Bates Surfaces

Bates Surfaces has been a leader in surface-coating building products since 1953. Today, we use the best UV-coating technology in the world and own one of the largest production lines in Australasia.

New Zealand’s largest applicator of UV coatings and a trusted supply partner to the local products industry for over 70 years.

We transform products, such as raw fibre cement panels, into pre-finished, factory-coated products – working with manufacturers as they make them part of their product catalogue.

In addition to fulfilling OSM orders for customers such as James Hardie and Laminex, we market our own brands – PureCoat™ kitchen and bathroom panels, PlyPlay™ pre-finished plywood wall and ceiling panels, and hygienic Fenta™ Ceiling Tiles.
