Why Choose Champion Timber Battens?

Our BS 5534 Graded and Certified Premier Roof Battens are easily recognized by their yellow color, a clear indicator of compliance with strict British standards. Coloring is used by different manufacturers (yellow, blue, or red) to help differentiate from non-compliant Type A green battens, unsuitable for pitched roofing. Each batten comes with a full Manufacturer's Declaration of Performance and UK Declaration of Conformity for guaranteed compliance.

What Are Roof Battens Used For?

Our treated timber battens are not just for roofing. While their primary role is to act as a fixing point for roofing materials like shingles or tiles, they are versatile enough for general-purpose use. They’re perfect for fencing support, small garden structures, and more. With Champion Timber, you can rely on the quality and durability of our products, whatever your project.
