A proud homegrown brand from Penang
Behind BALAK’s is a bunch of kids from the foot of the mountain in Penang, Malaysia. This is where we grow, live and dream. Each piece of inimitable timber a symbol of our unique flair and character; our unbreakable spirit and unity the glue.

PROUDLY MADE IN MALAYSIA
“BALAK’s engineers quality solid wood into functional masterpieces to bring nature and ultimate ergonomic comfort into your workspaces”.

Wood as a gift of nature
We honour raw materials as gifts of nature. Our robust, durable products are characterised by organically-developed wood patterns, colours and textures – these are entirely unique and impossible to replicate.
FOUNDER'S MESSAGE
BALAK’s isn’t a brand of great idealism, it’s more about realism. We don’t have grand plans of benefiting the society or changing the world, we do what we do for ourselves and the people dear to us. Working day and night just for those leaving a light on.
“10,000 hours is the amount of practice you must put in to attain mastery.” – Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell. Geniuses aren’t born; they’re made. If you work 8 hours a day and 5 days a week, then 5 years is all it takes to achieve excellence.
You don’t have to be born brimming with talent or intelligence; no haloes or wings needed. Just like us.
So, if your heart and mind are in the right places, why aren’t you getting what you want?
— Lucas Eng, Founder of BALAK’s
