Welcome to TS-teak
Mrs. Thanomkwan and Mr. Sunan Seehaluk
are locals of Uttaradit province by birth. They are awarded the state concession to operate the Teak forestry industry of Uttaradit province since 1967. They had envisioned the significance of Teak forestry, the maximization of Teakwood material usage, and creating maximum counts of job opportunities for the local people.
Consequently, in 1979 they set out to establish the Tha Sao Sawmill Limited Partnership, at Tha Sao Subdistrict, and the Tha Sak Sawmill Co., Ltd. at Tha Sak Subdistrict, Uttradit province, to recover raw teakwood materials left over from the concession cuts and reprocess them to maximize the usage of the stocks.
The underlying fact was that the major teakwood buyers would select only the required sizes and shapes and refused the unwanted stocks which are, in most cases, refused by all other buyers as well.
Then in 1984 Mrs. Thanomkwan and Mr. Sunan Seehaluk went overseas to observe and study the forest cultivation for economic purposes to bring back the know-how and apply them to their Teak Cultivation Project in light of the gradual depletion of natural forests justifying the replenishing cultivations for use as economic forests in the future.
