DECO Australia, a leader in timber-look aluminium building products, has released a new lightweight 40 mm Series in its two-piece DecoBatten QuickClick range. Available in 40 mm × 40 mm and 40 mm × 20 mm profiles – with 40 mm × 80 mm due out in the second half of 2024 – the new 40 mm aluminium battens bridge the gap between DecoBatten’s current 50 mm and 25 mm Series.
Innovatively designed, the new 40 mm Series now offers the lightest batten profile in the QuickClick range and provides even greater design flexibility in applications where weight is a key consideration, like batten garage doors.
“It’s not just an extension of our current DecoBatten range,” said general manager Richard Hamber. “The 40 mm Series has been innovatively designed to offer our lightest two-piece batten solution, saving over two kilograms* per square metre compared to our other profiles.”
As well as the three batten covers, the 40 mm Series includes three base options: a standard single base with no visible fixings; a single SpaceBase offering a leg to create a fully enclosed batten cladding system with perfect 40 mm spacing; and a Double SpaceBase that can fix two batten covers with a 20mm gap between each.
Aligned with more traditional timber batten sizes, the aluminium 40 mm DecoBatten QuickClick Series is the perfect option when looking for a more durable and long-lasting timber alternative - especially if replacing existing battens that have rotted, warped or degraded in the harsh Australian climates. And pre-finished in a choice of DECO’s wide range of low-maintenance finishes, including its leading Super Durable DecoWood powdercoat finish, no one will ever know that it’s not real timber.
Made in Australia from non-combustible aluminium, DecoBatten offers a durable and low-maintenance option for your next project.
