Abstract: A flooring product (10) comprises a wood panel having an L-shaped surround (18) the base of which is located below the wood panel. A plurality of parallel aluminium battens (20) are connected to the base of the panel. These battens comprise a groove (30). In use two flooring products (10,50) having similar joint arrangements are secured together by locating the base of the surround (18) of each product in the groove (30) in the elongate members of the other product. The connection can not be disengaged unless one of the flooring products (10,50) is tilted relative to the other.
