<P>The first test of teak use appeared in the 4th century, when people have recognized that teak as a kind of wood in the maritime has a strong advantage - can be anti-ants and sea erosion. The rise of the great navigational era and competition for maritime hegemony prompted the European countries to have greater demand for teak. At that time the demand for the strong I am afraid to count the United Kingdom, and in order to build its huge empire fleet,<a href='http://beachbedwholesaler.com/fold-beach-bed/1069.html'>camping folding reclining chair bargain</a> the British need a lot of teak resources.</P> <P>Unfortunately, the British itself is not rich in teak, from the beginning of the afforestation also takes a very long time (teak material takes at least 60 years, generally need a hundred years). So the Queen of England will look to the rich teak in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia produced teak country mainly in India, Thailand and Myanmar, and the British first choice is the goal has been engaged in teak trade in India. However,<a href='http://beachbedwholesaler.com/bar-table/1981.html'>inexpensive chair bed</a> after several years of explosive export in India, teak resources have shrunk dramatically until they can not continue to produce teak. So in 1852, Queen Victoria ordered more teak from Myanmar.</P> <P>By the British commissioned by the famous German forestry scientist Dr. Brantis came to Myanmar to build the Royal Navy and collect more teak. He found that the origin of Myanmar teak quality is better than other producing areas. So he arranged a complete set of comprehensive utilization system to ensure the sustainable development of teak. This system is tailored for a limited amount of wood per year for Myanmar's teak resources.<a href='http://beachbedwholesaler.com/beach-chair/1800.html'>latest popular 40 wide folding table</a></P> <P>The system guarantees a maximum of 500,000 tons of teak production to the UK, while not damaging the future growth of the forest. Since then, Myanmar's teak resources have been scientifically and effectively protected. In the 19th century, the teakwood resources in India were exhausted; in the twentieth century,<a href='http://beachbedwholesaler.com/beach-chair/1679.html'>standard double bed size dimensions</a> Thailand banned teak harvesting; while Myanmar became a few countries that could stabilize teak exports. The history of teak in addition to shipbuilding, but also used as a temple building and European architectural furniture decoration, these buildings and furniture are still shining, enduring.</P> |
