 FAQ’s: 

what are railway sleepers made of? 

Our railway sleepers are made from recycled hardwood timber. This timber undergoes a meticulous grading process to ensure a consistent quality throughout our product range. The grading, which includes categories like AA Grade, A Grade, B Grade, and C Grade, reflects the overall condition and quality of each sleeper. Not only are these sleepers eco-friendly, reclaimed from their past life on railways, but they are also seasoned timber. This makes them highly resistant to common issues such as twisting, warping, swelling, and shrinking. 

What is the grading system for railway sleepers? 

• AA Grade: Little to no wear, possess all square corners, and are perfect for projects that demand the utmost quality, like retaining walls and premium garden beds. 
• A Grade: Minimal signs of wear. They maintain straight edges, all four corners are in good condition, and they're apt for diverse applications, including constructing pathways and garden beds. 
• B Grade: Some cracking and structural wear. However, they remain durable, having all four corners intact, making them ideal for garden edging and rustic pathways. 
• C Grade: Well-worn sleepers, best for those seeking a rustic touch or are on a budget. Their edges are worn and they might have some cracks, but they're perfect for garden edging or adding character to landscapes.
