Dreaming of the perfect outdoor kitchen in Australia? Sunshine, BBQs, and fresh air are the hallmarks of the Aussie lifestyle—but our weather demands durability. From scorching sun to salty breezes and heavy rain, your outdoor kitchen must stand up to the elements. That’s why at Stonewood we use powder coating on our premium aluminium cabinets to deliver long-lasting performance and style.
Powder Coating: Built for Outdoor Durability
At Stonewood, we don’t just apply any powder coating—we use Dulux ProTexture to give our cabinets a premium textured look. We start by electrostatically applying a dry powder to the aluminium, then cure it in a hot oven. This active process transforms the powder into a robust, smooth finish that withstands tough outdoor conditions while resisting scratches, chips, and fading.

Top Benefits of Powder Coating
- Superior Durability: Withstands extreme weather without chipping or scratching.
- Rust Protection: Shields aluminium from moisture and salt—ideal for coastal and rainy climates.
- UV-Resistant: Retains colour under the harsh Aussie sun.
- Low Maintenance: Easily cleaned with hose or gerni.
- Eco-Friendly: A greener alternative to traditional liquid paints.
- Stylish Finish: Offers contemporary textures and colours, including Black, Monument, and Surfmist.
