New Recycled Teak Furniture For The Australian Market

The past decade has seen increased production of environmentally friendly products and services. The mass media has readily distributed the latest findings of global warming and mankind’s impact on the environment. The growing awareness of the negative affect that furniture production has on the environment has resulted in some of the larger furniture manufacturing companies producing recycled teak furniture.

In order to show their dedication to producing sustainable furniture many companies are ensuring that their products are FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified. FSC is an international organisation that provides a tangible system that analyses and certifies that production and manufacturing techniques of timber manufacturing companies. When a company is certified it allows them to use the FSC logo on their products which communicates to customers that the product has been manufactured in a manner that does not put forests at risk. With over 19,000 timber producers FSC certified across the world, the positive impact that the organisation is having on the environment is significant.

Sounds Like Home is a furniture and home-wares wholesaler in the Inner West of Sydney. With a wide range of stock, sourced form all over the world, they are quickly becoming one of the premier outdoor furniture wholesalers in Australia. Sounds Like Home have provided the Australian market with contemporary furniture that is FSC certified for years, but in 2013 they are going to expand their ranges of eco-friendly and recycled teak furniture.

Recycled teak is an excellent medium for creating sustainable furniture. The warmth of the grain leads itself to the urban industrial design style. The natural makeup of the timber provides it with insect resistant properties, and provides great water protection. The recycled teak furniture that Sounds Like Home stocks comes from old buildings and railways, so the timber already has great personality and a unique look that adds a great edge to modern apartments and outdoor settings.

Additionally, Sounds Like Home stocks a large range of wholesale artwork, from retro screen-prints to modern minimalistic designs. One of the most popular products is the tree of life triptych piece, constructed from sustainable mango wood. Sounds Like Home will be releasing new artwork ranges in 2013, these can viewed on the Sounds Like Home website at www.soundslikehome.com.au.

Sounds Like Home are proud to offer furniture that is not only environmentally friendly, but also looks great. Interior designers have been raving about the variety on offer in the Sounds Like Home showroom, and pieces have been showing up in all forms of the Australian media. Sound Like Home products have recently appeared in the October issue of Real Living, and recent issues of Australian Home and Garden.
