Technical protection for New Zealand's most demanding projects
Fire protection, corrosion prevention, and asset maintenance delivered to the country's largest commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects. Specialist work, robust systems, and a team trusted in live, high-risk environments nationwide.
A specialist contractor for complex, compliance-heavy work
Cake has spent two decades protecting structures and assets across New Zealand's most significant projects — from major commercial builds and transport infrastructure to utilities, water, and industrial facilities. Our work sits where technical capability, safety, and compliance matter most. We don't supply labour; we solve problems and deliver protection that lasts.
What we do
Our work is delivered across three core areas, each backed by specialist teams, accredited systems, and nationwide capability.
Fire Protection
Intumescent coatings and passive fire protection for structural steel, timber, and other substrates — protecting people and property across major commercial and industrial buildings.

Asset Protection
Protective coatings, abrasive blasting, corrosion mitigation, and long-term maintenance that extend asset life and reduce whole-of-life cost across infrastructure and industrial environments.
