2.6m x 150x250mm* Reclaimed A1 Grade Hardwood Sleeper (*Approx Sizes)

Used A1 Grade Hardwood Sleepers are sourced from the Benelux countries. Usually oak or beech, they were originally creosoted.

We are one of the largest stockists of reclaimed railway sleepers in the UK. Our 2.6m reclaimed railway sleeper is perfect for flower bed edgings, bases and bridges. You can create garden steps and soil retention structures - but we would not recommend them for use if growing vegetables or other edible crops.

• As per the EU Directive 2001/90/EC, Creosote treated timber must not be used where there is a risk of frequent (i.e. often occurring, habitual or constant) skin contact. It should not be used inside buildings, to make any kind of toys, furniture or containers used for growing foodstuffs to be intended for human or animal consumption.
• Always use gloves when handling creosote treated products. Creosote causes burns to skin and eyes. Ensure that all skin surfaces are protected and that safety eye goggles are used when cutting tar sleepers with hand saws or mechanical cutting equipment.
• Follow health and safety precautions and wash any contaminated hands or skin thoroughly after completing the task and especially before eating.
• Please note to avoid shakes and splitting, these sleepers often have metal cam plates
