About Us
Kakadu (ka - kuh - doo) is one of the world’s oldest, most remote, diverse and dangerous national parks. Captivating, inhospitable, and covering almost 7,700 square miles, Kakadu's ancient landscapes have been shaped over thousands of years of drought and flooding rains. Rugged escarpment and stone country changes to savanna woodland, thundering waterfalls, lush rainforest, coastal floodplains, tidal mudflats and dense mangroves – where 10,000 deadly crocs lurk.
This is where we play, and this is the land that inspired the development of the unparalleled Kakadu range. The Kakadu brand is backed by more than 80 years heritage developing innovative, Australian designed, reliable, performance-driven outdoor products. Our group comprises a portfolio of leading Australian brands which can be found during a walk through any campsite, weekend event, or beach party.
The Kakadu collection is now available in the US and features many of our bestsellers: the Outback Shower, Ozpig Wood Fire Stove, BlockOut® Cot Tent, etc.
