Further information

This pallet of green-treated railway sleepers contains 60 sleepers measuring 1.2m x 200mm x 100mm each. These railway sleepers can be delivered nationwide using our pallet network courier or via crane within the South East of England.  We also offer a FREE Click & Collect service from our trade counter in Finchingfield, near Braintree in Essex.

Pressure-treated with a green 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 light 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.

Available in handy 1.2m lengths, these railway sleepers are perfect for use in conjunction with our pallet of 2.4m railway sleepers to create rectangular raised beds.  The natural light brown colouration of our green-treated railway sleepers makes them a great choice for brightening darker spaces such as against black or brown fence panels.  These railway sleepers can also be used for a variety of other landscaping and applications, with softwood sleepers being most popular for gardening, such as:

  • Lawn edging
  • Sleeper retaining walls
  • Ponds and water features
  • Border edging
  • Garden steps
  • Decking
