About Kakadu:

Richard and his wife Catherine Whillas first constructed their own oilskin cloth using a 'wringer mangler' and a combination of oils and waxes found on the local land. Known for its functionality and durability, this cloth was ideal to protect them and their wharf equipment from the harsh Australian elements.

Strong canvas, refined oils & waxes and rugged cowhide are amongst the raw materials that give our products the guts to get the job done time & time again.

About the brand

With their 14 children in tow, Richard and Catherine Whillas ventured into crafting their own oilskin cloth using local resources.

This durable material shielded them from Australia's harsh elements and served as a foundation for their venture.As the family's expertise in outerwear grew, "Kakadu Traders Australia" emerged as a brand synonymous with quality, comfort, and durability.

Today, under the continued guidance of the Whillas family, Kakadu Traders Australia supplies rugged, reliable products to a global audience, built with strong canvas, refined oils, waxes, and rugged cowhide for enduring performance.
