For a durable wooden decking made from local materials, you can find the company "Dauerholz" online.
The wood is said to be impregnated with stearin (?) – which makes it last longer.
There are some negative reviews in other forums, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the material is no good. I would appreciate any methods to extend the lifespan of local woods.
Does anyone know this … or an alternative? (I am concerned about environmental sustainability)

A batten is installed on the steel structure,I guess this is mostly done to avoid drilling too many holes in the steel ... (because you can screw directly into the battens). However, I want (or need) to save space (height) at the same time ... and battens do require some space as well ...Installing directly onto the steel (with spacers) seems to make the most sense to me ...
