The Wealden Bench Difference ~ Personalisation, Expertise and Trust.

Sustainable Teak Garden Benches

At Wealden Benches sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We understand that the way we source our teak directly impacts the environment and we take that responsibility seriously.

Our manufacturing partners are fully SVLK certified and operate in complete compliance with the statutory Indonesian UK Voluntary Partnership Agreement known as UK FLEGT. This rigorous framework guarantees that every piece of teakfurniture we craft has been legally and responsibly harvested from managed state plantations under strict environmental governance.

You can have complete confidence that every piece of furniture we supply is made from teak that is 100% legal and sustainably sourced. Our timber is harvested exclusively from long established Perum Perhutani commercial plantations rather than natural rainforests, ensuring responsible rotational felling and mandatory replanting programmes.

100% Legal & Sustainably Sourced Teak

Our supply chain provides end to end traceability across three distinct stages;

SVLK Mill & Forestry Verification - Confirms responsible timber origins directly from audited Indonesian state plantation compartments.

FLEGT & V-Legal Export Compliant - Demonstrates full statutory legality under bilateral government trade agreements before leaving port.

UK Government Import Licenced - Officially cross referenced and validated by UK timber authorities upon arrival, guaranteeing complete compliance with UK timber regulations.

This certification process plays a vital role in preventing illegal logging and supporting verified forest management. By choosing a Wealden Bench product you are not only investing in decades of outdoor durability, you are also supporting proven forestry practices that protect natural ecosystems for future generations.
