Walnut is a premium dark hardwood look - deep chocolate brown with flowing grain. On woodgrain aluminium battens, that grain is sublimated into a baked architectural powder coat over marine-grade aluminium, so you get the look of Walnut timber with none of the oiling, warping, splitting or rot.
As battens, this finish reads as repeating linear blades rather than a solid surface - the grain shows on each face while the gaps throw shadow lines and let light and air through, the look that defines so much contemporary screening.
Luxurious and dark. Walnut adds depth and a high-end feel to entries, feature walls and commercial fitouts. As woodgrain aluminium battens, it carries that character while staying non-combustible, UV-stable and dimensionally stable - the practical way to keep a Walnut look on a project that has to last.
Where Walnut works best as battens
The Walnut finish suits premium entries, feature walls and fitouts. As battens specifically, it is well placed on:
- Privacy screens and fencing infill
- Ceiling and soffit linings
- Facade blades and sun screening
- Feature walls and entry statements
- Pergolas, breezeways and patios
- Room dividers and commercial fitouts
