Aluminium Timber Slats The Look of Wood with the Longevity of Metal

Aluminium timber slats are a game-changer in modern design delivering the warmth of real wood with the strength and reliability of aluminium. Whether used for fencing, gates, screens, cladding, or pergolas, these slats bring timeless style without the ongoing maintenance that natural timber requires.

At MetalGrain, we manufacture premium aluminium slats finished in ultra-realistic woodgrain textures using advanced sublimation technology. Our products are engineered to withstand the elements while offering the natural appearance of cedar, walnut, teak, and other classic wood tones.

What Are Aluminium Timber Slats?

Aluminium timber slats are extruded aluminium profiles coated with a durable, fade-resistant powder layer and finished with woodgrain patterns. Designed to mimic the look of real wood, these slats are lightweight, weatherproof, and ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
