FAQs

What are 35mm metal ceiling battens used for?

35mm metal ceiling battens are used to create a strong and level framework for fixing ceiling linings such as plasterboard. They're ideal for residential and commercial construction, offering consistent performance and long-term durability.

What are the benefits of using metal ceiling battens over timber?

Metal ceiling battens are straighter, lighter, and more dimensionally stable than timber. They won’t warp, twist, or rot over time, making them ideal for projects that demand accuracy and long-term reliability.

Are your 35mm ceiling battens compliant with NZ building standards?

Yes, our ceiling battens are manufactured locally from high-quality NZ Steel and meet all relevant New Zealand building code requirements.
