Factory Coating

When left uncoated all timber will naturally weather to a silver-grey. Millworks offers a range of factory coatings that serve both decorative and protective purposes, producing consistent results with a range of aesthetic options to suit your project.

By utilising Millworks advanced in-house coating line, the risk of common onsite coating pitfalls such as weather variations, application rates and project timing delays can be eliminated. Our premium finishes have been developed in collaboration with industry leaders for consistent results, designed specifically for Millworks timber species and our in-house processes.

  • High-quality, consistent finish applied under controlled factory conditions.

  • Coated on all four sides for increased durability and timber protection.

  • No requirements for additional labour or equipment for onsite coating.

  • Quick installation, reduces delays caused by unpredictable weather.

  • Reduced maintenance programme compared to onsite application.

  • Wide range of aesthetic options when combined with factory-applied surface textures.
