    Are battens needed for flooring?

    I've been researching a lot. 9mm thick battens fitted in between floor ribs. Are they necessary for a 9mm or 12mm thick plywood? Would they be used if only you screwed the floor to battens? Aren't the factory ribs spaced for flooring anyway without the need for battens? I read a post I'm sure...

    Rubber flooring - which is best and how to install?

    I've got a T6.1 which is ply-lined and four years ago I stuck down some carpet lining. It's now looking really tatty and, as it's really just a van (rather than a camper) I'm now thinking some rubber on the floor might be better. I'd be grateful for anyone's recommendations and also some...
