Pressure-treated with a brown preservative, these softwood railway sleepers have an expected lifespan of around 8 to 10 years. This treatment process ensures deep penetration of the wood preservative into the timber cells of the railway sleepers, offering long-lasting protection against fungal decay, insect attack and rot. The tanalised railway sleepers have a brown colouration initially which will fade to a honey brown and finally to a silvery grey over time when exposed to the sun. However, if you would prefer, these sleepers can be easily stained to suit your aesthetics with our Barrettine Wood Protective Treatment. It is also advised that this treatment is applied if the railway sleepers are cut - using a circular saw, chainsaw or handsaw - as newly exposed cut surfaces will otherwise be exposed.
Applications include:
- Lawn edging
- Sleeper retaining walls
- Ponds and water features
- Border edging
- Garden steps
- Decking
