Pressure treatment of battens
These timbers are all pressure treated with Tanalith E, or similar, timber preservative. It is important to the durability of the batten that any cross cuts are treated with two coats of end-grain treatment are applied. These timbers are tanalised for situations where the timber may be subjected to the occasional risk of wetting from rain. However, they are not intended for prolonged exposure to rain or stored (or used) in ground contact.
