Charred Brushwood Railway Sleeper | 2.4m X 250mm X 125mm

Inspired by the ancient Japanese art of Yakisugi (also known in the West as Shou Sugi Ban) – these sleepers have been treated with fire! Yakisugi is the process of strengthening and treating timber by charring the surface followed by brushing and treating it. This leaves a unique, distinctive pattern that is undeniably beautiful. These eye-catching sleepers are perfect for creating contrast with your garden or house, making any home or garden project induce a sense of mystery and allure.  This treatment process ensures a deep penetration of the wood preservative into the timber cells of the railway sleepers, giving these softwood sleepers an expected lifespan of around 8 to 10 years. Available in our most popular size, 2.4m x 250mm x 125mm, these railway sleepers can be used for a variety of other landscaping and applications, with softwood sleepers being most popular for gardening, such as raised beds, lawn edging, sleeper retaining walls, water features, decking, garden steps and border edging.  The dark colouration of our brown treated railway sleepers makes them an excellent addition to lighter backdrops to add contrast and sophistication.*Images are a representation of the product and will not be identical to the product received.
