A timber batten is a narrow strip of wood used in construction for structural support, cladding, or aesthetic spacing. Traditionally, battens secure roofing/siding materials or create ventilated façades by maintaining consistent gaps. While timber offers natural aesthetics, it faces durability challenges like rot, insect damage, and warping.
At Xtra Metal Group, we engineer metal battens (aluminum, steel, or zinc alloys) that replicate timber’s profile while enhancing performance. Our solutions eliminate maintenance, improve fire resistance, and withstand harsh climates, backed by 30+ years of expertise in global architectural projects. Choose from precision-engineered profiles or fully bespoke designs for seamless integration with walls, ceilings, or façades.
