Reliable Indonesian Furniture Export for International Procurement
Operating directly from Jepara—the historical epicenter of Indonesian woodworking—Teratai Furniture engineers solid plantation teak (Tectona grandis) and mahogany collections tailored for ocean freight. For 30 years, our workshop has reliably fulfilled container shipments for furniture importers, architectural procurement managers, and commercial retail brands across North America, Europe, Oceania, and the Middle East.
International furniture sourcing demands stringent moisture management, robust structural joinery, and verifiable timber legality. We maintain direct oversight throughout timber kiln-drying, multi-stage quality control, custom crating, and container stuffing at our facility to guarantee seamless logistics from Central Java straight to your distribution center.
Logistics Flexibility (FCL & LCL)
Our baseline manufacturing cycle operates around 20ft and 40ft High Cube containers. However, we welcome mixed container orders and smaller volume programs (LCL) when cubic meters allow consolidated pallet dispatch alongside your existing Indonesian forwarders.
SVLK Legal Timber Certification
All timber processed at our workshop is 100% verified under Indonesia's national SVLK framework (V-Legal). We provide complete chain-of-custody documentation compliant with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), the US Lacey Act, and the Australian Illegal Logging Act.
Moisture Balancing & Export-Grade Protective Packaging
Solid tropical hardwood requires specialized conditioning before shipping into low-humidity and centrally heated climates. Unprepared timber risks surface checking, hairline cracking, and dimensional warping. Our export preparation standardizes technical durability before any crate is sealed:
Kiln-Drying & Moisture Equilibrium
Our raw teak and mahogany undergo controlled convection kiln drying until moisture levels stabilize strictly between 8% and 12% MC. This thermal process cures internal stresses, preserves resin balance, and ensures the furniture remains structurally inert regardless of seasonal heating shifts abroad.
- Calibrated pinless moisture readings before final joinery
- Floating solid panel construction allowing natural expansion
- Traditional mortise and tenon joinery locked with teak dowels
Multilayer Packing & Ocean Crating
Every console, table, and seating unit receives multi-tier protective cushioning designed for turbulent transoceanic transport, handling rough sea swells, container vibration, and multi-handling transshipment hubs.
- Shock-absorbent foam wrap and edge corner protectors
- Heavyweight double-wall corrugated carton encasement
- Reinforced ISPM-15 compliant timber crates for delicate pieces
From Technical Specification to Container Departure
We operate an accountable, engineer-driven manufacturing workflow built to provide overseas buyers absolute visibility at every phase of the project.
