What are slats?
Roughly speaking, Slats are usually made of long, square wood.
For classification: Typically, a batten is thinner than a beam, but thicker than a strip and narrower than a board.
Whether roof batten, fence batten or counter batten: The purpose makes the difference here – you will find out more about this below: under Purposes of the battens.
In terms of product safety and sustainability, GELO is also certified multiple times!

GELo slats
GELO slats are available in three different cuts: In addition to “normal” battens, e.g. for fences, there are also roof battens and counter battens.
All slats are available in packages, bundled with 6, 8 or 10 pieces. Since May 2007 we have been CE certified and are externally monitored by MPA Stuttgart. Your battens can therefore be provided with a CE stamp on request!

Applications of HOLZLatten
Differences in slats
The intended use makes the difference – Whether used as a fence batten, roof batten, counter batten or even as a shelf batten, the production and sorting differ. The S10 sorting according to DIN 4074-1 (or the S24 sorting according to DIN EN 14081-1) provides a guideline: it regulates the strength class according to which the batten may be used.
Different battens can be used in your construction projects. All Areas of application the slats include:
- Roof coverings
- substructures for walls and ceilings
- Drywall
- substructure for facades
- stage and shop construction
- etc.
Crucial Differences between "Normal" slats and C24 battens are:
- stronger incision size
- on knots carefully sorted
- red / marked forehead ends
- CE stamp with the strength class on each slat
