Where Our Materials Come From
Our teak originates in the managed Perhutani plantations of Central Java — the gold standard for tropical hardwood. Grown over 40–80 year cycles, this teak produces the dense grain and natural oil content that makes it uniquely resistant to moisture and insects.
Rattan is harvested by hand from wild and farmed stands in Kalimantan and Sulawesi, where indigenous communities have sustainably managed these climbing palms for generations. Our bamboo sourcing in West Java focuses on Moso varieties that regrow within 5 years of harvest.

Our Certifications
We carry the certifications that matter most to hospitality buyers, importers, and architects across the EU, USA, and Australia.
SVLK
Sistem Verifikasi Legalitas Kayu
Indonesia's mandatory timber legality verification system. All our teak carries a V-Legal certificate, required for export and accepted by major international buyers.
FSC®
Forest Stewardship Council
Available on request for EU and US buyers who require FSC chain-of-custody. FSC certification confirms our wood comes from responsibly managed forests meeting social and environmental standards.
ISO 9001:2015
Quality Management System
Our production facility is ISO 9001:2015 certified, covering design, production, QC, and delivery. This means consistent quality standards across every order, every time.
Sustainability Practices
Responsible Forestry
We source exclusively from Perhutani-managed plantations and certified community forests. Every cubic metre harvested is matched with replanting commitments. We do not purchase from old-growth or protected forest sources.
Zero-Waste Workshop
Wood off-cuts are processed into charcoal briquettes for local fuel use. Rattan trimmings become weaving material for community craft programs. We target less than 8% waste-to-landfill across our entire production line.
Community Employment
Over 200 artisans employed directly from local communities in Jepara and Cirebon — areas with generations of woodworking heritage. We pay above-market wages and provide skills training, healthcare, and housing allowances.
