CUTEK® & Barrel View

Hidden in the heart of Queensland wine country, Barrel View was designed to reflect what is the most popular tourist attraction in the area: wine. Just a short drive from an assortment of Ballandean wineries, three barrels invite guests to experience the local countryside in a whole new way.

For such a unique project, the owners of the Barrel View architecturally designed and built the cabins themselves. The entire exterior is cladded in high-quality Spotted Gum timber, sourced from a local sawmill and precoated in CUTEK® Extreme CD50. To further enhance the protection of the timber, it was given additional coats of CUTEK® Extreme CD50 and tinted with CUTEK® Colourtone, Sela Brown.

By adding a CUTEK® Colourtone to the project, this ensures the timber will retain its natural colour for as long as possible while also protecting it from the harsh Australian sun. CUTEK® Colourtones provide timber with UV protection, maintaining the desired colour of the project and highlighting the natural beauty of the timber.

CUTEK® oils are unique.

What sets CUTEK® timber oil apart is it’s ‘self-healing’ action. Once diffused, CUTEK® oils remain permanently mobile in the timber, actively driving out moisture to minimise cupping, warping, and splitting. This protection is maintained even after being cut or perforated with fasteners. CUTEK® penetrating oils have a 30-year proven track record of standing up to the harshest of Australian environments.

What are you trying to achieve with your upcoming timber project?

Are you looking to protect your wood from moisture and allow it to naturally weather in the harsh Australian UV rays? Or would you also like to retain the natural colour of your timber for longer? Perhaps you would like to alter the colour of your timber entirely?

Whatever you are trying to achieve, CUTEK® has the answer. CUTEK® as a clear oil protects your timber from the damaging effects of moisture but allows the timber to naturally weather to a sliver patina upon exposure to sunlight. Alternatively, mix one of our 16 CUTEK® Colourtones through the oil for longer colour retention or alteration.

Either way, rest assured in the knowledge that your timber is powerfully protected by CUTEK®.
