Green Incised Softwood UC4 Treated Sleeper

Sleepers are a fantastic multipurpose feature for garden and landscaping projects. Popular uses include raised garden beds, pathways, edging or borders, steps, and even fences or walls. These incised softwood sleepers are made from European softwood and pressure treated to resist decay and rot. Classified as UC4, these softwood sleepers are suitable for permanent contact with the ground outdoors. It’s no secret that UC4 treated softwood is the best choice for timber garden products. The treatment process involves kiln drying the timber down to around 28% moisture content before treatment, allowing it to penetrate deep into the wood. Without this intense kiln drying, water in the timber will prevent as much treatment getting into the material which makes it unsuitable for garden use.
