Welcome to Cooperage
Wine and Beer Making Supplies.
Cooperage Wine & Beer Making Supplies owes its origins to Ray Wheeler's late father,
Bruce Wheeler. He was a cooper by trade who started the original business in Rozelle in 1945,
calling it Union Cooperage.
During the 1950's and 1960's Union Cooperage's main business was repairing
wooden beer barrels for all the major breweries in Sydney and that was where Ray served his
apprenticeship as a cooper (barrel maker).
