainable teak is important. It matters to us and it matters to our cons So it's important that we've got the correct accreditation and that we're buying the wood not only responsibly but also legally. We're also looking for a manufacturer that has a good customer care record. We're also looking for a manufacturer that has a good customer care record.
