Natural Elegance Meets Sustainability: Blackbutt Timber Enhanced with CUTEK® Extreme CD50 at Herston’s Award-Winning Oral Health Facility

Australia’s largest tertiary oral health facility in the inner-Brisbane suburb of Herston, combines natural sophistication with sustainable building materials. Pre-coated in clear CUTEK® Extreme CD50 prior to installation, the beautiful natural hardwood features are injected to add warmth, depth and colour.

Blackbutt timber ‘fins’ with a matching staircase handrail make a striking statement in the cutting-edge facility, which was awarded three top spots at the 2016 Queensland Architecture Awards: for Public Architecture, Interior Architecture and Sustainable Architecture.

CUTEK® Extreme CD50 enhances the hardwood’s natural beauty by enhancing the subtle differences in grain and colour. Further, exposed to UV through tinted glass, CUTEK® Extreme CD50 will help to resist the greying effects of the sun for longer. This partnered with the long-term dimensional stability properties of a CUTEK® exterior timber oil will keep the interior timber looking great for a long time to come.

About the
Professional

CUTEK® is a powerful wood protection system… but is also so much more than that. CUTEK® timber oils offer powerful protection while enhancing the natural beauty of timber. CUTEK® timber oils diffuse deeply into timber to repel moisture, maintain structural integrity and ensure the longest possible service life.

What sets CUTEK® oils apart is their ‘self-healing’ action. Once diffused, CUTEK® oils remain permanently mobile in the timber actively driving out moisture to minimise cupping, warping and splitting, even after being cut or perforated with fasteners. CUTEK® penetrating oils have a 30-year proven track record of standing up to our New Zealand climate and other harsh environments around the world.
