Timber battens are small-section softwood products used extensively in roofing, cladding, fencing, packing and general construction. Typically produced from European softwood, battens may be supplied untreated or preservative treated depending on application.

Roofing battens are commonly graded and treated to meet relevant UK construction requirements, while general-purpose battens offer a practical solution for fixing, spacing, support and light framing work.

Typical uses: roofing, tiling, cladding support, fencing, packing, counter-battening and general construction.
