About Kingsley Bate
British craftsmen of
the 18th century discovered what their Eastern counterparts had known for
centuries, that teak has qualities unlike any other wood. It's ability to
withstand the rigors of adverse climate, yet weather attractively, make it
the ideal choice for outdoor furniture. As America’s leading manufacturer of
teak outdoor furniture, we use only premium quality teak and precise mortise
and tenon joinery in the construction of our furniture. Simply put,
Kingsley Bate sets the standard for quality, value and design innovation
that other companies follow.
Committed to
Environmental Responsibility
Offering only the highest
quality products to the casual furniture market, Kingsley Bate also leads
the way in the responsible manufacture of its furniture. Preservation of the
Earth's ecological system is today a major concern. Indiscriminate
deforestation of the Amazon Basin and other rainforests has led to
widespread suspicion by the public of those companies in the teak industry.
Kingsley Bate is the first American company to use Javanese teak in the
manufacture of its furniture. Our teak is harvested from carefully
controlled plantations, established in Indonesia by the Dutch in the
Mid-19th century. The Indonesian government allows the felling of a limited
number of trees each year, and ensures that an equal amount of reforestation
takes place. In 1983 Kingsley Bate, in conjunction with the Indonesian
government and its people, undertook to develop a teak furniture program in
Java. Since then, Indonesia and Kingsley Bate have shown that such a program
can be implemented without detriment to that country's natural Resources
/
Care of Teak.
Due to the increasing demand for this beautiful hardwood, Kingsley Bate now
uses a select amount of Burmese teak in its productions. Whether Javanese or
Burmese, you can be assured that we use only the finest quality teak in our teak furniture.
In 1983 Kingsley Bate began
producing window boxes and has since expanded the line to include eleven
bench and armchair styles, dining tables and chairs, lounge and resort
furniture, rocking chairs, planters, market umbrellas and more. Manufactured
with precise mortise and tenon joinery, the furniture is shipped partially
assembled. The factory fully assembles each piece prior to shipment to
ensure that reassembly will take a minimum of effort and all pieces will fit
together to our precise specifications. The design of the furniture
incorporates the talents of skilled wood carvers and craftsmen. Every year
the line is expanded to incorporate new products and accessories.
