Solid Timber Battens

Featurecraft’s decorative timber battens are a time-honoured way to beautify architectural environments. Timber battens – also referred to as wooden battens – are hard-wearing, impact-resistant components that can be pieced together to create complex timber batten ceiling systems, timber batten feature walls, and timber batten exterior soffits. These versatile components make it easy to divide environments into zones, draw attention to different areas to create dynamic visual flow, and generally elevate the aesthetics of any building.

When it comes to using a timber batten system, the options are limited only by imagination. Featurecraft offers many choices in timber species, stains, and profiles, ensuring that each timber batten system can be customised to the heart’s desire. Our interior timber battens are easy to install, enabling straight and curved timber batten feature walls, or supporting timber batten ceiling systems upon suspended ceilings. Batten spacing and batten sizes can be customised to a high degree, making it remarkably simple to create features for any environment. To complement our timber batten range, we also offer aluminium battens – these robust, non-corrosive products are ideal for projects that require a higher level of durability.

Additional Information

To ensure the sustainability of our timber battens per NZ and international standards, we have achieved both FSC® Chain of Custody and PEFC™ certification. Our wooden battens are all finished in our Hawke’s Bay factory, and our expert craftspeople take a hands-on approach to each piece, giving our decorative timber battens a truly personal touch. Interior timber battens can be specially treated to improve their fire safety rating, making them a safer choice for timber ceiling battens per NZ standards.

There is no real debate about timber battens, NZ architecture has made its sentiments clear: this is one of the most powerful tools in a designer’s arsenal. Featurecraft offers absolute design flexibility to ensure that our products are perfectly suited for each project. For example, NZ architects using our timber ceiling battens have often requested custom shapes such as tapers and waves, demonstrating how the timber batten encourages creative ingenuity. Likewise, our timber batten feature walls can be crafted to almost any specification. With the expert care and guidance of our craftspeople, the solid timber batten is sure to satisfy any project’s needs.
