quality We only use the best materials, selected for their resistance to external aggressions (UV, temperature variations, rain…). Our teak, selected for its high oil content, is dried then steam-treated to make it rotproof. Tectona also pioneered the use of synthetic materials such as woven resin, which is used around an ultra-light aluminium frame. Powder-coated aluminium, cast or in tubes, combines lightness with robustness and does not rust. With regard to fabrics, such as Batyline and Sunbrella: these are selected for their softness and solidity. All our products undergo rigorous quality...

teak : a wonder material properties Teak, a dense wood belonging to the Verbenaceae family and native to tropical regions, is a material that looks great and is optimally adapted to life outdoors, as it secretes an oil that confers protection against rotting and humidity. Moreover, furniture in teak is undemanding. Teak can be left outdoors all year round and it becomes more regal with age, blending discreetly into its surroundings. Teak does not split, and any cracks that appear on the surface are small. Over time, if teak is left untreated, a characteristic silver patina develops, lending the...

new for 2016 : Copacabana sun lounger This collaboration bears fruit once again: this year, Christophe Delcourt has designed a chic and welcoming sun lounger for the iconic Copacabana collection. The design, rational and minimal, places the focus on the wood. Comfort is guaranteed by the astute combination of teak and Batyline fabric, and is further reinforced by the generous width. The backrest has 6 reclining positions. Here, details are not for the sake of details but serve to underline the quality of the design. Beneath the seat is a storage space for towels and books, extremely handy poolside...

Lausanne bench The project finally chosen for development was that of Anthony Guex, a 27-year-old native of Lausanne, whose design represented the optimal balance between present and future. The combination of aluminium and teak lends a thoroughly modern allure to this traditional bench. Incorporation of metal translates into a lighter bench and also introduces colour options. Although the aesthetics have been redefined, the piece retains all its elegance. see p. 39 inside back cover
