Roofers Choice Blue Factory Graded Batten is produced by Vida Wood SE. Sweden’s largest independent producer of timber products and is only produced from Swedish Redwood (PNSY) or Swedish Whitewood (WPCA) at eight strategically placed sawmills. These sawmills are accredited by S.P. in Sweden (Svenska Proving) which is the Swedish equivalent of our British Standards.
Environment: Vida Wood obtains its timber from over 10,000 Swedish
woodland owners. In partnership with these owners they ensure that for every tree felled, three are planted. Consequently we can guarantee that all Roofers Choice Blue Factory Graded Battens come from a sustainable source and are PEFC certified.

batten that meets all aspects of BS5534 : 2003 + A1 : 2010 and eliminates the need for grading on site. This is now a requirement for all NHBC homes.
