New colors from DekoTeak E&T Horizons

Gelman started her career in sales but decided to take a break from the workforce to have and raise her four children. As her children got older, Gelman returned to her career and began working for a small company that designed furniture. The company grew into what E&T Horizons is known for today with the popular DecoTeak and Design by Intent products.

DekoTeak includes over 250 products in its current line. The more popular products include small units for the shower, ranging in size from 18 to 24 inches. DekoTeak ensures its products range in size from compact for small compartments, to 36 inches for larger homes. The products have several features to be more accessible to a wide range of customers, including handles and height differences.

SwapAble shower furniture from DekoTeak E&T Horizons

In addition to the popular shower furniture from DekoTeak, the sustainable company also provides a wide range of teak outdoor furniture. In the wake of COVID-19 (coronavirus), more people have been staying at home and practicing social distancing protocols. This is one of the reasons the outdoor teak garden benches are so popular this season. This piece of furniture, along with other outdoor essentials, are selling incredibly fast.
