Keep your timber looking beautiful,
for longer
We have a full range of gorgeous, natural timber oils and stains. There will be something to suit your needs, whether it's staining a deck, playground or outdoor furniture and walls.
The beauty of timber is that it has natural diversity. No two trees are the same, so no two pieces of timber are either. Our oils and stains bring out the natural beauty of timber, while maintaining strength and longevity. And there are no harmful chemicals or VOCs, so you know your home is safe and natural.
What's the harm of traditional
oils and stains?
Oil and synthetic based stains are usually made with acrylic, turpentine, and urethane binders. These can contain harmful chemicals that release toxic VOCs. These volatile organic compounds can cause a range of problems for people and animals — including skin, eye and lung irritation, headaches, dizziness and breathing difficulties.
While the problems ease as the smell dissipates, some people suffer for weeks, or even months afterwards. The long term issues associated with VOCs are unknown, but painters can suffer ongoing breathing issues and have been linked to cancer.
After all, a natural product such as timber deserves a beautiful natural finish.
Why Pure Eco Painting?
Because we care about our beautiful natural environment, we care about the quality of the work, and we care about you. We want you to have a beautiful and safe home for many years to come.
Our products provide non-toxic finishes for all your interior and exterior timber. And we apply them with care and skill. From Macrocarpa to Cedar, new cladding to restoring old faded timber, we do it all.
We start with a walk-through of your home, looking at the technical issues that may arise. We can restore oil substrates and cladding, cleaning timber of spores and mould. Then, we can re-oil or stain to bring out the best of the timber finish. We can also remove paint from existing windows and architraves, oiling the timber to make that Rimu shine again.
We listen to what you want, and together, we plan how best to achieve your goals. Then, we give you your free, no obligation quote.
Why choose natural products?
We have a range of natural oils and stains that contain ultra low VOCs, and that cause no harm to the environment. These allow you to keep your home looking amazing, naturally.
These products are a similar price to traditional products, and often more effective and long lasting. A natural stain or oil adds value to your home — not only in terms of aesthetics, but also knowing there is one less source of toxic chemicals in your life.
Our range of products
Deck & Exterior Oils
Using plant oils, wood rosins and earth oxides, these oils will keep your deck, fence and exterior timber walls looking great for years to come. Generally these oils use pine oil and eucalyptus oils to provide a natural fungicide to avoid moss, lichen and mould build-up. The natural oils actually feed the timber, protecting it from splitting and fading. Excellent for imported hardwoods like Jarrah and Kwila, or perfect for local Pine and Macrocarpa decks too. With a range of colours from dark graphite through to simply enhancing natural colour, there's an option for you. Once applied, you can re-apply every few years or leave the timber to gracefully weather and turn silver, if you prefer.
Internal Timber Substrates
From natural waxes and oils through to hard varnishes, there is a natural product for every finish. Varnishes are developed from resin, and provide a silky, reflective surface that looks incredible in a contemporary or traditional home. Timber waxes give lustre and shine to faded timber. Using natural products, you can ensure your home is free from VOCs but also looks beautiful.
Pure Interior Oil
A food-safe, Ultra Low VOCs penetrating oil for all interior timber surfaces — from Rimu and Matai to pine and oak. Nourishes timber from within rather than coating the surface, allowing the wood to breathe naturally while enhancing grain depth and warmth. Suitable for benchtops, shelving, furniture, architraves, and window frames. Available in clear and a range of subtle tints.
Hard Floor Oil
Specifically formulated for the demands of timber flooring, this plant-based oil penetrates deep into the wood fibres to create a hardwearing, durable finish that resists scuffs, moisture, and daily foot traffic. Unlike surface coatings, it repairs easily — spot re-oil worn areas without sanding the entire floor back. Compatible with all NZ hardwoods including Rimu, Kauri, and Matai.
Danish Oil
A classic blend of Tung oil and citrus peel extract — entirely natural, solvent-free, and safe from the moment it's applied. Ideal for furniture, wooden trim, toys, and joinery where a hand-rubbed, natural finish is preferred over a hard lacquer. Easy to apply, quick-drying, and renewable. Not recommended for timber flooring or high-moisture areas.
