Teak armchairs, handcrafted in India — wholesale for importers, retailers and hospitality.
The weather-proof lounge seat: solid teak worked into frame, legs and arms, finished for indoors or left to brave the open air. Manufacturer-direct, compliance-documented and container-ready — from a trial order up.
Teak is the one wood a buyer can put on a patio and a hotel suite alike.
An armchair invites someone to stay — it fills a lobby corner, finishes a reading nook, anchors a terrace. Most seating forces a choice between indoor polish and outdoor survival; teak refuses it. Thanks to the natural oils and silica locked in its grain, a teak armchair resists water, rot, fungal decay and insects, so the same chair that reads as premium on a boutique retail floor can sit under rain and sun without a protective coat. That dual life is exactly why designers specify it and why retailers margin it up: teak reads as quality on sight, and it keeps that promise for years. We build it honestly — solid teak carries the sitter's weight and the lean-back stress an armchair takes, with upholstery, leather, cane or a shaped teak seat on top. Choose a ready design from our catalogue or hand us your own.
Built-in weather protection, dimensional stability, real heft.
A side chair forgives a weaker timber; an armchair does not. It takes arm-loads, lean-back torque and daily occupancy, and outdoors it faces weather on top of that. Teak answers every part of that brief, which is why it has furnished ship decks and verandahs for centuries.
Self-protecting against weather
High natural oil and silica content repels water and deters rot, fungi and insects — so an outdoor teak armchair survives sun, rain and salt air with no finish, weathering to a soft silver-grey if you let it.
Stable through humidity swings
Teak moves little as humidity changes, so joints stay tight and arms do not loosen — the difference between a chair that lasts a season and one that lasts a decade on a busy floor.
Strong, dense, repairable
A dense hardwood that carries weight and lean-back stress, and that sands and re-oils back to life — ideal for hospitality settings where seating earns its keep every day.

One timber, many armchairs — matched to your sample before we cut a container.
Solid-teak lounge & garden
Frame, legs and slatted or shaped seat worked entirely in solid teak — the classic patio and verandah armchair, left natural to silver or teak-oiled to hold its golden-brown tone.
Teak frame, soft seat
A solid-teak structure paired with your upholstery fabric, full-grain or buffalo leather, or hand-woven cane and rattan — an indoor accent or hotel-suite lounge chair.
Teak with metal accents
Teak married to powder-coated wrought iron or brass legs and arms for a contemporary look that can ship knock-down to raise container density.
Finishes for every market
Natural (left to weather silver-grey outdoors), teak-oiled for a lasting golden tone, or matt/satin lacquer and low-emission CARB / TSCA-compliant coatings for indoor pieces. We finish to your specification under ODM or OEM.
Assembled or flat-pack
Supplied assembled, part-assembled, or knock-down / flat-pack (RTA) — flat-pack teak armchairs cut freight and breakage and maximise container density for large importers and online sellers.
Indicative specs — every dimension, finish and seat is made to your order.

Hospitality, retail & outdoor
Teak armchairs suit hotel guest rooms, lobbies and pool decks, restaurant and café terraces, cocktail lounges, resort gardens and boutique retail. Because an armchair takes arm-loads and lean-back stress — and outdoor pieces face weather too — we build to commercial-use expectations, QC each lot, and finish for the setting. See the ranges we make for hotels, restaurants and bars and for gardens and outdoor spaces.
Easy to care for & import-ready
Indoor teak needs only a dusting and the occasional wax; outdoor teak can be left to silver or re-oiled once or twice a year to keep its golden tone — no annual refinishing. On the paperwork side, every order clears with FSC, Vriksh, EUDR-ready and CARB/TSCA documentation and ISPM-15 packing. See every certification we hold.
Teak armchairs — wholesale & export FAQ
What makes a teak armchair good for outdoor use?
Teak (Tectona grandis) carries a high level of natural oils and silica within its grain, which repel water and resist rot, fungal decay and insects — so a teak armchair survives sun, rain and humidity without a protective finish. Left untreated outdoors it weathers to a soft silver-grey patina; oiled, it holds its golden-brown colour. We build teak armchairs for patios, verandahs, pool decks and covered terraces, and finish them for whichever look your market prefers.
Are your teak armchairs solid teak or veneer?
Our teak armchairs are built from solid teak — seat frame, legs and arms worked from the timber itself, not a panel or plywood core with a teak face. Every armchair carries structural solid-wood members so it holds a sitter's weight and lean-back stress through years of commercial use; we do not supply plywood-only or veneer-over-particleboard seating. Where a design mixes materials, teak still forms the load-bearing frame, paired with upholstery, leather, cane or a metal accent.
What is the minimum order for wholesale teak armchairs?
A trial or sample order can ship LCL (part-container) so you can approve the wood, finish and comfort before committing. For best wholesale pricing thereafter, one 20ft full container load (FCL) is our standard minimum, and we consolidate teak armchairs with other seating, garden furniture, décor and metalware into a single mixed container. Flat-pack teak armchairs raise container density and cut freight per unit.
Can you make teak armchairs to our own design or private label?
Yes. We work as both ODM (our catalogue designs) and OEM — manufacturing to your drawings, dimensions, finish and upholstery, with custom CNC carving and machining, your branding and retail-ready, Amazon-FBA-ready or gift packaging. Send a reference image or a spec and we prototype to it before any production run.
Are your teak armchairs compliant for US and EU import?
Yes. We document FSC chain-of-custody and Vriksh timber-legality verification on teak, with EUDR-ready due diligence including geolocation and deforestation-free sourcing records. We support US Lacey Act declarations and UK Timber Regulation, apply CARB / TSCA-compliant finishes on indoor pieces, pack to ISPM-15, and carry ISO, SGS and SEDEX/SMETA audits. Certificate references are shared directly with serious buyers.
What is the lead time for a teak armchair order?
Typical production is 30–45 days after sample approval, depending on quantity, finish and upholstery. Urgent orders can be accommodated at a premium. We ship FOB or CIF from Mundra or Nhava Sheva, with current buyers across the USA, Australia and the Netherlands.
Send a reference or your catalogue — we'll quote, sample and ship.
Tell us the style, finish, quantity and market. We confirm the teak build, seat, finish, MOQ and a FOB/CIF price, produce a sample for approval, then manufacture and pack to your standard on a 30–45 day lead time.
