Product description
Dressed softwood timber batten with a uniquely formulated and contoured
resilient foam layer adhered to the underside. Manufactured from:

■ Osmose treated timber, currently the most environmentally friendly
   preservation available  

■ 100% recyclable closed cell, non-crosslinked foam which meets the
   requirements of EN 12402-7:2006 clauses 4.8.2.3 and 4.8.2.4 for
   thermal stability and compressibility.

Product features
■ Three depths available – 52mm, 67mm and 77mm nominal. Depth
   measurements are based on full domestic loading having been
   applied. For uncompressed dimensions add 3mm

■ Owing to the high compressive strength of the foam the resilience
   strong, resulting in minimal deflection under load. As such only one
   type of batten is required removing the inconvenience of a separate
   high load-bearing product

■ The distinctive surface relief of the foam layer minimises contact
   between the lower surface of the batten and sub-floor, whilst the
   special chemical composition creates a material with excellent
   acoustic properties.
