What is Scandinavian Redwood?

Planed on all sides for a smooth finish these fencing battens are perfect for building a Redwood slat fence. The pressure treatment process protects the wood making it resistant to weather so it lasts in harsh environments. The ends of our battens are also treated due to them being cut to size prior to treatment. This means the battens are protected all round for maximum durability.

Scandinavian Redwood, also known as  European Redwood, is a very popular softwood species that is used for joinery and fencing. It is a sustainably sourced timber, imported from forests in Scandinavia. Softwoods when used outdoors need to be treated to protect them from weather so they last longer. The problem is that this treatment process makes the wood unattractive to look at!  You must of seen wood with a green or dark brown , it just does not fit the bill if you want an attractive slatted fence. Luckily our design team searched until they found a timber treatment that would not only protect the timber but would also look amazing. Our treatment allows you to still see the grain and natural variation in colour of the boards.

Redwood Batten Colour

The colour treatment of these battens is opaque allowing the wood grain to be visible through the attractive brown colour. This colour is applied as part of the  pressure treatment process and is not the natural colour of the wood.
The battens are normally darker when the battens are new, this is because battens take a few weeks to dry out after treatment. Once the battens are fully dry you can apply a UV protector to protect the colour and prevent it fading. See our woodcare section for UV protection stain.
