Siberian Larch battens are a fantastic option if you want to build slatted fencing or planning to clad a shed, pergola or even your house. The battens have a beautiful planed finish, so they are smooth to the touch. Siberian Larch battens have a wonderful colouring and an attractive wood grain.

Siberian Larch is a very popular timber choice for its appearance and durability. It is used widely by Designers and Architects and is considered one of the best timbers for exterior use. Siberian Larch battens add a long lasting, contemporary look to any project. Due to the high density the Siberian Larch is hard wearing and resistant to decay and rot – perfect for exposed elevations. The shapes and patterns of the grain are very aesthetically pleasing and provide real character. The colour is normally honey, straw to light brown. It looks particularly good when stained with Cedar oil as this enhances the timbers colour or it can be left to naturally age to silver grey. The colouring can be protected and enhanced using a UV protection oil or can be allowed to naturally age to a handsome silver grey.

Siberian Larch originates from Siberia where the weather is extremely cold. The trees are very slow growing making the timber dense and tight grained with minimal knots. These characteristics make Larch perfect for external cladding, fencing as well as other features like joinery, decking, and flooring.
