Somewhere in a woodshop, a leftover piece sits quietly.
It’s small.
Too narrow for a chair leg.
Too curved for a shelf.
Too rough for the showroom.
Most won’t see it again. It will be swept aside, sold by the kilo, or burned.
But we see something else.
At Teakore, that forgotten piece becomes a child’s first puzzle.
It becomes a gift that fits in the palm of a hand but lasts in memory for years.
It becomes a keyholder by the door, or a set of coasters that bring warmth to the table.
Our Way of Working
We collect what others leave behind.
From local woodshops and furniture house, any kind of solid, safe wood.
We craft with care
Whether it’s a toy set or a gift box, we ship in recyclable, sustainable materials.
We pack like we’re sending it to someone we love.
Because we are.
Our Journey Forward.
Reclaiming More Wood
Expanding our partnerships with local furniture makers to rescue larger volumes of offcuts and keep more wood out of waste streams.
1
Supporting More Artisans
Building steady employment and training opportunities for local craftspeople who carry forward the tradition of hand-making, while earning a fair livelihood.
2
Tracking Our Impact Transparently
Measuring the kilos of wood reclaimed and the number of artisans supported, so our growth is tied directly to measurable positive outcomes.

Impact & Sustainability
Every Teakore product begins with wood that would otherwise be wasted. By collecting and reusing offcuts, we not only prevent material from entering landfills or being burned, we also create meaningful work for local artisans and safe, sustainable products for families.
