A New way to approach your outdoor area

Sakkho, a new small Australian business is attempting to change the way you approach your next home renovation or building.

Trying to cater for various industries, the business is now launching his new Diamond Teak tiles.

Applications are endless as Sakkho tiles can be used to build decking, to cover your traditional concrete, for landscaping creations, architectural or interior designs such as wall covering, around the pool or SPA area, as alternative to stepping stones and recently to create outdoor furniture.

What are the Diamond Teak Tiles?
Manufactured using teak, one of the strongest hardwood timbers originating from South East Asia and sourced from the sustainable plantation of Pehutani, Sakkho tiles are made out of 32 pieces of teak of 10 different sizes as outdoor and indoor applications are endless.

Sakkho teak timber floor tiles transform outdoor areas with fantastic attention to details and stunning visual effects. Left untreated, natural, oiled, stained or protected using the recommended coating, Sakkho tiles have versatile applications.

Assembled by hand, the craftsmanship meet the highest standards. Tiles are individually inspected to ensure impeccable build quality. Each "Diamond" tile has 32 individual pieces of ten different sizes. Sakkho tiles weight approximately 2 Kg each. To achieve an impeccable finish, gaps between slats are sanded by hand.

Teak by itself is renown to be the "king" of timber in terms of durability, its resistance to warping, rotting and to the outside elements. Teak was used for centuries to build temples in Asia and is the preferred timber used in shipbuilding or decoration.
