A batten is a narrow strip of metal, wood, or composite material used in construction to secure or reinforce building components. In roofing and cladding systems, battens create structural support, control airflow, and provide a base for attaching panels or tiles. They also conceal joints, enhance weather resistance, and contribute to aesthetic alignment.
At Xtra Metal Group, we engineer high-performance metal battens tailored to project-specific demands—from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys for coastal environments to fire-rated steel profiles for commercial builds. With 30+ years of global expertise, our solutions integrate precision engineering, durability testing, and design flexibility, ensuring seamless compatibility with walls, ceilings, and facades. Customizable dimensions, finishes, and load capacities make our battens ideal for architects and contractors prioritizing both functionality and visual cohe
